One of the more boring Toskovat' scents

It's really just cherry with wayyy too much heliotropin... Maybe a hint of castoreum, if I squint. The cherry is a bit sour and synthetic, which I don't mind, but why would I spend that much money on synthetic cherry when I already got Cherry Punk? Also, Nobile 1942 Cafe Chantant did the same combo of sour cherry and h...

Animalic tar chaos (but I liked it)

My review will be biased, I am a sucker for a good birch tar note... This is animalic tar. Strong, viscous, black, feral. The dry-down is easier to handle, spicy, resinous, but also creamy and very, very slightly sweet. Also leathery and medicinal. All at once. It interests me. I only have a tiny sample but I wish to e...

Robot tomatoes?

You know how they took a human cop and turned him into a robot in RoboCop? Well, here they took tomatoes and turned them into robots :D TomatoCop! Seriously, this is a funky metallic tomato and basil scent, I like it! Weird "green blood" scent, in a way. Is this what my blood smells like since I've been vegan for 10 ye...

Cyberpunk rockstar

Wow. Distinct metal, sulfur, and aldehydes in the opening, I have never smelled anything like it! Then birch tar and burnt rubber come through, with dry cedar, laurel, and cardamom. It's weird but not off-putting, and I actually believe it to be totally wearable. I am a lover of good birch tar, so this is totally up my...

Midnight mass... by Mike Flanagan

Upon smelling this, I could not shake the association with the Flanagan's Midnight Mass series. The one with the vampire being worshiped as an angel in a small town in Maine? Powerful wine note in the opening, combined with incense and wax somehow manages to produce a scent not of a Christian mass but the opposite. An...

Early stages of love

This potion smells like "Butterflies in the stomach", early stages of love, in a bottle. Pretty little fresh pink roses and peach blossoms, with juicy lychee and noticeable oakmoss. Tuberose and jasmine are faintly observed in the background. It's cute and pretty, and smells like spring and blossoming love. I like this...

Lilacs and bird cherry

Do not be fooled by bergamot in the notes! This perfume has no citrus smell whatsoever! What it is is lilacs, lilacs, and bird cherry! I don't know if many people are familiar with a bird cherry flower (and berry) smell, it's very strong tart floral, almost poisonous scent. (Even though bird cherry is actually edible)....
