Satago

I really like boudoir/makeup-y scents, so I have tried lots of them. This is not screechy at all, despite having aldehydes in it as a top note. In fact, I find they give it a sparkly opening note, insetad of giving me a headache! The white musk also is subdued here, as it doesn't tingle my nose. We're left with an iris-forward scent, less fruity than "1889 - Moulin Rouge | Histoires de Parfums" even though I do like that scent too. I fiend it more natural-smelling than "Lipstick Rose | Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle" and earthier than "Eau Rose (Eau de Parfum) | Diptyque", even if they are quite similar. All in all, I like this scent and I don't think I need to look any further.

As a side-note, I find the bottle and the packaging lovely as a vintage lover.

The Silver accord is a vanilla-extract-like vanilla, and it pairs very well with woods. In general, Possets' oud is very subdued, only having a faint woody smell, but wow, how gorgeous it is paired with the silver accord! In my profile I say I do not enjoy overly sweet fragrances, and while this IS sweet, it isn't cloying at all and I find it rather comforting.

The chewier cousin of Maître Parfumeur et Gantier - Ambre Précieux. It's deep, very dense, rich, opulent, sweet, very vanillic: in fact, when I wore it a friend who isn't interested at all in fragrances could guess I was wearing a vanilla perfume. As another commenter on Fragrantica said, it's a balance between warm and cool notes. I can detect some kind of mintiness, which I suppose it's due to the davana and eucalyptus notes, but it mellows down the more it warms up on my skin. It's very potent, so beware of overspraying.

This is a meditative, contemplative scent. It does indeed recall old churches, cold cathedral walls, incense that has been burned for decades and whose smell still lingers, lilies. I like to wear this when I put an all-black outfit on.

It opens up very smokey, a little lemony (because of the frankincense), and you can smell the heady lilies in the background. I really like it!

Softer, finer powdered sugar, but this sugar is sad. It opens up a little green, a little spicy, and I feel like the carnation is the main character at the beginning. Then, it becomes more than the sum of its parts: the result is a very distinguishable fragrance, that everyone must try at least one in their lifetime. To my nose, the main notes when this dries down are heliotrope, benzoin, tonka and vanilla (famous Guerlinade), which make a powdery, fluffy cloud, very comforting but melancholic.
