nBitor

Sweet · Synthetic · Spicy

nBitor Babieca is a dense unisex scent where sweetness meets smoky, leathery and animalic tones. The top holds saffron, cade juniper, raspberry and aldehydes, with the raspberry sweetness set against a spicy, smoky edge. Osmanthus, tobacco, hay and cypriol lead the heart.

Longevity and sillage are rated strong, though only a small number of voters have weighed in. Its heavy, assertive character calls for a deliberate hand.

Bucaro Royal

8.3

nBitor · 2024

Spicy · Woody · Oriental

nBitor Bucaro Royal is a spicy, woody and smoky unisex fragrance that opens with bergamot and grapefruit and sets rose, raspberry and narcissus against tobacco in the heart. Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing more specific can be said about when to wear it. It reads as unisex, neither clearly masculine nor feminine. Bergamot and grapefruit give a brief, bright start. In the heart, rose and raspberry add a fruity sweetness that narcissus and tobacco darken. The base of coumarin, oakmoss, gaiac wood, sandalwood and vanilla settles into a resinous, earthy ground, with castoreum strengthening the animal side. Grossmith Saffron Rose and Sospiro Classica have a close profile.

Hombre de Palo

7.0

nBitor

Fresh · Green · Synthetic

nBitor Hombre de Palo is a fresh, green and woody unisex scent built around camphor, thyme, hinoki cypress and oakmoss. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on only a handful of votes, so they are best read with caution. There are no season or occasion votes, so it can't be tied to a particular time of year. It does not lean masculine or feminine and suits either wearer. Camphor and thyme give a cool, spicy opening. In the heart, rosewood and hinoki cypress set a dry, clean woodiness. The base adds oakmoss, myrrh, oak wood, Atlas cedar, costus and geosmin, bringing an earthy, resinous, slightly animal depth with a synthetic edge.

nBitor

Floral · Aquatic · Green

Voters rate its longevity as very strong and its sillage as strong, so it is a perfume that carries across a room and stays on skin for a long time. There are no season or occasion votes, so it is better not to guess where it fits. It opens with bergamot, honey, jasmine and ozone, and moves into cocoa, sandalwood, oud and salt at the heart. The base holds musk, opoponax, benzoin, oakmoss and labdanum. Green, spicy, creamy and animal touches run through the sweet, gourmand core.

Taraq

6.6

nBitor

Fruity · Sweet · Synthetic

nBitor Taraq is a unisex oriental that pairs a fruity, sweet side with spice, oud and leather.

It opens with plum, saffron and dried fruits, sweet and spicy. Oud, leather, rose and dried date form the heart, and patchouli, musk, amber and sandalwood settle into a resinous, earthy, woody base.

Akelarre

5.8

nBitor · 2023

Fresh · Aquatic · Fruity

nBitor Akelarre is an unusual unisex scent that hides earthy, smoky and animal tones beneath a fresh, aquatic face. Voters rate both longevity and sillage as very strong, though only a small number of votes stand behind these ratings. That intensity makes it a perfume that announces itself rather than a light everyday choice. It is not tied to one gender and suits men and women alike. It opens with cinnamon, dried fruits, coffee, apple and white truffle together. In the heart, geosmin, metallic notes, cypriol and rose bring earthiness and edge. The base of patchouli, cedar, hyraceum and amber lays down a woody, resinous, animal foundation.

Santalla
