I blindly ordered Fascent in a fit of daring after the fragrance was listed here. The scent pyramid is exactly my cup of tea. I love sweet fragrances. And no matter how often I try the other directions, I always end up with sweet. After all, Parfumo made me realize that: Sweet yes, but I don't want to smell like a dessert or chocolate. So now there is actually a category for me: too sweet.
The Fascent homepage is spartan, and I find the pictures of the bottles and cocktail glasses or the bathroom sink rather disconcerting. And you don't find out much about the fragrances themselves. So I bought blind. Together with the refill ampoules to save the postage from France.
Fascent write that they place a lot of emphasis on the quality of the fragrances and not on the design of the bottles. This is true. The bottle is kept simple. Since one of the pictures showed a pool noodle, I thought this funny little hat was made of foam but it is a hard plastic cap. The bottles are refillable and apparently you are supposed to wash them out.
Fascent currently offers 5 fragrances, which are supposed to be combinable.
Milky No Way actually smells like hazelnut at the first spray. It's sweet - marzipan-like for me (tonka bean and cream?) but really not too sweet. This is probably also due to the fact that this fragrance is rather quiet and close to the skin. Apart from the first spray moment, it doesn't have a strong sillage. I don't get the sandalwood yet and I'll have to test how long it lasts. The overall conclusion is positive, but this fragrance probably won't cause a hype. It is nice. And beautiful. A mixture between Milk Musk Eau de Toilette and Milk I would say.
