Masae Aida no Tebukuro

Phronema Perfumes · 2023

Citrus · Floral · Spicy

Phronema Perfumes Masae Aida no Tebukuro is a dense, many-layered unisex scent that opens with citrus and flowers and darkens into spice, resin, smoke and leather. The top is bright with bergamot, lemon, caraway and black pepper, while raspberry and blackberry add a touch of fruit. In the heart, rose, tuberose, honey and tobacco carry the floral sweetness onto a warmer base. The base is led by leather, amber, patchouli, vetiver and Chinese oud, with birch tar and civet adding a smoky, animalic depth. The accords gather around woody, resinous and leathery. The result reads dark and characterful rather than fresh. Liaison de Parfum Resist Me and Bortnikoff Classica have a close profile.

Rose Fantôme

7.7

Lvnea

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Lvnea Rose Fantôme is a chypre-leaning women's perfume that sets rose against oakmoss, oak wood and soil. The scent reads more earthy and woody than floral. Rose sits softly beside the oakmoss and oak wood, while soil and cep add a damp, forest-floor depth. Immortelle and hay sweeten it a little and bring a spicy warmth, and a powdery edge smooths the overall impression. Anyone drawn to earthy chypre styles may find a close profile in Parfum d'Empire Immortelle Corse and Bottega Veneta Eau de Parfum.

8.1

Lazarus Douvos · 2020

Floral · Green · Sweet

Lazarus Douvos Rose 1845 is a floral scent for women that sets rose within a green, sweet and resinous frame. The top is rose otto, geranium and Grasse rose absolute, so the rose opens with a green, spicy edge. The heart brings Tasmanian myrtle, Tasmanian boronia and immortelle, which pull the scent towards earthy and woody ground. In the base, patchouli, benzoin and tonka bean soften the rose with a sweet, resinous warmth.

Whispering Kiss

8.1

Le Persona Fragrance · 2025

Le Persona Fragrance Whispering Kiss is a unisex scent that sets a spicy opening of cardamom, pepper and ginger against the warmth of cognac and rum, settling into vanilla and patchouli. The top is cardamom, immortelle, pepper and ginger, so it opens spicy and dry. Sage and adzuki bean sit in the heart, with cognac and rum softening it and adding warmth. The base brings vanilla sweetness, while patchouli, vetiver, amber and woody notes keep it earthy and woody. Ralph Lauren Polo Blue Gold Blend and Zara EAU/02 Tanto Amore have a close profile.

Alchermes

8.1

De Gabor · 2023

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

De Gabor Alchermes is a unisex scent that pairs a fresh, citrusy opening with a spicy, resinous and woody depth. The top notes bring peach, orange, pink grapefruit and bergamot into a bright fruit-and-citrus mix, with cinnamon and saffron adding spice. In the heart, hay, lavender, red leather and patchouli come forward while iris adds a soft, powdery touch. The base gathers vetiver, amber, labdanum and sandalwood into a resinous, woody foundation. Its longevity is rated good, though this rests on only a few votes. The profile is balanced enough to sit comfortably on either men or women. Omanluxury Overdose and Creed Royal Princess Oud have a close profile.

Floral · Green · Spicy

Liquid S&X

7.4

Dark Tales · 2024

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Dark Tales Liquid S&X is a creamy unisex scent in which a floral, sweet body is darkened by spice, resin and smoke. It opens with ylang-ylang, pink pepper, linen, iris and red grapefruit side by side, the floral side kept in check by spice and citrus freshness. In the heart, hay, magnolia, caramel and rambler rose come forward, and the sweetness becomes clearer. Black musk, benzoin, styrax, vanilla and ebony leave a resinous, woody, slightly leathery warmth at the base. Earthy and smoky accords deepen the sweetness without weighing it down. Tom Ford Noir and Le Labo Patchouli 24 have a close profile.

Mia Murza

5.8

Testa Maura

Citrus · Floral · Green

Testa Maura Mia Murza is a unisex scent that opens with citrus and settles into a resinous, earthy base with a faint animal edge. Bergamot brings a fresh, slightly green citrus at the start, while immortelle in the heart adds a floral, spicy tone. The base is led by patchouli, Peru balsam and labdanum: the scent turns woody, powdery and resinous, with earthy and animal shades that keep it dry rather than sweet. Salvador Dali Sunrise in Cadaquès and Diptyque Eau Nabati have a close profile.

Nefertiti (Parfum Extrait)

7.4

Maher Olfactive · 2019

Floral · Sweet · Synthetic

Maher Olfactive Nefertiti is a unisex perfume that pairs a floral, sweet character with a smoky, woody shadow. Jasmine and honey stay prominent throughout, while orchid leaf adds a green freshness to the sweetness. Frankincense, oud and vetiver give the scent a spicy, woody, smoky depth. Immortelle and cigarette darken the mood without making it harsh, and musk gathers everything onto a soft base. It suits those who like gourmand sweetness alongside smoky woods, and who lean towards floral scents with a darker edge. Penhaligon's The Bewitching Yasmine and Rue Broca Pride My Oud have a close profile.

Green Tea

7.3

Ravenscourt Apothecary

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Ravenscourt Apothecary Green Tea is a fresh, green women's fragrance in which citrus and floral touches meet an earthy base. Green tea and lemon grass give it a crisp, grassy freshness, while palmarosa nudges that freshness in a lightly floral direction. Galbanum sharpens the green side, and oakmoss and cedarwood settle the scent onto an earthy, woody ground. Clove adds a spicy edge, and immortelle leaves a resinous, faintly smoky trace. The result is more herbal and angular than a typical tea scent, yet well balanced. Andrea Maack Coven and Olfactive Studio Autoportrait have a close profile.
