Another Ambroxan Bottled as Niche Perfume

Why does Le Labo ANOTHER 13 smell so familiar to me? Maybe because it is essentially a base in near ubiquity at this point in perfume history. Ambroxan plus some musk. And, for heaven's sake, don't forget the iso-E-super!

Okay, so I already sniffed both Escentric Molecules MOLECULE 02 and Juliette Has A Gun NOT A PERFUME. Been there, done that. Don't need a bottle, that's for sure, but I have a generous decant from Guusje.

I'll keep it on hand, in case I "forget" what ambroxan smells like. In fact, that seems quite unlikely to happen, as I feel that through this three-part exercise I am now capable of recognizing ambroxan bases in more complex creations.

I do hope that Le Labo will now return to making perfumes.

Respectfully disagree....I have owned Molecule 02 and JHAG and don't find that this one is at all similar to the two. Those two contain simply...Ambroxan, which I find is a very comforting note. This is more complex than just the one note. I find it incredibly attractive and it is one of my most complimented scents. I could never be without it...but then again...I am a huge fan of Iso, clean musk, and Ambroxan. :)
