Häxan · Heretic Parfum
For a fragrance with only five notes, it does an incredible job of evoking deep feelings of something ancient and ineffable. The rose in the heart note is present even through the top note, but the

Jasmine Smoke · Heretic Parfum
This is much better as a layer to a bright citrus fragrance, if you like smoky florals. I got less gourmand sweetness and more floral, but after the dry-down it was barely there. I got this as a
GhostPie
Rhubarb Thief · Heretic Parfum
I know grapefruit is similar to rhubarb in smell, but I feel like this fragrance should have been called “Dirty Grapefruit” instead. That’s much more fitting. It’s extremely sweet and bright upon
GhostPie
Kogen · Apoteker Tepe
I really like this one, but it’s a bit too masculine for me to wear. There’s definitely a lighter fruit note, maybe the pear, although it smells a bit brighter like bergamot. Reminds me of Karma

Eidesis · Aesop
There's a polished confidence to Eidesis that makes it one of my favourites from Aesop. It's a spicy, resinous, woody composition resting on a smooth, creamy foundation. There's a certain gravitas

Ani · Nishane
Such a stunning scent. Fresh spicy ginger, sweet citrus, soft florals and fruits, green aromatics, gentle patch, all blended perfectly together on a smooth, creamy, ambery vanilla and woody base. A

Orphéon Eau de Parfum · Diptyque
Orpheon is another one of my favorite Diptyque perfumes. It opens up with a strong blast of peppery, sharp juniper berries that vanishes almost as quickly as the initial blast of alcohol from the

Red Wine Brown Sugar · Bohoboco
On paper, this was 5 stars to me, but once on my skin, it did some wild things. First, it opened almost medicinal, like cough syrup mixed with vapor rub, almost something close to tiger balm. As it

Flora Gorgeous Orchid Intense · Gucci
Had to stop at Sephora today and they had both this and the original gorgeous orchid so of course each got their own inner elbow. At the top it's a very sweet floral, to me, and I quickly picked up

Neon · Aaron Terence Hughes
Bright, colorful, vibrant, fun, electric, citric, zingy, loud- Neon! Just like the name suggests. For a real life comparison, take Aventus, send it on a tropical vacation, and let it come back

Paris – Deauville · Chanel
Cuts through the heat and humidity. The basil plays really well with the petitgrain giving it an aromatic boost that gives you the feeling of standing under a curious tree with lots of new growth.

Moth · Zoologist Perfumes
Moth is the cool glooms and musty melancholy of antique lace and silks tucked away with camphoraceus mothballs, there’s a smoky rose musk aspect, the spectral embers of a rose that lit itself on fire

Pêche au Yuzu · Kyse Perfumes
weirdly smells sooo photorealistic on paper but goes artificial on my skin. not exactly peach rings candy but definitely not the fruit either. yuzu is more of a subtle seasoning than a foreground

Milk · Dedcool
This was a feast for my senses! It’s the type of scent that sits close to the skin - very subtle, simple, and understated. I can see this being the perfect base or layering perfume. It’s also ideal
Slinky
Noa Perle · Cacharel
Super unique! Has very little feel of the original Noa, but I always appreciate when flankers are different enough that it doesn't feel like you own two slightly different perfumes of the same name.

Vanilla Canyon · Phlur
A unisex, sweet, woody vanilla with a touch of juicy plum in the opening, tonka and Madagascar vanilla to add sweetness. The honey is the most overpowering note to me, although I don't detect any

Dragon · Boadicea the Victorious
What a fantastic fragrance. Opening with a kick of beautiful saffron, cinnamon, peach, and raspberry notes. Not overly sweet just a perfect balance of sweet, spicy and a little dry. The rose really

Les Lunatiques · LVNEA
I don’t know if I’ll ever truly understand Les Lunatiques. Depending on the day, I could use any combination of the following words to describe it: creamy, sweet, floral, musky, resinous, woody
OliveEyes
Vain & Naïve · Nishane
Vain & Naïve opens with a jammy plum accord and bright raspberry sweetness that, to my nose, leans slightly artificial. Together, they create a dense fruity-floral impression that feels

Tucson · Olympic Orchids Artisan Perfumes
This one was earlier known as Arizona. It opens dry, piney, almost medicinal. The opening might remind one slightly of Eucalyptus. After 20 mins it moves to dry woods, the woods feel like the bark of

Neroli Oranger · Matière Première
So for a while I'd been a big fan of Jo Malone's Orange Blossom regarding Orange Blossom-forward perfumes, but when I first tried this it was clear that I was smelling a more well-blended mix. This

Flora Gorgeous Orchid Intense · Gucci
It’s nearly identical to the original flanker…although it is funny that it’s a flanker of a flanker. Gorgeous Orchid edt is more unique with the salty/marine accords. This one is more…mainstream. It

Just as Da Vinci took foreveeeeerr (like 16 years, pick it up broski) to paint his masterwork, this scent takes a while to reveal every layer present. The opening is a bright, crisp herbal with a

Ephemera · Sorce
This one hooked me instantly. I have other perfumes with cashmere notes, and this is my favorite cashmere blend this far. I must acknowledge that partway through the drydown, I picked up a distinct
