Hello again @Raluko111 , thank you for sharing some of your favorite nut notes! 😊
Have you tested Kyse "Cacao Noisette" or Jousset "Le Gourmand"? To me each of them are an excellent take on a "Nutella"-like hazelnut spread.
For almond: have you tried Le Monde Gourmand "Sucre d'Amande", Mix:Bar "Nº14 Whipped Almond", Jeanne Arthes "Tea Time à Paris - Macaron Amande", Pacifica "Silver Moon", or Replica "Afternoon Delight"?
Much more variety here - some are a more raw/greener almond and some are sweeter; not sure which part of the almond spectrum you prefer. But all have a prominent almond component to my nose. And my apologies, since I'm not familiar with which ones can be obtained in Japan. 🙈
There are many Japanese fragrances I wish I could smell too, like Samourai Woman (especially "White Peach", "Dolce Caramel", and "Dolce Vanilla"), all of the Jill Stuart scents, Aqua Savon, and Fernanda!
Do you have any favorites from these, or other Japanese brands you'd recommend?

Hi, @Gourmandgrl ! Thanks for these, I really appreciate it. The funny thing about Japan is that it can be hard to get your hands on some Japanese perfumes here. For example, Di Ser, one house I've kind of obsessing over is located all the way in Hokkaido, doesn't have an online shop.

One Japanese brand I really like is Perfume Satori. I met some of their reps at events here, and they also have a multilingual website you can order from. Satori-san fuses Japan tradition with French perfumery.
