Musc Blanc & Lin

Berdoues · 2024

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Berdoues Musc Blanc & Lin is a clean, soft feminine scent built around neroli, cotton flower and white musk. Neroli opens with a fresh floral lift, and cotton flower comes forward in the heart. Cashmere wood and white musk set the base, leaving it powdery, creamy and slightly sweet; the overall feel is fresh and clean, with a somewhat synthetic edge. Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while autumn and winter stay in the background. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and is chosen less for evenings and nights out. Most votes call it feminine. Juliette Has A Gun Musc Invisible and Shay & Blue Cotton Flower have a close profile.

Opal

8.2

Boadicea the Victorious · 2025

Floral · Green · Spicy

Boadicea the Victorious Opal is a unisex fragrance that pairs a spicy opening of cinnamon, bergamot and coffee with a floral heart of orris butter, geranium and rose. The top is led by cinnamon, bergamot, coffee, saffron and black pepper, with metallic notes and laurel alongside. In the heart, orris butter, geranium, lavender and rose give a floral and green tone, while cocoa butter and suede add a creamy softness. The base of patchouli, sandalwood, cedarwood, musk and roasted tonka bean settles into a woody, resinous ground. Most voters find both longevity and sillage strong, so it stays on skin for a long time and carries well. Its animal and spicy side suits cooler weather and evenings best. Its value-for-money rating is low.

Imber

6.6

Memoize · 2025

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Memoize Imber is a sweet, woody unisex fragrance that softens a spicy opening with honey, flowers and vanilla. Black pepper, pink pepper and ginger give the top a sharp spice line, while blackcurrant and cherry add a fruity edge. The heart turns floral with osmanthus, orange blossom and rose, and honey pushes it sweeter. Vetiver, amber and patchouli form a woody base, with vanilla sweetening the dry-down. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick it for spring and fall, with winter close behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear, and votes split evenly between masculine and feminine, so it sits in the middle.

Monoï & Coco

7.1

Berdoues · 2024

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Berdoues Monoï & Coco opens with coconut, lemon and bergamot, then turns creamy around frangipani and tiaré: a fresh, fruity scent for women. The citrus brightness of lemon and bergamot meets the soft sweetness of coconut at the start. In the heart, frangipani and tiaré add a warm floral note, and the base of musk, sandalwood and vanilla settles everything into a smooth, creamy finish. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer, then spring; it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with some using it at the office. Its character is mostly described as feminine and modern.

Misbah

8.6

Boadicea the Victorious · 2026

Fresh · Fruity · Spicy

Boadicea the Victorious Misbah is a spicy, woody unisex fragrance that opens on rum, pimento and black pepper and settles into vetiver, patchouli and vanilla. Voters find its longevity and sillage strong, though these views rest on few votes. With no season or occasion votes, it is best not to tie it to one time of year; as a unisex scent it reads neither masculine nor feminine. The top of rum, pimento, rhubarb and black pepper is fresh and spicy. Cinnamon, orris root, galbanum and Greek saffron lead the heart. The base of vetiver, patchouli, labdanum and Bourbon vanilla leaves a woody, oriental warmth. Creed Original Santal and Ministry of Oud Amber Oud have a close profile.

Elysium Absolue

7.5

Roja Parfums · 2026

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Roja Parfums Elysium Absolue is a fragrance for women that pairs a fresh, fruity opening with a floral, sweet and creamy body. Voters find both its longevity and its sillage good, with longevity slightly ahead. The number of votes is small, so this reads as a first impression rather than a firm verdict. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing can be said about them. It opens with fig, lychee, raspberry and blackcurrant, which give a fruity freshness. Towards the heart, rose absolute, ylang-ylang, tuberose and neroli add a full floral layer. The base settles on musk, sandalwood, benzoin and vetiver, woody, sweet and faintly animal, with pink pepper adding a touch of spice. Stéphane Humbert Lucas Pink Boa and Bond No. 9 Queens have a close profile.
