Namasté

Friendly Hunting · 2016

Green · Spicy · Woody

Friendly Hunting Namasté is a green, woody unisex scent that leans towards fall and winter days. Woods, frankincense, grass and resins make up the scent. The green of the grass sits on a woody, resinous base; spicy, earthy and smoky accords pull it towards warmth rather than coolness, while a creamy softness takes the edge off. Voters find the longevity strong and the sillage good. Most pick fall and winter, and choose it mainly for leisure and evenings. Masculine and feminine votes run close, so it sits comfortably between the two. Alkemia Hexennacht and Rito Oltre have a close profile.

Eyes of Marrakesh

7.3

Friendly Hunting · 2016

Citrus · Fruity · Spicy

Friendly Hunting Eyes of Marrakesh is a unisex scent that sets the brightness of lime against the warmth of spices, wood and oud. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though both rest on only a few votes and should be read loosely. Votes spread across all four seasons, with summer and spring slightly ahead and autumn and winter close behind. It suits men and women alike and wears easily through the day. Citrus and fruity accords come through the lime, while the spices and oud settle it onto a warm, resinous base. The wood note ties the woody and oriental sides together, so a fresh brightness and an eastern depth sit side by side.

Sun & Sea

7.7

Friendly Hunting · 2016

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Friendly Hunting Sun & Sea is a fresh, citrusy women's fragrance, with aquatic and green touches that suit easy everyday wear. The scent is built on citrus notes, sea buckthorn and fern: bright, green and lightly fruity. Vetiver and musk set that freshness on a dry base, while Peru balsam adds a soft, sweet, powdery and creamy undertone in the background. Voters place it mostly in leisure, daytime and office wear, with evening and sport further behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin, though the small number of votes makes this a tentative read. Its profile is close to M. Micallef EdenFalls and Gritti Neroli Extreme.
