Lumberman

Nōse

Green · Sweet · Spicy

Nōse Lumberman is a unisex scent that sets the green bite of British cannabis, absinth and thyme against the dark base of castoreum, leather and tobacco. It opens with British cannabis, absinth, thyme and elemi resin, green and spicy. The heart of black pepper, black tea, catechu, Cambodian oud and Somalian frankincense turns resinous, smoky and earthy. The base of castoreum, sandalwood, vetiver, tobacco and leather dominates, with a touch of sweetness softening the woody, leathery ground. Voters rate its longevity as strong and its sillage as good, though the sample is small, so treat that as a rough guide. Its dense character suits cooler weather and evenings, and it sits comfortably on anyone. Balmain Carbone and Byredo Cuir Sellier share a close profile.

Meadow Tea

7.9

Nōse

Citrus · Floral · Green

Nōse Meadow Tea is a unisex tea-like scent that opens with a bright citrus and floral freshness, then lays a sweet, resinous depth beneath its green tea heart. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. It sits comfortably on both men and women. It opens with wild bergamot, linden blossom and Madagascan lemongrass for a bright, green start. At the heart, green tea absolute leads, vanilla sweetens it gently, and poplar bud keeps the green note going. In the base, cistus and ambergris carry it into a spicy, earthy, faintly smoky drydown. Euphorium Brooklyn Usar and Jovoy Psychédélique have a close profile.

Day Off

8.2

Nōse

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Nōse Day Off is a unisex perfume that wraps a sweet floral core in spice, wood and resin, and ends on a lightly smoky note. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling the room. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing more can be said on that; the scent itself reads balanced between masculine and feminine. Italian tuberose and black pepper open it, the floral side sharpened by spice. In the heart, Virginia cedar, frankincense and benzoin build a woody, resinous and sweet warmth. In the base, oakmoss, ambergris and labdanum pull that warmth toward an earthy, smoky tone. Floral and sweet lead its accords.

Awake

6.8

Nōse

Fresh · Green · Sweet

Nōse Awake is a fresh, green unisex fragrance that pairs the chill of fir and black spruce with woody Lebanon cedar and blue cypress. The top notes of fir and black spruce open it cool and forest-like. In the heart, Lebanon cedar and blue cypress build a woody frame, while spicy, resinous and earthy accords push it towards a dry, faintly smoky feel. The base of musk and ambergris leaves a soft, slightly sweet and synthetic-leaning finish. Andrea Maack Birch and Miller Harris Vétiver Bourbon have a close profile.
