Encens Suave is a sweet airy frankincense fragrance. By "airy" I mean it is the sharp flinty frankincense of Series 3: Incense - Avignon, Cardinal, or Mortel, rather than the denser resinous frankincense found in many Amouages for example. The sweetness is a bit too much here, and I find it similar to a similar accord...
Read review →A nauseating, calone-heavy sharp peppery aquatic. Unbalanced, the citrus and aromatics don’t come through anywhere near how much they should, hidden behind a fog of ozonic/aquatic chemicals. Kind of reminds me of Aqva pour Homme Eau de Toilette but more synthetic and headache-inducing. Retail price is $65 so you can’t...
Read review →Xocoatl smells like it's straight out of Kilian's "The Cellars" collection. I'm definitely drawing parallels to Straight to Heaven, White Cristal Perfume. There's a similar woody/boozy patchouli/rum thing going on here, just not as "dirty" as Straight to Heaven's patchouli. The notes listing on Parfumo seems to be inco...

Read review →I was ready to hate Blueberry Morning. This fragrance was the first I tried from the large Aromas de Salazar sample set, and I usually start with the one I think I'm going to dislike the most so I can save the best for last (for those interested, I'm looking forward to Tabac Du Jour the most). I have tried one of this...
Read review →Strangely, Haibah opens with a blast of animalic barnyardy oud. I say strangely, since there are an apparent FIFTEEN top/head notes that are supposed to temper the oud's strong opening. I don't perceive any. The mid is also pretty oud-dominant, with not too many other notes coming through. Only about an hour in do you...
Read review →Got a decant of this because it was being hyped on a Facebook group I'm a part of. It's decent but it seems almost arbitrary what fragrances get hyped up because I wouldn't look twice at this one if it was amongst other designer-y freshies. The opening and scent in the air is a slightly salty calone/ambroxan-based soap...
Read review →On first spraying Sleepy Hollow, you smell heady jasmine combined with fall spices. Eventually this leads to a sort of dank and musty accord that dominates the rest of the fragrance. Mostly it smells like dead leaves and hay, furthering the "fall" theme. I think this is the first time in perfumery where I've really fel...

Read review →On first spray of Oud Luwak II, I felt similarity to choco-ouds I had tried before: Oud Indochine, Lao Oud Extrait de Parfum, Oud Monarch Extrait de Parfum to a lesser extent, but deeper and more animalic, as if a dose of Al Oud had been added to one of those. It is also very light on the sweetness, bitter strong coffe...
Read review →Atlantic Ambergris II is essentially a soapy chypre with the animalic facet provided by ambergris rather than the more traditional civet or castoreum. It's heavy on the tonka bean giving it an old-school feel, especially combined with the florals, bergamot, and oakmoss. I was going into this one expecting a powerful am...
