Earl Grey & Cucumber

Jo Malone

Underrated fresh tea scent

I love Earl Grey tea. The aromatic component of the bergamot oil added to the calming fragrant black tea makes for an amazing taste. It's tough to translate that feeling into a fragrance, but Earl Grey and Cucumber has done quite a good...

Reflection 45

Amouage

Next level clean powdery iris

We've all tried the powdery slightly sweet fresh clean scents: "L'Homme | Prada", "Pegasus | Parfums de Marly", "Reflection Man | Amouage". They give the feeling of clean fabric and dryer sheets. And Reflection 45 starts out that way too,...

Legend (Eau de Parfum) - Montblanc - 6 days ago

8
Bottle 8
Sillage 7
Longevity 7.5
Scent

Takes the classic Fierce DNA, adds a sharp metallic/aromatic edge, and smooths out the base. Excellent value for money.

Haltane - Parfums de Marly - 6 days ago

10
Bottle 9
Sillage 9
Longevity 9.5
Scent

Aromatic herbal notes, fresh citrus, spicy saffron, sweet praline, woody cedar and oud, leather, and musk. Haltane has it all.

Polo Cologne Intense - Ralph Lauren - 11 days ago

Bottle 8
Sillage 8
Longevity 8.5
Scent

Underrated gem in RL's catalog. Great modern re-interpretation of the classic Polo

Perseus - Parfums de Marly - 11 days ago

8
Bottle 8
Sillage 7
Longevity 4
Scent

Lackluster, generic, and synthetic grapefruit/vetiver. Not remotely worth the price.

Cyranó - Naso di Raza - 14 days ago

8
Bottle 9
Sillage 6
Longevity 5.5
Scent

Woody and resinous to the point of being nauseating/headache-inducing

The Scent of Banat - Wesker - 24 days ago

8
Bottle 6
Sillage 7
Longevity 5
Scent

I guess they must be barbecuing with charcoal in Banat because that's exactly what this scent smells like

Le Vestiaire - Babycat - Yves Saint Laurent - 24 days ago

8
Bottle 6
Sillage 9
Longevity 3
Scent

YSL really cloned Memoirs of a Trespasser, amped up the burnt rubber, gave it a name like "Babycat" and tripled the price.

The Tragedy of Lord George - Penhaligon's - 25 days ago

9
Bottle 7
Sillage 7
Longevity 1
Scent

The most "old man" smell I've ever experienced. Rancid cloying old-fashioned soap with unappealing sweetness

Arabesque - The Merchant Of Venice - 25 days ago

10
Bottle 7
Sillage 8
Longevity 8
Scent

Tobacco and woody amber. Not particularly complex, but doesn't need to be. Cozy, warm, and sweet.

Oud Minérale - Tom Ford - 27 days ago

8
Bottle 8
Sillage 9
Longevity 8.5
Scent

Oud gives this funky aquatic freshie depth and character. Versatile with excellent performance, but the scent may not be for everyone

The Difference Between Ingredients, Notes, and Accords

I come across lots of folks in the fragrance community who confuse fragrance ingredients (aromachemicals), notes in the note pyramid, and accords. I wanted to write about my take on these three after learning a bit about perfumery and looking at formulas; hopefully...

As I've moved deeper into this hobby, I've made a lot of purchases and choices I regret. Here are some tips I'd give my more naive past self that other novices or dilettantes might find useful: 1. Notes don't mean much Fragrance notes and the note pyramid are among the first ways we learn how to describe...
