Mud made of chocolate, leaves and dry rose petals

I was very curious what a fragrance called Mud would smell like. Especially with those pretty, not very muddy sounding notes. Now that I tested it, I think the name kind of fits, but kind of doesn't.

It doesn't smell dirty in any way, not even particularly earthy, but it does have a muddy texture, at least in the beginning. Imagine a clay mask that slowly dries. The scent starts out like a mix of autumn leaves, dark plum liqueur and powdery rose. The plum vanishes first and the whole scent turns very dry and powdery for a while. After a while the chocolate and almond move forward, so it turns a tad sweeter and creamier again. I get hints of a barely sweetened chocolate pudding made with almond milk.

Unfortunately, the cold, dry undertone never really leaves and it bothers me. I enjoy the chocolate note in here a lot, it's milky without being waxy or extremely sugary, but the rose and elemi make me think someone poured a bowl of potpourri into my pudding. I'm sure eating that would be much worse than just smelling it though. The scent is not bad and also quite unique, but ultimately it's not for me.

Just the Right Amount of Chocolate

This is a gourmand for people who do and don't love gourmands. Its strong without being overpowering, sweet without being candy, and it has complexity. The scent does start strong creamy and nutty. That settles into a dark sweet chocolate where I can pick up a little bit of the plum and rose that adds depth to the chocolate. When it drys down its a beautiful warm, musky, sweet wood that is close to your skin. This scent projects just enough that you can smell it on yourself but you won't upset everyone at the office. The scent also lasted the full day on my skin, over 6 hours.

Easy nice gourmand

Very well done gourmand. Unisex, comfy, I get the comparison with Eau Duelle but here it’s simple, what is not a bad thing. The chocolate is sweet but not clingy, it’s not a teenager perfume - this is adult perfumery. It’s comfy, easy, but yet sexy in a subtle way. I like this a lot, for my collection would be a bit redundant but it’s a solid choice for any gourmand lover.

Creamy Almond Milk with a Hint of Plum

Mud is primarily a creamy scent for me. Creamy, clean, and slightly sweet. Almond milk with a touch of plum and barely noticeable chocolate.
Overall, it is relatively light and becomes quite close to the skin fairly quickly.
At least, that’s my impression.

My girlfriend can actually detect a bit of chocolate.
I personally have some trouble really recognizing chocolate. But that’s just how it is in our world of scents. Fragrance impressions are always subjective.

The scent starts for me with a creamy almond milk, sweetened with a bit of plum.
In addition, there is a really soft and pleasant rose. Furthermore, the Mud here even comes across as slightly fresh.
Then it becomes noticeably closer to the skin. The plum recedes, and a bit of sandalwood, vanilla, and amber emerge.
Everything is kept very subtle and calm.

I can’t say much more about the Mud. It’s a bit difficult to define everything precisely here.

The performance is okay.
But I actually expected more.

A fragrance that literally ends up in the mud...

Another test candidate from BTSO, which unfortunately did not surprise positively again, but at least performs significantly better than the Naked Laundry. Provocative branding - as always - but this time the execution is not exactly groundbreaking.

Let's get into it:

- The opening is restrained; a milky mélange with a bit of almond; that's it. Really nothing more, nothing less, the opening disappointed me a bit, to be honest, but then the beautiful plum slowly seeps through, synthetic, but quite alright.

- Then a little bit of chocolate comes in, but very subtle and restrained, blending into this creamy plum base. Again, neither fish nor fowl, somehow everything, but then again nothing. At least better than the opening, but still not groundbreaking. In the drydown, the fragrance then transitions into a creamy-woody vanilla base, not abrasive, not special, just "something".

- H/S better than Naked Laundry, feeling like it's in the middle, nothing groundbreaking.

Overall, you can tell, the fragrance has also disappointed me a bit, not speechless, but not particularly inspired to type this up either :) Just as uninspired as the creators of the fragrance probably were.

This smells like chocolate milk from some fancy, Michelin star restaurant. I cannot stop smelling my arm when I wear it

With such a mud, I turn into Peppa Pig and roll around in the dirt, especially since it's very clean, milky, and a bit chocolatey.

Almond-sandalwood-plum fudge cream. If not edible, then definitely for moisturizing. No mud in sight. Another born dessert.
