Sessile

Mellifluence Perfume

Green · Sweet · Spicy

Mellifluence Perfume Sessile is a green, woody and smoky unisex scent that opens on hyraceum and key lime and deepens into white oud, vetiver and mushroom absolute; it has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated good, while sillage stays moderate, so it is noticed up close rather than across a room. It leans neither masculine nor feminine. The opening is carried by hyraceum and key lime. In the heart, white oud, vetiver, muhuhu and gurjum balsam build a woody frame. The base of mushroom absolute, Indian oud, Cambodian oud, oakmoss and labdanum gives an earthy, resinous, smoky floor, with sweet and spicy touches staying in the background.

Tadasu No Mori II

8.1

Mellifluence Perfume

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Mellifluence Perfume Tadasu No Mori II is a unisex scent that sets a floral and fruity opening over a sweet, resinous and woody base; it has been discontinued. Champaca, osmanthus and plum lead the top, with boronia and mimosa absolute rounding out the floral-fruity picture. In the heart, vanilla resinoid and cherry absolute deepen the sweetness while green tea softens it a little. The base is framed by hinoki and Indian sandalwood, with Thai oud and hay absolute adding an earthy, spicy depth. Voters rate longevity as good and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these figures are tentative. Its unisex character means it should read comfortably on either men or women. Folkwinds Jasper no Kodō II and Blackbird Anemone have a close profile.

Sahra

7.8

Mellifluence Perfume · 2021

Fruity · Sweet · Spicy

Mellifluence Perfume Sahra is a spicy, earthy unisex fragrance that sets the sweetness of apricot against the woody, resinous depth of oud and sandalwood. Sahra has been discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters find the longevity high. It suits men and women alike, with a dense, warm character. The top has cardamom, frankincense, apricot and bergamot, so the fruity sweetness picks up a spicy, resinous edge from the cardamom and frankincense. In the heart, ginger, patchouli and ambergris sit with false sandalwood and Indonesian oud. The base carries Australian sandalwood, Cambodian oud and Thai oud, keeping the woody, animal tone going.

Royal Green III

8.3

Mellifluence Perfume

Fresh · Green · Spicy

Mellifluence Perfume Royal Green III is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, green frame around spicy, woody and resinous tones, with smoky and earthy shades; it has been discontinued. Longevity is rated good and so is sillage, and most voters find it lasts a long time. The number of votes is small, so these judgements deserve some caution. Nothing can be said about seasons or occasions; it is simply a unisex fragrance with no gendered lean. The notes read as a single whole: yuzu, lime and neroli give a bright green lift, while frankincense, benzoin and styrax add resinous depth. Laotian, Thai and Chinese oud with Virginia cedar form the woody, smoky side, and ambergris and Kashmiri deer musk settle it onto a soft, creamy base. Olive and Greenland moss feed the earthy greenness.

Asiya Imperial

8.3

Mellifluence Perfume

Fresh · Floral · Green

Mellifluence Perfume Asiya Imperial is a unisex scent that pairs a fresh, floral character with green, spicy and resinous touches over a woody body; it has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated moderate, at 6.5 out of 10. It sits comfortably on both men and women, without leaning toward either. Copal resin, blue lotus and Persian rose sit side by side. Papua oud and sandalwood build a woody base, pear and apple add a fruity freshness, and civet leaves an animal trace.

Tongana

8.8

Mellifluence Perfume

Fresh · Green · Spicy

Mellifluence Perfume Tongana is a unisex scent built on hay absolute, patchouli and Canadian hemlock absolute, with a fresh, green, woody character; it has been discontinued. Hay, wood and earth lead the scent. Hay and hemlock set a green, fresh ground, while patchouli, labdanum and styrax add a resinous, earthy depth. Thai oud and Indonesian oud absolute darken the woody frame, and Indian black tea and juniper berry draw a spicy, slightly dry line. Civet and ambergris stay in the background. Profumum Roma Thundra and Bois 1920 Cannabis have a close profile.

Majmua Imperial

8.5

Mellifluence Perfume

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Mellifluence Perfume Majmua Imperial is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, citrusy brightness against green, woody and animalic depth; it has been discontinued. The notes read as a single whole rather than in stages: yuzu and lime bring a sharp lift, sitting alongside the floral softness of narcissus absolute and frangipani absolute. Beneath them, Thai oud, tree moss and fir absolute build a woody, green and earthy base. Frankincense absolute adds a resinous note, while costus absolute and civet absolute bring an animal warmth that ambergris softens. The spicy accord underlines the eastern character of the majmua. The result is a scent with real character that carries fresh and heavy notes together.
