Megaflower by @hermetica Perfumer: TBC A creamy interpretation of neroli, fresh and “powdery” contrasted on backdrop of clean woody vetiver.

Garage (Olfactory Library) by @commesdesgarconsparfum Perfumer: Marie-Aude Couture-Bluche Leather, rubber, leather, rubber. It’s an addictive dirty and synthetic scent that smells of garage and a bondage dungeon all at once. Reminds me of: PVC and leather #commedesgarcons #garage #antoinemaisondeau #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose (at DOVER STREET MARKET SINGAPORE) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4mzl-VB4PJ/?igshid=1ilma27l4fbti

Sundazed by @officialbyredo Perfumer: TBC Juicy mandarins and soft neroli, wrapped in layers of cotton candy. A sunny citrus scent of joy and nostalgia.

Eau De Memo by @memo Perfumer: Alienor Massenet How peculiar! Green citrus zing on a background of new leather bags. Refreshing, luxurious and sensual. Delightfully unique. #memo #eaudememo #alienormassenet #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose (at escentials) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4aALzEB36v/?igshid=iom248besoj4

Ganymede by @marcantoinebarrios Perfumer: Quentin Bisch The first thing that comes to mind is: an “airy suede”. The scent exudes a mineral/metallic kind of freshness which I presume to be saffron, nicely rounded by hay-like floral facets of immortelle. A deceptively simple composition, that relies on finding the perfect balance to give the illusion that is leather in space. Bravo to one of the industry’s best olfactive magicians @quentinbischperfumer Reminds me of: a new car smell, but not quite. #marcantoinebarrois #ganymede #quentinbisch #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose https://www.instagram.com/p/B4XS6lOBbcE/?igshid=1my0u9pcq656m

Wicked Love by @maisonmargielafragrances Perfumer: Amandine Clerc-Marie Spicy green jalapeños and rose petals are the dominant accords in this unique scent. Sweet Egyptian jasmine and musk softens the scent around the edges, a depth of focus on the idea’s atypical playfulness. This is a scent for anyone who is looking for unusual rosy scent.

Arabian Wood by @tomford Perfumer: Rodrigo Flores-Roux Arabian Wood is an atypical Middle East scent. It is not dark, and there are no dominant spices to speak of. Instead it is a clear chypre, it is see through much like glass. The subtle touch of ylang gives a clean impression. The scent reminisce of skin, and it leans cosmetic - somehow it reminds me of compact powder. My favourite thing about this scent is that it makes me feel that I am wrapped in a warm luxurious cashmere scarf. Reminds me of: make up (compact powder) #tomford #arabianwood #rodrigofloresroux #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose https://www.instagram.com/p/B4NBdMxBQzn/?igshid=tbmw5c683tcj

L’Heure Defendue VII by @cartier Perfumer: Mathilde Laurent Pure dark chocolate infused with patchouli dusted in orris powder, and orange flower as garnish. A earthy cocooning gourmand scent that makes my tummy rumble and gives me butterflies in the stomach.

Silver by @amouageofficial Perfumer: Evelyne Boulanger A powerful woody plum opening precedes the evolution into a clean soapy orange blossom and jasmine mix, with a subtle marine touch. An elegant fragrance that’s versatile and can be used in warmer climates as as much as cooler ones.

Wild Thistle - Burberry Bespoke by @burberry Perfumer: Francis Kurkdjian An exact replica of being at the florist’s. Imagine being the smell of being surrounded by cut stems, and a melange of fresh flower petals, roses, jasmine, etc. This is it. Simply sublime. My favourite of the range. Reminds me of: a flower shop. P.s. I did not realise that Burberry’s Bespoke Collection comes in different fragrance dosages (2% to 49%) with respective prices to match. For instance, Wild Thistle comes in 2% and 10%, with 10% being the strongest scent and longest lasting. The price difference between these two is a staggering $100. #burberry #wildthistle #franciskurkdjian #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #thehonestnose (at Takashimaya Shopping Centre) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4FRaTxhswv/?igshid=1kjwnk58x8tcb

