Woodphoria (2022)

Boy Smells · 2022

Fruity · Sweet · Spicy

Boy Smells Woodphoria is a unisex fragrance built around sandalwood, cedarwood and cardamom, with a sweet, creamy softness running through its woody, spicy character. Woodphoria has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. It reads equally well on men and women. Sandalwood and cedarwood set a woody base, while cardamom and black pepper add spice. Coconut water and fig leaf bring a fruity freshness, and suede and musk lend a creamy, faintly leathery softness. Jasmine and lily of the valley stay in the background, and ambroxan smooths everything together. Boy Smells Woodphoria (2025) and L'Ateliero Urban Leather have a close profile.

Cashmere Kush

7.2

Boy Smells · 2022

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Boy Smells Cashmere Kush is a unisex scent that pairs a fresh, floral character with a soft, powdery and creamy feel. Its longevity and sillage are rated as moderate, though only a few voters have weighed in, so that picture is tentative. It sits fairly close to the skin and carries easily through the day. As a unisex perfume, it suits both men and women. The notes read as one blend rather than stages: heliotrope, tulip and hemp flower shape the floral side, while pink pepper and rhubarb add a light spice and tartness. Cashmere wood, musk and vetiver give it a woody base, and aldehydes and ambroxan lend a clean, synthetic brightness.

Hinoki Fantôme (2021)

7.1

Boy Smells · 2021

Fresh · Green · Sweet

Boy Smells Hinoki Fantôme (2021) is a woody, smoky unisex fragrance built around hinoki cypress, smoked leather and frankincense. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though both ratings rest on few votes. It has been discontinued, and it reads as neither distinctly masculine nor feminine. The notes blend as a single whole rather than unfolding in stages. Hinoki cypress, cypress and Atlas cedar form the woody frame, while smoked leather, tobacco and frankincense add the smoke. Oakmoss, cistus and patchouli bring an earthy depth, and iris and black pepper keep it from feeling heavy. The accords set a fresh, green streak beside a creamy, slightly sweet softness. Versace Fleur de Maté and Gom Rgyal Mo have a close profile.

Rose Load

7.3

Boy Smells · 2021

Floral · Synthetic · Spicy

Boy Smells Rose Load is a unisex floral rose scent hardened with spice, smoke and leather. It opens with rhubarb, cardamom and pink pepper, a lightly spicy start. Rose, raspberry blossom and Turkish rose absolute take over in the heart. Papyrus, sandalwood and oud settle it onto a woody, smoky base. Longevity and sillage are rated good, though on few votes. It suits anyone who likes rose dark and slightly synthetic rather than soft. Vilhelm Parfumerie Smoke Show and Ormonde Jayne Belle de Nuit have a close profile.

Vanilla Era (2023)

4.7

Boy Smells · 2023

Sweet · Synthetic · Woody

Boy Smells Vanilla Era is a sweet, woody unisex fragrance with a creamy, slightly powdery character built around vanilla absolute, coffee and amber. It has been discontinued. The notes read as a single blend: vanilla absolute and coffee absolute carry the sweetness and creaminess, while black amber and frankincense add an oriental warmth. Saffron and Madagascar pepper draw a spiced edge, and cashmere wood and Indian papyrus lay a woody base. White tulip and beetroot give the sweetness a faintly earthy, powdery softness. Its sillage is rated weak, so the scent stays fairly close to the skin, though few people have voted, so that view is tentative. With its sweet, warm profile it suits cooler days better, and it works equally well on men and women.

Violet Ends (2021)

7.3

Boy Smells · 2021

Floral · Green · Spicy

Boy Smells Violet Ends is a floral-green unisex scent that pairs violet with tobacco, leather and smoke; it has been discontinued. It opens with bergamot, black pepper, rhubarb and violet, which gives a spicy, green start. In the heart, tobacco, black tea, iris and frankincense pull it towards smoky, earthy ground. Silver birch, papyrus and leather form a woody, leathery base. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat these as a rough guide. It reads as neither strictly masculine nor feminine. It suits those who like tobacco, leather and green notes in a scent that is present without being loud. Boy Smells Violet Ends (2025) and Naomi Goodsir Iris Cendré have a close profile.

Coco Hinoki

5.8

Boy Smells · 2026

Sweet · Gourmand · Spicy

Boy Smells Coco Hinoki is a unisex scent that sets the creamy sweetness of coconut milk against the dry woodiness of hinoki cypress and cedarwood, with a smoky edge. Pear and tiaré give it a soft, lightly fruity and floral start, while coconut milk anchors that sweetness in a creamy, gourmand base. Hinoki cypress, cedarwood, amberwood and vetiver build the woody frame. Incense, papyrus and smoky notes add a spicy, resinous shadow, and black amber and musk keep the whole thing warm and soft. The balance between sweet and smoky suits those who like gourmand scents as well as those who lean towards woods. Filippo Sorcinelli Contre Bombarde 32 and Alkemia October's Amber Alchemy have a close profile.

Tantrum

6.2

Boy Smells · 2021

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Boy Smells Tantrum is a fresh, green unisex fragrance built around mint, bergamot and green pepper. It opens cool with mint and bergamot, while green pepper and galbanum add a bitter, leafy edge.

Caswell-Massey 2571 and Wide Society Acqua Travelis have a close profile.
