I know there are a few of us on BT that are fragrance addicts, so I thought it would be nice to have a dedicated place where we can share our thoughts.
This is not to take away from the lovely What Are You Wearing Today, Fragrance Edition thread, but more a place to post longer reviews, chat about new brands or releases, and just shoot the breeze on anything good and smelly 🙂
For me, I recently acquired 2 new decants that I've been anxiously awaiting. Ever since Lachaton mentioned that MMM was releasing a new scent called By The Fireplace I've been itching to get my hands on it. My decant arrived yesterday, so I'm looking forward to marinating in it this weekend. Secondly, I recently picked up a tiny sample of Shiseido Nombre Noir. Supposedly it is one of the most expensive failures in perfume history - made by Serge Lutens for Shiseido back in the 80s. Of course, with a backstory like that, I was dying to get a sniff 😄
What's new on your scent radar? Do tell!
@CyncynnI love the yellow colour too but I don't want my purse competing with my own perfume!
Read this is a chypre so now I'm more interested!
A fuller notes pyramid from a French website lists
@MochapjHm, not the most original notes but I will definitely try it. Thanks for the head's up!
New perfumes from Lush are available 🙂
Oh em gee @pocketvenus @michelleshops I’m soo broke after all that Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals but that Rose Jam perfume is coming home with me 😂🤣
@blackkitty2014please let us know how you find it 🙂
@pocketvenus Looks liked still have these available. In my local stores, they only have the little size left. I want the 100 ml bottle of Rose Jam so I might have to cough up shipping 🤣😂 Btw, seems liked they raise the price about $20 USD. I remember got a full-size for around $75 USD before
@blackkitty2014All the perfume houses are raising their prices 😞 Though maybe it's a different formula this time?? LUSH prices their perfumes differently depending on ingredients.
Yay @pocketvenus I saw they were live in the UK and I didn't see anything about them coming to the US. I'm so excited!
@michelleshopsthis is from the Canadian site, but definitely check out the US site because some are already sold out in Canada! 😮
@pocketvenus Oh my! I didn't even know these were coming. I just checked them out, and I want so many. Unfortunately I don't have a store nearby to test them out. Are you going to order any of them?
@PrettyPaintI think they're only available online? I haven't been able to test them and so have not purchased any but I see at least one is already completely sold out on the Canadian site 😮
Zoologist is coming out with a new fragrance called Bee. A curious fragrance to release during the winter.
The notes include orange, ginger syrup, royal jelly accord, broom, heliotrope, mimosa, orange flower, benzoin, labdanum, musks, sandalwood, tonka bean and vanilla.
Diptyque's Black Friday candle is really pretty this year. Baies is a rose and berry scent.
Dusita has a new release. I really like this house and the notes sound interesting
from Luckyscent
Le Pavillon d’Or is constructed as intricately as a Thai floating pavilion itself. Opening with the crisp, green chill of orris root and mint, the perfume feels immediately cooling; a hot brow soothed by splashes from a mountain stream. The peppery, citrusy nuances of the wild mentha citrata give the opening a fresh, almost classical feel. Soon after, an astonishing fig leaf accord moves into place, managing somehow to be both juicy and dry at the same time. Notes of sweet honeysuckle, boronia, white thyme, and Somalian frankincense render the fig leaf far more interesting than it oughtta be, with tendrils of sweet florals, smoky, and resinous herbal accents creating a heady-but-light whorl of scent. Underneath this all, a divine sandalwood dressed up with a complex, 30-note heliotrope accord give the scent a luxuriantly creamy, almondy base to bed it all down. Both aromatic and warm, Le Pavillon d’Or is a clever series of contrasts wrapped up in a bottle. We think it’s as delicately beautiful as the trio of lakes that inspired it.
Mint, honeysuckle, orris, boronia, thyme, olibanum, heliotrope, fig leaf, oak, sandalwood
Some more holiday candle releases
Its generous, characteristic smell of a balsam fir, slightly resinous, slowly guides us towards a reassuring forest.
A resinous aroma of smoking Japanese cypress and jasmine petals. Warm and meditative with an element of earthy spice notes and quiet, fresh moss.
Seeking advice from my fragrance junkie friends on here to help me decide whether or not to pick up TOM FORD Soleil Neige Shimmering Body Oil oil during the sale. I’ve read lots of reviews online about it but all I’m getting is that it’s slightly floral and smells like “winter” which doesn’t really help me at all. I don’t have a store near me that carries Soliel Neige so I want to see your thoughts on the fragrance and how you would describe the notes.
@gonerogueI also haven't smelled the oil but like @Mochapj the fragrance was not reminiscent of winter to me either. Definitely not like, pine-infused nordic air. Instead of crisp and bracing, it's soft and floral. Maybe it would work better as an oil than a fragrance?
