I remember smelling Memoirs of a Trespasser for the first time in June of 2020 and I was immediately blown away. Its warm cozy smoke immediately wrapped itself around me and I was under its spell. It had a sweetness that was beguiling but it was on the outside edge of the smoke , a bit of spice like baking far away. It’s like sitting at a campfire, chatting with your friends, watching the kids roast marshmallows, waiting to go inside and get fully warm again before the chill hits your bones. How could you not like it? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ambery woods dressed up with smoke, vanilla, a sprinkle of cinnamon, a fleeting wisp of zingy zest, gone but buoying the heavy notes. Very long-lasting and easy to wear, thanks to a touch of sweetness. ⠀⠀��⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you like Replica By the Fire but not the marshmallow, this might be more your thing. If you like Silky Woods but you wish it was smokier and outdoorsy, maybe you see yourself as a trespasser in this realm, making your way back to where you really belong, then you would like this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Does it smell like the memories of a trespasser? It smells like the setting of The Sun Also Rises. Smoky, boozy, woody... disillusioned and disheartened. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @imaginaryauthors ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #memoirsofatresspasser #invisibleauthors #nicheperfume #perfumeblog #scentoftheday #perfumelover #nichefragrance #perfumecollection #indieperfume (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CodYkAXPybD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💚 These handmade indie perfumes from @inklingscents all smell soooo good and unlike any perfumes I've ever tried! Some of these scents in this giftset are even harvested from their onsite organic garden. So far out of the 6 scents in this collection my favorite is the poppy fields! The perfect scent collection for fall and each order comes with a thoughtful handwritten note and two free samples!

💚 I love how these scents are made with 100% fragrance isolates and pure essential oils making them perfect for people with allergies and sensitivities. ​Plus, they're cruelty free, vegan and contain no phthalates, paraben or fillers. I also love the feel of the silky texture and how these scents last a super long time because they're alcohol free and don't evaporate quickly. I can see why they've been highlighted in Women's Health, Buzzfeed, FabFitFun, Bridal Guide, Organic Authority, InStyle and more! There are currently 23 scents to choose from for women, men and unisex.To learn more about these pure essential and perfume oils and find your favorite fall scents visit inklingscents.com

Alkemia Sample Set Review - Curious Oddities

I originally posted this on reddit awhile back but I’m reposting it here because I’m trying to find mutuals and other blogs to follow on here surrounding the indie perfume community :^) So without further ado, here’s my first impression reviews of Alkemia’s Curious Oddities Sample Set. 

Memoriam: "Heirloom roses, memories wrapped in woodsmoke, a scattering of ashes" I wanted to like this so much, but honestly right now it's just this awful, acrid smell like something burning that reminds me of barbeque. I catch whiffs of rose and as it dries down it isn't as intense, but even then, I don't think it's something I'll wear. I might let it rest longer and give it a second chance someday. 3/10

Deus ex Machina: "fire hardened steel, rusted iron, warm motor oil, wet cement, burnt copper wires, and grey amber" Okay, I had no idea what to expect going into this one but I am pleasantly suprised! I'm definitely getting metallic and concrete, and what I'm assuming is the grey amber is tying all together very nicely. This one brings to mind an image of a steampunk laboratory for me. Overall it seems very wearable, and I'll definitely at least use up the sample. 8/10

St. Louis Cemetery: "Spanish Moss, crumbling stone, old cement, red clay brick, and graveyard dirt" In the bottle, this is QUITE chemical smelling, guessing that's the concrete. On the skin the moss takes over and gives it a very green scent with that chemical bite lingering in the background. As it dries it begins to have a much more manageable scent with the dirt starting to come through. Closing my eyes and smelling it I can imagine walking through a cemetery after a rain storm, it captures the smell of wet moss and stone and dirt quite well. It's almost uncanny. Not sure how often I'll wear this but it's so damn unique and well blended that it's a solid 7.5/10 in my book.

Industrial sabotage: "burnt wires, twisted melted steel, shattered machinery, and gunpowder" Another one that I'm not entirely sure what to expect at first. And once again, WOW oh my god. Smelling it in the bottle it's such a surprisingly addicting metallic scent. As it dries down it doesn't change all too much but the gunpowder becomes more prominent as well. I don't know how to describe it in a way that does it justice. Imagine being in a chemistry lab, or outside at a gas station, or in a factory, and there's those scents wafting around that are unmistakably manmade and industrial in nature but also a bit intoxicating in a way that makes you want to keep inhaling. Dare I say... 10/10? I might have to full size this one.

Center of the universe: "Welded metal, gunpowder, burnt almond cookies, ozone, raspberries, rum" Such an odd combination of notes! But somehow works pretty well? I don't know if I really like it but it's definitely fine to smell. I almost feel like I get a whiff of a different note every time I smell this, alternating between those metal and gunpowder notes and those sweet foodie ones. Interestingly it sort of makes me think of being in a bakery or kitchen that's been freshly cleaned with chemicals, surrounded by all the metal utensils and food ingredients. A solid 5/10, I like it but not enough to FS and wouldn't be my go to sample choice either. Also it seems to start smelling like fruit scented cleaning products as it sits longer on my skin.

