I gave Gria Charnel and I love it for a cozy, sophisticated scent. I like the regular better than extract. Also Serge luten 5’o clock gingerbre has a similar vibe with less strong of a tea note to my nose.

I think you can’t really go wrong with either of them. But i find them a bit “simple” for lack of a better word. Yes, they are good, but in my opinion don’t really stand out. (But that doesn’t matter if that’s not what you’re going for.)

If you want something that really stands out a bit (maybe something that is fantastiscly overlooked?) I can make some suggestions:

• the freshy/clean fragrance that has a good sillage and lasts long: TORINO22, it’s a fresh eucalyptus, with spices and woods that give it a good base and longevity. it’s clean and sophisticated and not something you smell everyday. It works in any occasion and every place.
• The vanilla: go for a Black Phantom by Killian, a nice vanilla meets coffee with great longevity and sillage, and not the most mainstream vanille meets amber. have fun with your search!
