Well, this is easy to pin down: vanilla lip balm. The weird artsy-fartsy bottle design gives no clue whether it's on purpose or by accident.

I only have a decant of this, but I too am not a fan of Avant-Garde bottles. I did see a video review where it looked like the cap was pretty ridiculous, but the bottle seemed somewhat normal looking, albeit, skinny. Longevity for me was 24+ hrs, but didn't project much after 6 hours. The opening was my favorite part and wish some of the incense would have remained after a few hours, but the gourmand drydown was very pleasant. I understand your first statement and reason for leaving it there :)

Shortly after coming up with my statement I did my two minutes of googling (i.e. ‘research’) to find out what you just pointed out. I have no trouble in admitting that the connection wasn’t obvious to me by sheer intuition. Having already received a couple of likes, I thought leaving it like that was the right thing to do, though. While I believe I can appreciate the concept as much as the next guy with MA in fine arts, my opinion remains: the thing looks ridiculous and has poor functionality.

With a little research, one should have a clue that the "weird artsy-fartsy" bottle is actually in the shape of an organ stop, which is also where the name for this and the other SAUF fragrances comes from. I can see where one might get a lip balm of lipstick vibe from this as there is almost a hint of iris in the dry down, but I have never smelled lip balm this good.
