Burberry Her (2018) · Burberry
I have sniffed too many questionably old samples and some of the musks and woods and stale alcohols have left my nose feeling stained and dry - so have tried a couple of simple, slightly

Molecule 01 · Escentric Molecules
I was gifted a 01+ travel set for my birthday in May and still haven’t got round to sampling them all properly. Inspired by @happyducki, I’ve decided to do a 01+ week and will test a different one
Darkvanille
Corn Star · Fascent
I went on a perfume tour this weekend and asked the SA to “surprise me” with a sample so I would try something new. When I saw “pop corn, candy pear and marshmallow” I thought that it might not be my

Nio · Xerjoff
Nio is a picture perfect neroli/petitgrain scent; it’s not much more than that, but it does it perfectly. There are some other vaguely green notes in the background that make this more plant-y than

Doux Ennui · The House of Oud
Got this sample as a freebie and wow, how interesting! Creamy apricot and peach shine brightly. This is still a bit too sweet for my tastes but I like it more than I usually would like this combo-

Speed Legends - Night Drive · Ex Nihilo
I’ve not tried the OG, but I really like Night Drive. Spicy, herbal, fruity, semi sweet, but also dry. I typically don’t like barbershop or soapy fragrances, but here the sage interests me in ways

Lust in Paradise · Ex Nihilo
I had a bunch of scent mail come in recently but I didn't even get around to opening it today! Tomorrow I'll be off though 👀 Lots of new samples to try. I'm excited. Going out to dinner with Mr.

Tempo Eau de Parfum · Diptyque
I enjoy Tempo a lot, so much so that based on scent alone, I would describe it as my ultimate green patchouli. It's just such a shame how it's pretty much undetectable after a couple hours. If it had

Dior Addict · Dior
It’s nice, it’s not a masterpiece but it is a blackberry vanilla swirl with a cloudy fruity musky ambery gourmand kinda thing. The florals in this are bizarre to say the least, they don’t fit. This

Gucci No 3 Eau de Toilette · Gucci
Gucci No. 3? There was a 1 and 2? I never have read up on this fragrance and I happened upon some for a very good price! I knew a small amount about it— floral, greenish, aromatic, and legendary
Frankie
Sirène · Fragrance du Bois
Way too sweet for me. I liked it a lot on paper, but immediately after spraying myself I grimaced. Giving me a headache, will likely wash it off soon. I shy away from too fruity and too gourmand, but
STate
Floating Forest · Future Society
The smoke has cleared and I'm in the mood for something light and mossy. I just got a new fragrance enhancer to try, so I'm very hopeful it will help with the silage and longevity of this perfume

Azonto · Montagne Parfums
I just unpacked my first montagne perfume, I had tried Ambery Vetiver by Dossier before which is also a dupe of Bal d'Afrique. BUT I will say, so far, the Montagne one feels slightly less sweet and a

Velvet Tonka · BDK Parfums
Hanging out with my sister. I feel like this one smells even better after having it about a week (I think it needed to settle after being transported). I still detect a little Jasmine White Leather

Apex · Roja London
Roja's Apex is one of my favorites from the house. This is a very nice spicy green scent that works no matter what you are doing. Most would probably say it is more suited for evening or nights I
Paula
Lemon Island · Atelier Cologne
A bright, breezy escape in a bottle. Lemon Island feels like a slow morning on a sun-drenched beach where the air is thick with salt and citrus. It skips the usual sugary cologne sweetness, opting
Cale_Dooper
Coriander · D.S. & Durga
So good. Spicy but in a cold kind of way. Then dries down to a semi sweet citrusy soap. Very unique and one of my favorite lighter freshies. It’s really hard to describe the smell but also how it
Hook Left
Hacivat X · Nishane
This was the reach when my brain finally calmed down enough to go into vacation mode! Hacivat is one of my favorites and the X gives it less moss and more sweet notes. My nose never goes blind to

Le Dix Perfume · Balenciaga
I am fortunate to own a pristine and most beautiful Fleurs de Métieres vintage refillable travel spray from the 1950’s. Someone early got it as a gift and promptly put it, boxed and all, in a drawer

Never-Ending Summer · Maison Margiela
@clean_ship6776 SOTD during the week reminded me to dig out my sample. First impressions as I’ve only had it on my skin for an hour. This opens with a blast of boozy orange. It’s not a fizzy Aperol

Polo · Ralph Lauren
Finally got to try this classic today. I got out of the gym and saw this at the local decant shop, and decided to buy 5ml of it immediately. It opens with an intense green smell, as its name

Eau Rose · Diptyque
I went to see my (adopted) grandparents for dinner. They grilled some food and we had a great time catching up! It's been awhile. I thought Eau Rose would be a great pick. A fresh, natural, and light

Néroli Hasbaya · Atelier Materi
I’m usually not a huge fan of nutty accords in fragrances, not that I mind the smell of nuts, they just usually smell synthetic and cloying and get overbearing after a while. Neroli Hasbaya might be

Morning Chess · Vilhelm Parfumerie
Smelled this during my first niche perfume adventure, and thought I hated it. Turns out I don’t! 😅 I think my brain shifted into fight or flight that day bc it was being assaulted by a f*ckton of
