Ambergris Finish · Gallery by Flo
Y'know, like a soliflore? Well, everything in this perfume contributes to a fuller expression of white ambergris, which is distinctive for its age and more refined skankiness, apparently. I haven't

Sun Cities · Vilhelm Parfumerie
Name is spot on. It’s the initial excitement you get when first meeting up with friends on a bright Saturday, smiles and hugs and quick chatter. You’re hopping on a boat, or sipping rose in the park
Lychee
Argentum · Pecksniff's
Hard to realise that this is from 2010 when it has such a classic, well-blended, almost severe floral chypre feeling to it, with no real sweetness. ( am sure there is unlisted citrus, but it is more
Chungus
The Hedonist · Ex Nihilo
I really like this one because it smells fresh, clean, and smooth, but still has enough personality to stand out. It’s really easy to wear, and I also get great longevity from it, which is a big plus
Christopher
Cedrus · Chloé
While I did love it at first, as it were on, I came to the realization that a citrusy fragrance like this is not something I could see myself going for every day. Maybe every once in a while but
Starling
Odyssey · Avon
This cologne has decent projection and surprisingly good longevity. Still going strong and getting whiffs of myself every time I move. This says it's a women's fragrance, but the clean, soapy spicy

Figo Confit · Granado
There are a plethora of green fig scents out there; this is an unremarkable addition to the field. To my nose this is most similar, though not identical, to Fico di Amalfi or @[Javan

Dua's Fitch Cologne · The Dua Brand
I'll preface this by saying I have no experience with the original, A&F Ezra Fitch. I can't give an approximation of how close it is. This has had two months to oxidize (or whatever your preferred

Risvelium · Orto Parisi
It's hard to find a definitive listing of notes for this fragrance, so I'm flying blind. It definitely is very strong. I put a couple of dabs from the sample on and that was it. It smells sharply of
Funky Waters
Panda Edition 2017 · Zoologist Perfumes
So, this is another fun one. It's very earthy in the opening, like wet potting soil. Slowly, the fruit emerges, and the apple is really nice and ripe. Another very crisp and ozonic fragrance. The

Misia · Chanel
Decided to test a sample of Chanel Misia at the office today. Seemed to fit the white & black sequin cardigan that I'm wearing today! 🫣😆 This fragrance is lovely. It's very similar to Frederic Male

Tokyo Blue · Chris Collins
Tokyo Blue is a herbal, rather botanical scent, with powdery florals and a surprising brightness. It opens up with a strong galbanum mixed with zesty bergamot. It is a lovely, sophisticated interplay
Marta
Vanity Oud · Regalien
Vanity Oud by Regalien opens fruity before settling into a smooth floral woody scent. Despite the name, I don’t really get oud at all. It’s polished, slightly soapy and powdery, very much that
MagnifiScent
Love-O-Matic · Room 1015
This is a first wear review for take with all the grains you can muster. Love-o-Matic sets out to provide a crisp, clean, freshly laundered scent and to that end, it does it really well. It opens
Kristin
Dulce · By Rosie Jane
Vanilla, chocolate, and musk? Don’t mind if I do. I appreciate the fact that this is gourmand without being synthetic, and sticky sweet. You do get vanilla cupcake, with chocolate frosting, but musk
Jon
New York (Gabriela Hearst) · Fueguia 1833
If I'm out for a hike in the spring/summer, there is no fragrance that captures the experience quite like Beach Hut Man. This is very much my fall equivalent. The dry, earthy notes crunching leaves

Blu Uomo · Acqua dell Elba
A brief contemplation on Acqua dell'Elba's Blu Uomo—an olfactory composition that delightfully eschews the tiresome clichés of the usual 'blue aquatic'. According to the esteemed Italian house, the
Scent Symphony by ASM
Tuberose · Monotheme Venezia
I blind bought Monotheme Tuberose because it is rumoured to be similar to Madonna Truth or Dare. That one is discontinued and I never got the chance to smell it. To my nose, Monotheme Tuberose opens

The Point · Clue Perfumery
When the short description of this scent simply said "a cup of jasmine tea, brewed with ocean water.", I thought it was just another flowery scent description (as in flowery writing not literal

The Stoop.B/5 · Parfums Obim
I lived in Brooklyn for 4 years while I was in art school and I know exactly what this fragrance is going for - the vibes of sitting on the stoop with your friends, waiting to go out or sitting on

Series 3 Incense: Avignon · Comme des Garcons
Imagine walking alone through an empty cathedral, light slanting through stained glass windows, where shadow and silence do most of the talking. As the immense wooden door creaks open, a wave of

Rabbit's Revenge · Arcana Wildcraft
When I purchased the discovery set for this collection, I wasn’t expecting this fragrance to be the easy winner. Arcana does vanilla (and gourmands) extremely well, but those often aren’t my personal

Durban Jane · Maison d’ETTO
From the notes, this should have been a hit. I love sandalwood. I love orris. I love ambrette. And to be fair, the top notes swirled with the iris and ambrette and presented a slightly peppery

Sangria+Saffron · Michael Malul
Sangria+Saffron is a deliciously tart, fresh fruity scent with a faint, slightly milky, vanillic base. It makes me think of an assortment of fresh fruit on a lightly sweetened vanilla buttercream
