Jour 8

Majouri · 2019

Fruity · Sweet · Spicy

Majouri Jour 8 is a unisex fragrance that sets thyme, saffron and raspberry over a base of amber and leather, in a fruity and spicy style. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters point to night and evening, with daily and leisure wear close behind and business use getting fewer votes. It reads neither masculine nor feminine, and suits men and women alike. It opens with the spicy freshness of thyme and the warmth of saffron, set against sweet raspberry. Jasmine in the heart softens that edge a little. As it dries, amber's sweetness and leather come forward, and the woody and leathery accords shape what stays on the skin. Tom Ford Tuscan Leather (Eau de Parfum) and Lelas Leather Blend have a close profile.

Mimosa Verveine

8.0

L'Occitane en Provence · 2025

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

L'Occitane en Provence Mimosa Verveine is a fresh, green floral that pairs a citrusy brightness with a soft, powdery finish, and it is worn as a unisex scent. Vervain gives the scent a crisp, green lift. Jasmine and mimosa shape the floral core, while moss adds a faint earthy depth underneath. The citrus feel stays in front and the powdery side softens the whole. Its longevity and sillage are rated weak, though few votes have been cast, so that picture is tentative. It suits anyone wanting something light and quiet that stays close to the skin. Guerlain Petit Guerlain and Fragonard Vrai share a close profile.
