Not original…but damn is it beautiful!
As we’re starting to leave the cool seasons behind, I’m gravitating towards more of my florals and fresh fragrances. Naturally, I caught wind of this new one from BDK and knew I had to have it.
312 Saint-Honoré falls in line with the musky-amber-molecular skin-like fragrances that most of us are familiar with, but this one is actually more transformative than any others I’ve tried. To my nose and on my skin, it’s most comparable to Diptyque L’Eau Papier without the sesame/rice accord. It’s been compared to Glossier You, Phlur Missing Person, etc. but unlike those, I don’t go noseblind to this one and you can get away with spraying it on your clothes (the others really require skin to work imo). The opening is mostly iris + tonka + Angelica root + molecular amber. As it dries down, the orange blossom actually shines more and alongside the tonka, the scent has a gentle sweetness to it throughout its wear. It’s beautiful and gets more and more beautiful as you wear it.
It’s by no means groundbreaking or original, but it’s of BDK’s highest quality and it performs pretty well for skin scent. I got a bottle with the number ‘77’ engraved on it, and my lucky number is 7, so I’m loving the coincidental acquisition I’ve made. Excited to test it more in the spring and summer, but this is a year round scent for sure.
Edit: I wore this last week Tuesday and sprayed it all over my sweater. Yesterday, I went to put the sweat in the hamper and the fragrance still smelled this very strongly on the fabric. This is definitely one to spray on your skin and clothes!!!
