## Top reviews
- ★5/5 — Spring, Fall — "Gris Charnel starts off very green and fruity as the fig and black tea note are most prominent, this opening is very unique and addictive - drawing you in further. As it settles on the skin, it grows warm and sweet with cardamom and tonka, with a gentle floral heart of iris. The result is absolutely stunning.  In the dry down the cardamom, fig, black tea and iris are blended beautifully together t…"
- ★5/5 — Spring, Fall — Office, Date — "Dry woods and fig, powdery iris and sweet tonka. Class in a bottle and one of the best Iris fragrances out there."
- ★5/5 — Fall — "This is my rainy day scent. It is absolutely unisex and I see how people say it has a comforting quality. Despite that I always find it a bit cool and distant. In the best sense possible. It is an adult fragrance. It has an underlying melancholy to it, that I love but it is not a good mood scent. For me it has more Weltschmerz vibes. When encountering others it might confuse them with „hug me, no…"
- ★5/5 — Fall, Winter — "Gris Charnel feels like a luxurious wool scarf in a cold wind. It is spicy, figgy but the most prominent note I get is the sandalwood base. Though it remains, spicy, it develops into quite the lactonic wear.
I wouldn’t wear this in the early beginnings of fall, where the sun still shines, because if you’re sensitive to fragrance, you might become nauseous. It shines best in the cold, really crisp…"
- ★5/5 — Fall, Winter — "Intriguing combination. I enjoy the cardamom in here, it's slightly spicy. Overall Gris Charnel is a perfect fragrance for fall. And the juice colour matches the vibe perfectly!"
- ★3/5 — Spring, Summer — Casual, Office — "I wish I liked it more. I only get iris and fig. I don’t smell tea or woods. The Extrate is a bit better in longevity and silage. This really reminds me of Prada L’ Homme, which IMO smells better. The temperature outside is in the upper 80’s, maybe I should give it another try when the weather gets cold."
- ★2/5 — "Gris Charnel from BDK Parfums is a scent that I find confusing and disappointing. Mostly, I think I am disappointed in myself, for not having read the perfumer’s inspiration for the fragrance. Some dribble about two tourists whose glances cross paths, they dance until dawn and then slip away for an intimate encounter. Yawn. I got bored and checked out several times just now while trying to sum tha…"
