Resinous Reglisse
Dabbed on, this perfume smells different than when it is sprayed. Initially, I loved it because it smelled just like myrrh but when I smelled it later, the myrrh is secondary to the creamy licorice. There is a nice comforting vanilla there and the tea connects all the notes together. This is quite beautiful but a little heavy on the licorice side and not enough on the myrrh.

The bottle is small and made of some type of ceramic. If it was not for the pig-nose top, I would love it even more.

Milk and licorice pudding
A single nugget of myrrh mercy-drowned in a pudding bowl of waxen vanilla, with a sweet amber accord thickening it up like arrowroot. Myrrh will out, of course, and in Myrrhiad, it comes through as the soft, sappy licorice accent running along the back of the scent like rubber tracking. Think the chewy licorice vines you get in the pick n’ mix at the cinema that are more texture than flavor, rather than the oily, resinous, or mushroomy twang you have in real myrrh. This is essentially myrrh for myrrh pussies, which might be an accurate way of describing me. Balmy, vanillic – Bvlgari Black-lite. Love it.

Licore myriad
I get more licorice than myrrh from this, but I love it! It's a very interesting take on licorice that is quite sweet, but not really gourmand. The myrrh stops it from fully going there, it adds a medicinal, borderline plasticy layer on top of the other notes, which sounds weird but really elevates the scent.

In the opening there is something about this that reminds me of a glass of fizzy cola with a slice of lemon, albeit not quite as sugary and with an undertone of black tea. The licorice, myrrh and leather are already noticeable in the background and become stronger. This is one of those fragrances where all the listed notes are detectable, but there is also something more to it.
The blend of licorice and leather really evokes a soft, shiny, black texture, so I imagine that this would be great with black leather clothes, if you like to match your scents to your outfits.

To me this feels feminine in a confident, assertive way. Cool and original with a sexy sweetness underneath it. But I think if a man wore it, it would come across differently, and still be appealing. That's the magic of good unisex fragrance.

When it is gray and cold
Myrrhiad is exactly one of those perfumes that have been created for gray and cold days.
Honey, vanilla, resin, smoke, and a dark hint of tea combine beautifully here. Moreover, the scent is a truly well-crafted gourmand that proves to be very elegant. Myrrhiad wraps around the body like a thick blanket. One cannot help but snuggle in. Soft music in the background, the fireplace crackling, warm tea in hand, the gentle trickle of the room fountain, softly dimmed light, feet snugly wrapped in grandma's wool socks, and outside, the falling snowflakes. That’s all you need to sink deeply into the oasis of comfort within yourself.

As Ergoproxy already wrote: This fragrance does not have a crazy, spectacular scent development, and that is by no means disturbing. It is neither complex, nor do you have to dissect it a thousand times to understand what this perfume wants to achieve. What it wants to convey to the world. To oneself. You know that immediately when you apply it. It is simply a scent that creates a cozy atmosphere. In the room. In the mind. In the heart. Wonderfully underscored by magnificent myrrh, along with a strong hint of black tea, gently mixed with a splash of lemon at first, which flows like oil paint into nothingness. Furthermore, a warm blanket of vanilla that feels embraced by licorice. You can almost feel the resinous quality of the scent when you hold it directly under your nose. The skin seems to melt with resin on soft sandalwood. Delicate sunbeams also caress my senses. Wonderful against winter depression. You get what is promised. Everything in the fragrance pyramid is present, and they all give their best. They are beautiful and distinctly perceivable. However, I would wish for a longer-lasting performance. Because when the dream ends, the perfume has already faded away. It lasts no more than six hours. At least not for me. The sillage is also rather restrained, but that is not a deal-breaker. I prefer to keep it just for myself when I want to dive into my quiet phases.

When it is gray and cold, mentally paint everything inside you in bright colors.
Let only the quiet snowfall affect you.
Watch the magnificent snowflakes as they gently fall from the sky.
Let them softly settle on your hands.
Feel the delicate cold of them.
Your warm body jumps with joy inside.
How fresh, how thawed, you seem again.
For the quiet time is coming.
Go within and wrap yourself up.
Your soul will thank you for it.

The Balsamic Stain Devil
Yes, this is how I like gourmand scents. All the fragrance notes are balanced and the sweetness is well-measured. It smells delicious without giving too much of a bakery impression.

Myrrhiad does not have a great scent progression, but that is exactly what makes it irresistible to me.

All the components mentioned above are present, and I can most clearly perceive the balsamic myrrh and the smoky tea.

Myrrhiad is a feel-good scent, especially for cold days. It is perfect as a fragrant backdrop for an autumn walk and the subsequent warming up on a cozy warm couch, with a nice cup of tea, candlelight, and a good book.

The longevity is excellent and the scent aura does not spread too far.

This perfume has a tiny drawback; it is a stain devil. The color of the perfume resembles dark amber and is only conditionally suitable for spraying on clothing. So, caution is advised with light fabrics!

A licorice based scent with a myrrh note on top. Good but not the best from the brand. If you want myrrh, go elsewhere. 2/5

The incense makes a token effort at the start but cannot win out against the syrupy sweet vanilla. Tried for the tea, but I didn't get any.

Myrrh and licorice with a mentholated note, which I interpret as the tea (black tea, here).

But here it's beautifully intertwined with the top notes and vanilla...really well done,
but not for me*

Starts with vanilla and a wonderful licorice note. Then it unfortunately becomes very leathery-musty for my nose. I can't always vibe with Guillaume…
