Lustful Hunt for Sensual Adventures
Dirty woman? Well, rather pure, lustful femininity with naughty thoughts *smirk*

When these fragrances were introduced, I was immediately captivated and ordered 2 perfumes from this small American manufacturer. One of them was "Filthy Femme" - because the name along with the fragrance pyramid really appealed to me, and I wanted to see how the perfumer would interpret this. The ordering process was straightforward, and the delivery via USPS took about 3.5 weeks. Customs clearance was also handled.
Now to the scent:
The journey here is the journey of a primal hunt of lust and desire, leading to a gentle, beautiful morning of indulgence afterwards.
It starts strong, almost overwhelming with the scent of pure eroticism and longing. Benzoin, red musk with its animalic notes (but here perfectly dosed) and the scent of bare skin open the dance of love. Everything here screams of enticing seduction - not sweet and floral, but unmistakably naked and willing. This seductive dance lasts for a while (the foreplay before the foreplay), before the hunt for the object of desire leads into a heavy silk bed. The path there was clear from the beginning, but now as the scent of beautiful silk mixes in with all the other love fragrances, this scent becomes softer, even more seductive, gentle and yielding. This phase lasts long, and after all the shared love arias have been sung, this fragrance falls into an incredibly soft, peaceful sleep on silk sheets, warm, moist skin, and fluffy white musk.
I have rarely smelled a more erotic scent, and I certainly did not expect to find it here. But I did. It makes an incredibly beautiful transformation from demanding, direct to sensual, subtle, refined. And it lasts incredibly long and takes care of all the expectations one has for such a night (which is definitely a plus in this context). What I find particularly lovely is that the scent never smells of "dirty animality and cheap sexuality," but finds just the right balance between cheap and seductive.
It is also worth mentioning that the bottles are beautifully designed, but especially the sprayer creates a wonderful, fine mist. Overall, I find the scent exceptionally valuable. It is very feminine and suitable for various occasions year-round.
Remarkable new discovery for me!

Aprés - or afterwards one is wiser
This pretty forest green bottle tempts you to open the door (cap) and want to discover nature (its nature). And that's why we get to work fresh, discovering new things.
So I open the door and grab my wild leather pouch and pack a large bag of saffron with it - you never know what you might need it for, and good saffron isn't found on every street corner... I'm still a bit undecided about which direction my journey will take today, because usually such "openings" tend to go in a completely different, sweet, oriental direction, but here we immediately turn 180 degrees and head straight over spicy forest paths into the green. Juniper, violet (root), and patchouli accompany me as I still perceive the remnants of the spilled whiskey from last night on my sleeve. Then it becomes increasingly woody, cedar has the final say, labdanum adds some depth, and the musk softens the landscape. Overall, the image that this fragrance paints is indeed a green - light brown - woody one, but very gentle, so very, very gentle. Nothing harsh, ungracious, but easy to walk and experience. And the path is also rather short - more for a quick round after work - not a day trip. Overall, one thinks of a more challenging start to the tour, but ultimately realizes that it is more of a beginner's round for everyone - just like aprés-ski... Nothing to exhaust yourself with, rather just for fun.
In summary:
A beautiful scent, without ifs and buts, but little unknown terrain and with little endurance. After 4 hours, it is just a whisper, albeit a pleasant one. But it is by no means as "wild-woody" as the presentation might suggest.

Porentiefe Reinheit
May I introduce: My personal "White Giant"! - It has everything I want when I want it discreetly and pleasantly. The fragrance accompanies its wearer with a woody lightness that is incredibly charming. It smells as clean and innocent as a freshly cleaned crime scene by a professional team. I spray it on and feel absolutely clean and innocent. The woodiness is so light and fine, the ginger is spicy but never harsh, the amyris is so soft and pleasing. The lab ingredients here highlight the natural notes and enhance their radiance. A fragrance that is beautiful in its restraint. It doesn't stand out, has no difficult edges or corners. One that always fits. The scent adapts to the wearer - depending on how they want to come across, the fragrance emphasizes this. Innocent and pure? It can do that! Clean and cool? It can do that! Mysterious like a cleaned crime scene? It can do that too! ;)
I like it in its intangible way - a hint of something that you can be whatever you want to be.
Un Musc is absolutely unisex and envelops you for about 6 hours.
The fragrance for all occasions!

Mother Nature in a Bottle
Today I would like to write a little review about a fragrance and a brand that is still relatively unknown here, or simply hasn't caught attention yet.

Once again, I chose a "green fragrance." And this one is truly very green. Grass green, like the pretty bottle that holds the green elixir. Vyrao creates natural scents, each following a different "spirit." I am Verdant is meant to provide strong, clear energies to the wearer.

Now, let's get to the scent description:
It starts with the scent of freshly cut grass. Just like when you mow the lawn and the earth is still a little damp. This is by no means unpleasant or too earthy, but rather a beautiful introduction to this fragrance. Green, right here and now. Shortly after, the fleshy darker green of the cyclamen leaves joins the grass green. Now we reach the peak of the "green phase," which is followed by a phase where the iris dusts everything with pistachio green powder. The incense ignites gently and silvery bright, enhancing this deep green world with its wisps of smoke. Until it ends with a cuddly soft green-mossy musk that is nicely peppered. It lingers on the skin until the end: green-mossy-soft-fine.

The sillage is, as is often the case with natural fragrances, quite close to the skin; however, it is long-lasting. Softly long-lasting.

This fluffy green breeze is finely crafted, beautifully balanced, and pleasantly wearable. It is unisex in every way - nature is for everyone!

Alandia, the Green Fairy on Dark Paths
Alandia, the enchanting fairy with the dark soul, once again felt a deep longing within her to be completely herself and to sink into the depths of her imagination.
So she sprayed her darkest green fairy dress at exactly 5:00 PM and immediately immersed herself in a wonderful aura of anise, wormwood, and alcohol. Wrapped in her green misty dress, she ventured into the darkness, fearless and entirely herself. She walked into the dark thicket that enveloped her protectively, deeper and deeper, until she was filled with dark patchouli, damp and earthy, fully arrived at herself, and attained her redemption in the deep inhalation and exhalation of this liquid dream. She remained in this dream far longer than 7:00 PM, the traditional end of L´Heure Verte, captivated.

This Kilian awakened an immediate desire in me when it appeared on the temptation list, also known here as "New and Noteworthy." The fragrance pyramid read like one of my wish dreams. The deadly sins of "Greed" and "Gluttony" cleverly set aside, and I wanted it as soon as it was available.
And it did not disappoint me - I have rarely been so taken with a bold, unusual fragrance creation. The absinthe (I love absinthe and the associated ritual) is indeed distinctly noticeable here, and not a tired imitation, as in many other attempts to capture this scent.
After the first alcohol-laden wormwood scent cloud, anise and violet leaf follow. After about 20 minutes, the fragrance becomes warm-woody with pleasantly earthy patchouli. Dark, extraordinary, and unique.
It has excellent longevity of up to 8 hours, and the sillage is pleasant and present. I perceive it as unisex, if one wishes to view it more specifically: unisex masculine. But in my opinion, it is incredibly exciting on women, perhaps because it is unexpected.
For me, a great hit and a valuable addition to my collection.
