Fragrance Quick Story This opens close to Lost in Flowers remember that one. That was 9 a ml for only an edp. This is literally pur parfum they have it classified wrong at 50% ingredients keep that in mind. It’s literally a bouquet of flowers on the application. What do I mean; Just like natural flowers when you wave them around you get different wafts, you pick up various aromas from the mix of the flowers. You get different parts of the flower each time. Sometime the middle indolic fumes, sometimes the narcotic outputs, and sometimes the aromatic floral that most designer capture and that’s it. You can tell this is natural by what you pick up, you get varying aromas as you wear and it just encaptures you. You can’t help but be uplifted no matter how down you are. Fragrance in my opinion compared to Perfumes Notes Full bouquet of flower vary, mostly indolic notes with a fume of florals from the sillage and narcotic. Flowers are so powerful citrus doesn’t show up for fifteen minutes. It is a mandarin and grapefruit note list, but neither show up as there own note just hold the florals together as a tight bouquet. Ah it’s black currant rounding off the citrus roundup and the mandarin is a red one. Another fifteen minutes and some strong orientals move in a strong clove. No orintals are mentioned, but I pick them up pretty strongly. Houston we have a company laying down that base this base is well put together and includes all the necessary elements for a long lasting perfume. Labdanum, Oakmoss, Vetiver, Hyraceum Absolute, Civet, Benzoin, Musk Literally hitting on all of this lab floats on top and mixes in adding dynamic to moss notes. Civet and Hyraceum just play along on top of moss after just eating some sweet benzoin that was on top of vetiver. This is a super strong all aspect of floral fragrance that citrus hide behind before peaking out, that heavy animalics take forever to show there face, it hits on three clear transitions for a brilliant wearing.

Someone needs to send a sample to Strangelove NYC…this is how you get lost in Flowers….from top to base
Nice, that gave me a good chuckle this morning. I filmed this three months ago and I usually revisit the fragrance while I edit the video. This fragrance really needs more attention it is very well done IMHO. Just doesn't have a big marketing budget like a Stangelove behind it.
I just ordered a sample. I am excited about getting this perfume my nose.
If it's not to late Eve is getting a ton of attention this year as well. I just ordered a sample of it.
Therapeutic Fragrance ???? I am ahead of you kiddo, I also ordered this beauty. I can’t wait to dive into this Perfume House.
Perfect, that's what I like.
Wearing this today…. swooning…. ahhhhhhh need this comfort scent.. she mixes synthetics in to her naturals like a surgeon and master architect. I normally do not have much tolerance for fruity sweetness but everything is done so well. The notes are all of my favorites after coming out of a drunken perfume haze I didn’t even realize that they are ones are used in most all of my scents- perhaps this is why I’m so enamored…But when a perfumer does them with such grace and they’re own spirit who gives a fiddlers fart. It is a perfume that will definitely wear differently depending what’s your skin chemistry is up to day to day like most glorious perfumes with high-quality naturals. I adore her perfumes for their very clear vision and excellent quality ingredients… after my own heart..
So lovely to see her review here… though I am quite belated to it. 🙂
Ahaha so funny, Dan from the Wafts send me a sample of this and I thought of you straight away then noticed you had a video that I missed! It's a beauty
Oh Nice! It's been a long while on this one. She is one of the only ones I skipped in the Artisan category this year at the are and olfaction awards. The sample ended up being a little too much. This is my favorite work of hers that I've smelled. I am still trying to work out getting my HJ Chypre unfortunately never on sale, but masterpieces shouldn't be.
@Therapeutic Fragrance Henry Jacques is never on sale indeed. Which one you're getting? Ulysse or Roi Sans Equipage?
Roi Sans would be my first.
@Therapeutic Fragrance the only perfume I have a backup bottle, yes a very expensive backup bottle ????
