A unique delight
This is beautiful. The hot sand and desert wind hit you in the face. There is some flower somewhere far away, possibly already fossilized from the heat. Juicy and green-ish paprika, however, reminds one that there is life there somewhere, even if one is surrounded by a melting mirage.

The composition is unlike anything else, really unique. Don't know anything with a similar vibe, let alone smell. Easy to wear, not loud, warm and understated. It's all subjective, but some fragrances have built-in classiness. This is one of them. Can be a great signature scent.

An ironic Christmas perfume
It's a lovely perfume that really smells of popcorn, creamy milk and background of vetiver, wood and amber-vanilla on the verge of sweet. Soft, warm and cozy, fits the winter holiday time very well. Also absolutely love the slightly ironic approach with the name, the main ingredient and the whole cheerful pop-art vibe that THoO is communicating through their marketing story.

Soot from a machine factory
To me it smells like soot. With woody & oudy undertones, smoke and a bit of rubber. I don't remember it very well, but it might be similar to the insides of a typewriter. Very cool, dark, deep and black scent. Wouldn't know where or when to wear it myself, as I think it is a rather masculine perfume. And on the right guy it will smell like a million bucks. Unusual and stylish fragrance. To me truly niche.

Beautiful gourmand
A perfect gourmand - sweet, but not too sweet. Vanilla is balanced by patchouli. Rum ads tartness so the composition is not sticky. Patchouli has this chocolate soft quality to it. The only thing I cannot separate out in front of my mental eye is tonka bean. But who cares? It is a beautiful balanced gourmand perfume. Kind of like a perfume other gourmands should be measured by.

For this experimental house this perfume is almost too "normal", because I see how a lot of people might like it. It's not one of the unexpected experiments I otherwise know the house for. But there is nothing wrong with making a perfect commercially viable fragrance to support the experiments that might not attract as many customers.

I would try to get a bottle of it.

European wood
It's a fragrance revolving around woody notes in a beautiful way. The woods chosen here are not the most common in perfumery, but the resulting effect is a real 3-D picture of a hundred woody facets. From old polished and dark to freshly sawn light one with woody dust in the air around it. Myrrh adds a tad of sweetness, so the composition is not teeth-cringing, but pleasant and wearable. The perfume has depth, and it develops over time to show new sides. A classy option for fall.
