Roses, carnations and pungent florals are accompanied by a light “pissy” scent in the open. As it sits on skin, the florals open up and become more rounded, balanced and less sharp whilst retaining a dreamy quality. The florals are not photorealistic;...

[Subjective] Jasmine after a light summer rain. Absolutely stunning in the clarity and quality of its simplicity. Everything here supports the jasmine in a subtle and delicate way. The special process used in this fragrance really seems to pay off,...

[Subjective] A pleasing powdery Pepper fragrance with lots of layering potential. The Sillage and sweetness sometimes make it feel harsh for me, but I’m particularly sensitive to this. The pink pepper is really well-made and potent, and the light...

Subjective: Excellent “cold” incense with a luminous powdery twist. On my skin, I don’t seem to be getting as much pine as others describe, but it’s still there in the background. To me, this represents a positive...

Subjective: A big flower bomb with impressive performance but questionable balance. The green notes are completely overshadowed by these extreme florals, and once they disappear, you are left with a very one-sided scent that does not olfactively...

Subjective: Very elegant citrus profile scent with good performance. It’s definitely not a standard “fresh green citrus” moment, but for the price point, I also wouldn’t say it's anything special, definitely paying the LVMH tax here....

Subjective: A Classic “men’s” profile executed at a high quality. The citrus is well-balanced and elegant, with enough depth to keep you engaged. The fragrance dries to a clean, soapy base on my skin. Is this the ultimate no-fuss “clean boy”...

Opening: Chemical, like off-brand Dr Pepper… sharp, stinging florals. Development: Quite monodimensional: once the opening aggression fades, you get a chemical-sweet scent with vague, artificial florals. It reminds me a lot of soft drinks,...

Opening: Bold flowers, aggressive, almost a bit painful. I can perceive the juniper and mint very faintly, but they fade almost instantly on the skin. Development: The florals take centre stage...

Opening: Very pleasant and complex, but subsides quickly. Herbaceous, fresh, woody, yet not dark at all. Development: The fragrance quickly settles into a stable and somewhat flat, yet very pleasant and photorealistic...

Opens with photorealistic Jasmine and white flowers. Almost soapy and pleasantly plasticky. Reminds me a bit of some very aromatic Rieslings, but without the burned note. After 30-60 minutes, the oud, labdanum and wood creep forward and present a very...

Grandma wanders outside the care home and gets lost in an eerie forest. Beautifully balanced, powdery forest scent, big, strong balsamic and fresh notes from the eucalyptus and ginger that slowly fade and reveal the smell...
