scent of the day
very unique powdery scent! it smells like iris body powder but the cinnamon and the vanilla gives it a slightly toasted almond like note to it.
i’ve never smelled anything like that and no surprise it’s inspired by david bowie music.
it’s perfect when you want to feel cozy and clean 🧼🧺
More Justbox and a long awaited (by me) return:
Cheeky Smile by Jusbox - this has a whole lot of MoLeCuLeS in the pyramid, but sure does smell like amber and wood - more wood at the start more sweet amber at the end. At the very end it almost gives some bodily odour - not too strong though. It's pretty pleasant, but I wouldn't say it's something awfully special.
Green Bubble by Jusbox - full disclosure - I have no clue what cannabis smells like - but this fragrance is indeed green and woody - more green at the start, more woody and labdanum (even though not many people vote for it as being noticeable, maybe I have a sensitivity for it...) at the middle and somewhat the same but sweeter at the very bottom (I'd presume it's amber and the sweeter hypostasis of patchouli). A very nice thing.
14Hour Dream by Jusbox - actually, about sweet hypostasis of patchouli - here it is with quite a lot of very pleasant vanilla - there are some spices, but they are definitely overshadowed by it. A the bottom there's some bitterness coming out, adding some depth to it, but I'm not sure what could it be - maybe guaiac wood.
Black Powder by Jusbox - this one is mostly tobacco with some promise of suede/leather. The fruits aren't very noticeable but they (and I'm pretty sure the pepper too) are giving it a lot of freshness in the background. An interesting thing.
Feather Supreme by Jusbox - a surprising occurrence - I actually hear the top of the pyramid very well - the beginning is very fruity and there's definitely apple juice in it - then tuberose comes out and it's pretty fresh but not overtly green or sweet. Really enjoyed that one, maybe didn't wait enough for the base to come out though.
Night Flow by Jusbox - so this one is supposed to be raspberry leather, but for me it's mostly just leather. Pretty soft leather and there's definitely some sweetness to it but I wouldn't guess raspberry if I didn't already know that. I might be imagining some saffron there though, surprisingly.
Megamare by Orto Parisi - finally worn this sea monster on my own skin and I still don't get it. Where's the giant rotten squid washed up on the beach a lot of people are complaining about? This is mostly very salty sea wood dried out on the cold northern shore and some slight slight sweetness at the end which is almost reminiscent of Seminalis. And speaking of Seminalis, I'm getting a feeling all Orto Parisi perfumes have crazy longevity - half the day + thought the shower + till the morning. Anyway, loved it, would very much like to get a decant at some point.

Visionary Eye di Jusbox Perfumes la mia recensione
3 cose che rendono irresistibile, al mio naso e occhi, un profumo. Un profumiere che amo, una delle mie materie prime preferite in profumeria, e uno story telling accattivante. Nel caso di Visionary Eye di Jusbox Perfumes il profumiere è il grande e talentuoso Dominique Ropion, e l’ingrediente star della creazione è una delle note che amo di più in profumeria. Visionary Eye si ispira…

Green Bubble (eau de parfum) Jusbox Nose: Julien Rasquinet
Playlist
Woody amber
An earthly paradise, ruled by the original sin: Love. Mankind, folk culture and every day slow living create Jamaica and are Jamaica’s creation at the same time. Jamaica: the land of Springs. In this Eden, BPM becomes rarefied and the bass’ line lay down the law to guitar. Pure ideals are so powerful to go beyond the borders of this isle. Reggae descends on earth: one music and one culture.
Reggae is the doctrine of Jamaica’s kingdom; in its immaculate religiousness, essence and beauty become faith. In the Green Bubble fragrance, the rhythm is composed by the serenity of a shining sun, the Jamaican people’s strength and creativity, and the vegetation, which reigns undisputed in this land of wood and water. A flawless oasis where the euphoria rising from vegetation’s and smoky woods’ scent meets the spirituality of incense. Julien Rasquinet gives shape to Eden, creating a perfect balance between woody accords with sharp notes of absinthe and aromatic hints of saffron and Indian hemp. Sensory ecstasy.
Top notes: Grapefruit, Marijuana, Absinthe Heart notes: Saffron, Honey, Cedarwood Base notes: Labdanum, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Dry amber
Use Abuse (eau de parfum) Jusbox Nose: Antoine Lie
Playlist
Floral amber
A huge, ecstatic crowd is overwhelmed by an unstoppable energy. Bold costumes and unmistakable vibrations are the expression of a powerful personality that is able to assert and show itself in all its authenticity. Singin’ we will we will rock you!
As overwhelming as Queen’s legendary performances and as magnetic as its front man, Freddie Mercury’s personality, Use Abuse is a vibrant and explosive fragrance that evokes all of the excitement and enthusiasm of the 80s. The unique musky-floral accord, created by master perfumer Antoine Lie, is a tuberose overdose played together with sandal, jasmine sambac and musk, expressing the exuberant nature of a generation who was not able to resist the lure of excess and eccentricity.
Top notes: Tuberose, Mandarin, Incense Heart notes: Sambac jasmine, Peony, Sandalwood Base notes: Opoponax, Musk
Siren & Sailors (eau de parfum) Jusbox Nose: Julien Rasquinet

Woody amber
A tiny club in Camden Town. Amy Winehouse’s sweet and husky voice enchants even the hardest souls, unveiling the fragility, the strength and the contradictions of a woman and her neighborhood.
Siren & Sailors’ warm and sensual notes go straight to the heart, like the melody of a mermaid. Powerful and contrasting nuances resound like Amy Winehouse’s husky voice among Camden Town canals. Rose Essential LMR and Osmanthus notes convey her most innocent and frivolous side, while the intense heart of Rum absolute and Whiskey accord evoke her strong vocality and her tendency toward unruliness. The sensual Vanilla and Musk dry-downlingersin our memory, like the greatness of a woman who, showing herself as audacious - and fragile at the same time- left a permanent mark on music history. An enchanting composition from master perfumer Julien Rasquinet that pays homage to a sublime voice, to a rebellious soul and to the eccentric and contradictory spirit of the Camden Town neighborhood in London.
Top notes: Bergamot, Peach, Osmanthus Heart notes: Rose, Rum, Whiskey Base notes: Patchouli, Vanilla, Suede, Musk
Spring Dance (eau de parfum) Jusbox Nose: Dominique Ropion
Soft floral
An interweaving of violins that chase one another in an allegro of pure melodies, unfurling with the awakening of Nature. The beauty of life blossoming in the joyful song of birds, in the waters of streams gurgling with renewed vigour. It is spring.
Spring Dance is an olfactory concert that celebrates life as an expression of beauty and power, in the moment of its inception. Spring Dance is an emotional composition in which the top notes of grapefruit and LMR Tunisian rosemary open to an ensemble of LMR jasmine sambac absolute and honeysuckle, extolling the blossoming of flowers that saturate the air with a fragrance that is both powerful and gentle at its heart. The elegant rhythms of dry amber and musk are the base notes in an olfactory harmony in which wellbeing and balance are the libretto of an extraordinary opera. Spring Dance is an olfactory counterpoint that interweaves the canon of perfumery art with a contemporary and innovative technique. The allegro of the top notes, which are clean, fresh, soft and discreet, is inserted in a structured and very persistent olfactory intrigue.
Top notes: Grapefruit, Rosemary Heart notes: Honeysuckle, Sambac jasmine Base notes: Dry amber, Musks
