Honest, rated reviews from people who wore it.
GhostPie
Sirène · Fragrance du Bois
This one is gooood. Bright burst of cherry and pepper, and then it gets a little smoky with the Oud and incense. It’s got depth and ventures towards the edge of LOUD, but in a fabulous, unapologetic

Moss Rock · Uttori
I don’t own too many chypres, but this might change that for me. Moss Rock opens very clean and green. Galbanum and cypress greet you first, just before the moss and fresh spring notes. It produces a
GhostPie
Breath Of The Infinite · The House of Oud
I’m not sure I like this one. The notes seemed really interesting and fit my preferences, but I think the freesia is throwing me off. It’s got a heavy, powdery sweet base with sharp, green edges.
Xathaneal
Encens Flamboyant · Goutal
As a whole, the fragrance feels soothing and meditative as the title says. It goes on sharp but sweet, something floral, the incense of course being the primary scent. Interestingly enough, when I

Hufflecuffs · Heist Fragrances
This is supposed to be a dupe for HOS Hufflepuff. I can't speak to the accuracy since I've not tried the OG. I have, however, tried.more than a dozen lemon gourmands looking for one that wasn't

Angel Etoile Mystique · Mugler
I have now secured 60mL of this and 105mL of the OG Winter Star Extrait of Angel and I feel extremely safe. A brief esníf: It’s good. It starts very earthy and dirty but refined. This isn’t the same
HeavenScent
Club de Nuit Untold · Armaf
If you love the BR540 DNA but aren’t impressed with its overall longevity and projection, look no further. This is an impressive fragrance, probably the strongest in my collection. Anything over two

Rooibos Reserve · Oakcha
This very much gives Imagination made with rooibos. I know people like to compare any tea scent to Imagination, but in this instance I think it fits. Most of the notes overlap, so it makes sense. I'm
GhostPie
Tomboy · Maison des Animaux
Heavy leather with a sweet vanilla pod scent. Strong projection but not overbearing. The warm tonka finish makes it surprisingly daytime-friendly (not office friendly, though!). Leans a bit more
Tiernan
Pretty as Poison · Cursed
Starts off strong with juicy semi-sweet cherry before the almond comes in to balance it with a faint bitter nuttiness. It also helps anchor the boozy cherry liquer and stops it being sickly. Dries
OliveEyes
Sartorial · Penhaligon's
Sartorial is Penhaligon's take on the classic gentleman's barbershop scent, yet rather than presenting a cooling, aromatic lavender, here we have a warm, comforting variety. This is at least
MagnifiScent
L'Heure Bleue · Guerlain
Many who love Guerlain will doubtless be familiar with the original l’heure bleue which debuted in 1912 and has been adored ever since. That perfume is cold, chilly, at once melancholic and hopeful.

Bistro Boy · Ficifolia
God, I love this scent. It’s a perfect example of a true savoury gourmand — not a hint of vanilla or caramel as far as the eye can see (or… sniff, I guess. Sniffin’ eyes. You know what I mean).

Ain’t That Sweet · D.S. & Durga
A few weeks back at the Rose Pacific launch at DS&Durga in Silverlake, I was talking to the salesperson and shared with them my old bottle of Poppy Rouge (sadly, the last of my discontinued DS&D
Lambkin
Honey Moon · Phlur
Gosh, I love this so much. I blew through a travel size and at this rate the bottle will definitely need to be repurchased before year's end.. For true honey lovers; lavender infused sticky sweet
Kaide
Heaven’s Moonlight · The Dua Brand
To me, and I think I am in the minority here, this is such a lush and decadent tropical floral. I am truly enjoying the wear of this. It smells expensive and not your typical designer scent. It is

Idole Eau de Toilette · Lancome
I am a huge Idole fan and have smelled almost all of the flankers and own quite a few, so getting the chance to get my nose on the EDT was exciting! This has a lovely, prominent green tea note for

Earthy Abundance · Portals Parfums
My apologies to anyone who is lovin this, but this is one of the top 3 worst frags I’ve ever laid nostril upon. It's like a mix of fruit loops, "lemon fresh" bathroom cleaner, and those chalky

Prairie · Maison des Animaux
(waiting for proposal details to be accepted) My second favorite fragrance from MDA (behind Sirius), and I recently snagged a 30ml (my fav size!) on their summer sale. This is such a late-summer

Corail Oscuro · Diptyque
I hate yucking peoples yum’s. This one was a surprising yuck because I tested it on paper a few weeks ago when I got the sample and I really liked it. But on skin it took a very bad turn for the

Earthy Abundance · Portals Parfums
I haven't ever had lavender green tea boba (except subtract the tapioca and add sweet green tea jelly boba), but I'd imagine it would hit much like this scent does—I pick up a sweet, fresh, aromatic

Blouse · Yves Saint Laurent
If Nahema is a massive, fully ripened dark red rose with the petals ready to start falling, this is a small bud, green on the outside, with the pink of the petals just starting to open. Very fresh

Vanilla Factory · Bibbi
This arrived today. I sprayed it and it was an immediate no. I couldn't work out what the heck I was smelling. It was just weird. My nose was fully confused. About 20 minutes later I caught a whiff

Love After Rain · D'Orsay
Much spicier than I anticipated. Not quite sharp with the aldehydes, which I don't usually get along with, but almost biting. This fragrance is supposed to be somewhat atmospheric and capture the
