I was recently able to get samples of 5 different scents from this brand so I have been testing them out this week. Yesterday I tried Leisure Extrait. On me, this was a lovely skin scent much like Le Labo Another 13, DS & Durga Steamed Rainbow, and Fugazzi Angel Dust. Even though the note pyramid shows a lot of florals, this smelled mostly light and fresh with maybe just a slight feminine leans. Overall, I would say this is unisex though. Angel Dust is much more feminine to me. The longevity was pretty good, but there was very low projection. The only compliments you'll be getting are from whomever is getting VERY close to you. There are times when skin scents are the most appropriate thing to be wearing and this is one I would gladly wear.

I was recently able to get samples of 5 different scents from this brand so I have been testing them out this week. Yesterday I tried Void. With a name like Void, I went into the test expecting a dark mysterious scent, but this is the polar opposite. This is a light, green, herbal scent that is perfect for spring and summer. It has decent projection and longevity and leans slightly feminine. It's an easy, likable daytime wear that would be good for work, errands, or lunch with your family & friends. It's nice, but as a guy, I would get Triple Tea over this.

I was recently able to get samples of 5 different scents from this brand so I have been testing them out this week. Yesterday I tried Jazz Bar. The tobacco note in this managaes to be both mellow but also spicy to the point it tickles your nose. To me, this smells similar to PDM Layton, which happens to be one of my favorite cold-weather scents. This smells better blended, a little lighter, but that tobacco note really sizzles. This has very good longevity and projection. I could still smell it a few inches away from my arm 12 hours later. I prefer this to Layton, but that spicy tobacco note could actually end up being a bit too much for me after a while. If that were toned down a bit, this would easily be my new winter favorite.

I was able to get my hand on samples of five different To Summer fragrances. I had no idea what any of them were going to smell like, so I was going in blind. Osmanthus smells very nice, but it is too feminine for me. It's soft, floral, and fruity. If I were a female, this could easily be a signature scent. It's very pleasant and wearable in any situation. This actually smells very similar to Byredo's Mojave Ghost Absolu.

I've recently discovered that I really like tea scents. This one is exactly what I like. Perfectly unisex and has quite good projection and longevity. It's not fruity or creamy or sweet or spicy. It's just a lovely pure tea scent. I need a full bottle of this. It's become an obsession. Luckily I found someone who has several different scents from this brand and is letting me sample all of them. This one is my favorite. Who's going to China soon and can pick me up a bottle?
