Eau de Parfum

Angela Flanders Earl Grey Eau de Parfum is a fresh, green unisex scent that pairs bright bergamot with tea and rosewood. Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. Leisure, business and daytime wear lead the votes, with evening and night out following. It opens with bergamot's citrus. In the heart, rosewood, palmarosa and tea add a floral, green tone, and patchouli and clove settle it onto a spicy, woody, earthy base. The chypre character keeps the freshness on a dry frame. Boucheron pour Homme and Guerlain Philtre d'Amour have a close profile.

Eau de Toilette

Angela Flanders Artillery No. 4 - Vetivert Eau de Toilette is a fresh, green and woody unisex scent built around vetiver, bergamot and lavender. The notes read as a single whole: the citrus brightness of bergamot meets lavender, while the earthy greenness of vetiver carries the most weight. Spices and precious woods sit behind them, giving a dry, woody base. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters lean towards spring and autumn but spread their picks across all four seasons, and it suits business, evening and daily wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though it remains a unisex scent. Hermès Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver and Louis Vuitton Orage have a close profile.

Cashmere Noir

Floral · Sweet · Synthetic

Angela Flanders Cashmere Noir is a unisex scent with a sweet, powdery and woody character, shaded by floral and resinous touches. Longevity is rated good, with half of voters scoring it high, though the sample is small. With no season or occasion votes to go on, it is enough to say it suits men and women alike, leaning neither clearly masculine nor feminine. Cashmeran and amber form the body, while heliotrope and iris add a soft, powdery floral note. Cedarwood gives a woody frame and tolu balm brings a resinous warmth to the sweetness. Spicy and faintly animal tones stay in the background. Diana Vreeland Full Gallop and Maison Mona di Orio Chamarré have a close profile.
