Lord of Misrule (Perfume)

Lush · 2014

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Lush Lord of Misrule is a sweet, spicy unisex scent that suits autumn and winter evenings. Vanilla absolute, patchouli and black pepper are read together throughout. The vanilla lays down a creamy, sweet base, the patchouli adds an earthy, woody weight, and the black pepper brings a spicy edge. Oriental and resinous undertones and a faint smokiness keep the sweetness from turning sugary. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out. Votes on character split closely between feminine and masculine, so it sits comfortably on either. Demeter Fragrance Library Patchouli and Der dufte Engel Patchouly have a close profile.

Breath of God (Perfume)

7.0

Lush · 2007

Fresh · Floral · Green

Lush Breath of God is a unisex perfume that most voters place in autumn and winter, and that suits leisure hours and evenings. Both its longevity and sillage are rated good. Voters lean towards autumn, then winter and spring, with summer chosen less often. More voters find it masculine than feminine, though a fair share call it feminine, so it sits comfortably on either side. It reads fresh, floral and green: lemon and neroli bring brightness, jasmine and rose build the floral side, and melon adds a light fruity touch. Beneath that, sandalwood, cedarwood and vetiver give a woody, earthy, slightly smoky base, softened by amber and musk with a resinous warmth.

A spicy edge ties it into one herbal whole. Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, spring and summer, with winter chosen less often.

6.5

Lush · 2012

Floral · Green · Fruity

Leisure and daily wear lead, and it works in the evening too. Voters lean towards calling it feminine, though many see it as modern.

Fruity and lightly spicy touches round out the soft, sweet picture. Pacifica Indian Coconut Nectar and Yves Rocher Cap Nature Vanille have a close profile.

Toucan

7.0

Zoologist · 2026

Floral · Green · Fruity

Zoologist Toucan is a creamy unisex scent that pairs a sweet, fruity opening of coconut, papaya and orange with a floral heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang. Coconut, papaya, orange and lime come first, the fruit sweet but kept fresh by a green edge. In the heart, ylang-ylang, jasmine, geranium and orange blossom add a soft floral layer. The base of tonka bean, vanilla and benzoin settles into a creamy, sweet finish, with sandalwood and clove taking the edge off the sweetness. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure and daily wear lead the occasions, with night out close behind. Votes for modern, feminine and masculine sit close together, so it doesn't lean clearly to either side. Roberto Ugolini Loafer and Boucheron Tubéreuse de Madras have a close profile.

ånd fragrance · 2020

Fresh · Green · Fruity

In the base, labdanum, benzoin and Australian sandalwood sweeten it and turn it creamy and smoky. Voters find the longevity strong and the sillage good, and most of those who rated longevity gave it a high score.

Frånk (Parfum)

6.9

ånd fragrance · 2020

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

In the heart, mango and ylang-ylang add a sweet, fruity softness, while frankincense brings a resinous edge. The base of myrrh, frankincense and vanilla gives it a powdery, creamy footing. Lolita Lempicka Elle L'Aime and Montblanc Signature (Eau de Parfum) share a close profile.
