Has anyone tried the sol de janeiro summer scents Sol de Janeiro Beijos de Sol Perfume Mist 3.04 oz / 90 mLSol de Janeiro Carioca Crush Perfume Mist 3.04 oz / 90 mL Sol de Janeiro Summer é Amor Perfume Mist 3.04 oz / 90 mL? I’m wondering if I should purchase or not. Are they the same as any of the existing scent numbers? My favorites are 59, 68, 62. I don’t like the smell of 48 or 40

I first became aware of Matiere Premiere fragrances wanting to try their Vanilla Powder scent. It's a pricey line so I treated myself to their Discovery Set with three 6 ml bottles. In addition to Vanilla Powder, I chose Santal Austral and Bois D'Ebene, as I love creamy, powdery, and sometimes musky woods. I opened the set and began last night with Bois D'Ebene: HOW MATIERE DESCRIBES BOIS D'EBENE: INITIAL IDEA: “A dark ambery wood”MAIN INGREDIENT: Guaiac Wood Oil ParaguayCREATIVE APPROACH: Strengthen the wood density of Guaiac with Patchouli Oil Indonesia and Cypriol Oil India. The ambery facet is accentuated by the addition of Cabreuva Oil Brazil. MY IMPRESSIONS:The scent opened for me with a strong Cypriol/Amber scent and projected quite a bit more than I was comfortable with but also smelled good (just to anyone within about 6 feet of me too),As the initial impression dried down, I mostly smelled Creamy Amber and Guaiac Woods and it projected less but was still strong,Waking up after applying it last night, it has settled into a soft powdery amber, softer notes from the Guaiac woods with a bit of patchouli. This is not your college roommate's feral, dark patchouli though, it is softer with a silvery, cedar edge that dries down to being a much more personal scent than experienced in the opening.SpoilerFor those not familiar with Cypriol scents, they are woody with elements of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar with elements of spice like black pepper and bay leaf. I would say the opening of this fragrance smelled most like Amber with bay leaf, vetiver, and cedar. Likewise, Guaiac Woods have a scent profile that can be described as smoky, woody, and slightly sweet or balsamic. I'm usually a Sandalwood lover and am just discovering Guaiac Woods. So far I find they have a creamy, sweeter element than Sandalwood.For those not familiar with Cypriol scents, they are woody with elements of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar with elements of spice like black pepper and bay leaf.

So far I find they have a creamy, sweeter element than Sandalwood.OVERALL THOUGHTS SO FAR:This is a scent that develops a story as it unfolds over time. It's very present 15 or so hours in and truly composed in a way that takes you on a journey from one ingredient to the other,I really like the full dry down that smells closer to the skin this morning but would say the Amber and Guaiac Woods dominate this fragrance for most the wear. Definitely a scent for people who like creamy Amber with a bit of a sharp cedar/bay leaf edge,Love the simple packaging and design. I don't know if this will be the scent for me vs. the others I selected but it's a generously sized bottle for a discovery set and I will revisit it. The packaging feels substantial and is well-designed. Even the 6 ml bottles probably wouldn't come close to shattering if accidentally dropped on the floor.SCENTS THIS REMINDS ME OF:The discontinued Siberian Snow by Dean & Durga,Ellis Brooklyn MYTH perhaps layered with their AMBER.