Sunny Side Up by @juliettehasagun Perfumer: Romano Ricci Creamy sandalwood and coconut milk on a subtle backdrop of jasmine, vanilla silk and warm orris butter. I like this. It’s a clean and non intrusive scent for everyday wear. Wear this if you tired of Santal 33, or if you want a different kind of sandalwood scent. Reminds me of: sun’s up lounging inside cabanas at the beach, sea breeze blowing. #juliettehasagun #sunnysideup #romanoricci #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #thehonestnose (at Amaris Beauty Singapore) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4AHnfShAek/?igshid=3iv2e9f0melj

Multilotus by @hermeticaofficial Perfumer: Alienor Massenet Osmanthus and jasmine tea with a touch of peach and bergamot zest, suspended within an ozonic bubble. A unique one of a kind olfactive structure. Reminds me of: osmanthus and jasmine tea in dry form. P.s. Did you know that Hermetica’a perfumes are alcohol-free? I didn’t realised this until I physically discovered the brand at @escentialssg . I wonder what might be the delivery system then for the fragrance oil molecules. Is it just water? Another brand that does something similar is Buly @officine_universelle_buly .

Blue Santal by @commesdesgarconsparfum Perfumer: Antoine Maisondeau One word: unusual. A blend of salty 🧂sandalwood and pencil ✏️ shavings (cedarwood) with an uplifting green facet which I presume to be pine 🌲 and juniper berries. Try this if you like something light, fresh and woody - but most importantly unique. Reminds me of: Salty preserved plums. #commedesgarcons #bluesantal #antoinemaisondeau #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose #cdg (at escentials) https://www.instagram.com/p/B37BUmOhN_6/?igshid=c7q5rfdikd7f

Marfa by @memo.paris Perfumer: Alienor Massenet A tuberose dominant medley of white florals on a creamy balsamic backdrop of vanilla and sandalwood. The combination results in a warm vanillic musky cocoon, suited for fall and night wear. Try this if you like: white florals and woody gourmands with a creamy vanilla drydown. Or if you want something other than #GucciBloom. #memo #marfa #alienormassenet #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #ig_perfume #ig_parfum #sotd #scentoftheday #luxury #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose https://www.instagram.com/p/B311MJ-h7jQ/?igshid=9od31oazymvm

Winter’s Spring by @gucci Perfumer: Alberto Morillas @morillas.alberto My favourite scent within the collection. A singular botanical accord of “powdery” mimosa with green cucumber facets, contrasted on a veil of pepper. A paradoxical scent that belongs at once to winter and spring. Wear this on sweltering summers and to snuggle up with on cool winter nights. Smells like: sweet melon-y cucumber water. Try this if you like: light subtle mimosa scents, and having the best of both worlds of cologne and eau de parfum. #gucci #wintersspring #albertomorillas #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #TheHonestNose #guccialchemistgarden #gucciperfume #gucciparfum https://www.instagram.com/p/B3wrPS6BQLr/?igshid=g0dumabcjca

Slow Dance by @officialbyredo Perfumer: Jerome Epinette An 80s rock ballad that starts off with riffs of warm resinous plums, accented by a leathery bridge, and concludes with a deep rich boozy vanilla. Try this if you like: Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford P.s. By the way I am currently obsessed with Byredo. Can’t wait to go back and sample their entire range. #byredo #slowdance #jeromeepinette #fragrance #fragrances #perfume #perfumes #parfum #PerfumeReviews #PerfumeReview #nicheperfume #nicheperfumes #scent #scents #fragrancelovers #parfume #scentoftheday #perfumecollection #香水 #香味 #perfumeaddict #fragrancearmy #sotd #fragfam #scentoftheday #perfumelovers #thehonestnose (at escentials) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3rhKW4hZmS/?igshid=1fzfp2g3sehj1
