Listen. If you like this bottle and you’re okay with overpaying for essentially a fancy bottle, that’s your prerogative. However, this is identical to generic Iso E super, which you can get anywhere (it’s on Amazon) and it is IDENTICAL for a fraction of the price. Don’t waste your money on marketing, please. I cannot emphasize how identical it is, genuinely. Get a bottle for $30 instead of $160 and pair it with a nice EDT you want to last longer.
On its own, it will smell different on everyone, but usually slightly musky and clean. On me, it just smells like a lovely woody clean smell. It’s great! Just not worth $160.
Absolutely stunning if you like smelling like root beer, which I personally adore. There’s a lovely, subtle almost licorice note that is just so beautiful with the vanilla base. I adore this version of the poison line!
I ordered a tiny sample just to see what the big deal was about this scent. I didn’t expect to like it and I definitely do not, but for very different reasons than most people in the reviews.
I think this scent pulls differently depending on skin chemistry more than some others might, so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt, but a lot of the reviews are a little dramatic. I don’t think it smells like genitals of any kind (unfortunately - that probably would’ve been better lol) but instead, on me and on paper, it smells like a sterilized hospital room. When I first smelled it, it genuinely reminded me so much of seeing a relative on their deathbed in the hospital that I teared up. I wouldn’t call this a clean scent, but it smells a bit like a dying person who just got a sponge bath with hospital soap that’s unscented but still has that sort of smell that I can only describe as hospital to it.
I wouldn’t call this offensive, I think it’s probably a great scent for some people who like powdery, aquatic, slightly sour scents, but for me, the scent memory is too strong to even try to wear it for a full wear test to determine longevity. When I scrubbed it off, I could still smell it faintly on my skin, so I imagine it’s quite long lasting.
To be honest, it reminds me of NAP without the powder finish.
This is a beautiful winter fragrance. It’s described as a turkish coffee on their website and I really think they nailed it. I wish there was a more prominent coffee note, but it is spicy and heady and beautiful as is.
It is a beast mode perfume, extremely heavy and extremely long wearing, so beware for the office and casual occasions. It gives my mom a headache, so maybe save for date nights.
It smells exactly like it’s described — cognac on the opening, dries to a warm, woody, cinnamon-vanilla. I don’t get anything else but it’s WAY too overpowering on the cognac for how strong it is. I smelled like I spilled whiskey on myself. I don’t know if it was just my skin chem disagreeing with it, but it’s very much not for me. I really, really wish I liked it more.