Supernatural: "Iso-E, ambrox, cruelty free tonkin musk, and intricate spirals of aroma molecules" So I have no experience with any of these notes so I cannot speak to if it smells like one would expect, but I can say that whatever it is, it's realllllly nice. I can't place it at all, and from what I've read about iso-e I guess it's pretty individual skin dependent anyways. I can't decide if this smells like something I've smelled in chemistry class before or at a spice shop or in the woods. There's definitely something sweet about it but not in a food way like with center of the universe. I think it reminds me of pine trees or maybe vanilla. Argh I just wish I could place the smell! I'll go with a 8/10 because it doesn't absolutely knock my socks off but it is incredibly intriguing and I'll probably use up the sample.

Paintbox Soapworks 2021 Summer Collection

Paintbox Soapworks recently released some new summery delights as well as some oldies but goodies! As usual I snagged a slew of soaps to use around the house and am delighted to have some fun seasonal smells! Pick-a-Duck is a returning favorite of mine, and Yacht Rock is a new and delightful treat!

Osage Orange

Scent description: A weird, green blend of sour orange, crushed sage, sticky sap, woody lavender & oakmoss

This is a gorgeous citrus botanical blend that is refreshing and clean. The oakmoss grounds the blend and smells green and alive, with fluffy herbal lavender and fresh green sage weaving in and out with a hint of bright, smooth citrus.

Journey in Satchidananda

Scent description:  The deep drone of sandalwood, patchouli, & champaca sprinkled with rose & neroli waters & clarifying geranium leaf

This scent is both heady and clean, familiar (nag champa-esque) and unique. It’s the love child of a metaphysical shop and a garden. Needless to say, I’m in love. It’s expertly blended--I get equal parts smooth sandalwood, heady champaca, refreshing rose and orange blossom water, and crisp, clean geranium leaf. A beautifully scented soap!

Pick-a-Duck

Scent description:  Riotously sweet carnival treats of sticky strawberry taffy, hot sugared donuts, Cracker Jack, & a swirl of smoke from darkened tents

This is a scent that I did not expect to love so much. It sounds like a sugar bomb--and there is for sure a lot of sweet, fried, carnival dough like funnel cakes, and handfuls of caramel popcorn--but it’s all kept in check by the puff of mellow incense and also by the twist of creamy, sticky, pink strawberry. This is perhaps my favorite scent from the whole collection. I’ve got a real thing for sweet treats + incense, and also this scent is just so very happy! It’s carefree and upbeat, like children at a carnival, and I can feel the knots in my stomach ease as I smell it.

Yacht Rock

Scent description: Sun-bleached driftwood, warm ocean breezes, & sunset-hued tropical drinks

I'm not sure what wizardry makes this smell like being on a fancy boat in the 80s, but this absolutely works. What a fun beachy blend! Kinda want to drink it, kinda want to wash with it. This does smell like ocean breezes with florals, daiquiris, and suntan lotion on the wind. Love it.

Secrets of the Sun

Scent description: Rich Indonesian patchouli, musky honey, wild honeysuckle, gardenia, sun-warmed skin

This is sticky and rich and warm and wonderful. Golden, thick honey coating waxy gardenia petals and smooth, rooty patchouli. This would make for a gorgeous and flirty summer perfume blend.

Red Cow

Scent description: Rooty, spicy apothecary cola poured over luscious home made vanilla ice cream with a bright squirt of cherry syrup

Frothy float made with artisanal root beer a la Virgil's brand. Sometimes this smells very much like root beer, and at other times it smells more like cola. In any case, it's a delightful and fun summer treat! After smelling this one I had to hop in the car to grab a root beer float from an old local drive-in joint.

Sundew

Scent description: A soporific, sun-dappled blend of crushed pineapple, honeyed chamomile, hops, swamp milkweed & damp grass

This is like drinking a pineapple-based cocktail on the porch in the middle of summer. The pineapple note is gorgeous--rich and tangy, just like the real thing. Sundew is both fruity and clean, and surprisingly nostalgic. Another beautiful, inspired blend!

Krampus - A warm aroma of peppermint, black pepper and cinnamon, think candy cane with a spicy twist. Lebkuchen Latte- The Lebkuchens that inspired this scent are honey-sweet cakes originating in Germany. Infused with hints of ginger and vanilla with freshly- ground coffee bean. Ciliegia Amaretti - A sweet Italian Christmas classic, concentrated cherry extract with notes of biscuit, almond and marzipan. Enjoy the fragrances as they unravel throughout the day, with each note of the perfume slowly emerging, one after another!

I've smelled attars before, but not like these. On family trips to India, my mom would always buy attars, so oil-based perfumes made in traditional ways. She loves florals and stuck to soliflores - rose and jasmine being her favourites. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The History of Attar collection from @areejledore are perfumes based on traditional attars. I haven't had the chance to wear them on skin, but they are different than what I was expecting, and from what I've experienced in the past. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The perfumes are: Le Mitti, Beauty and the Beast, Gul Hina, Ambre de Coco, Malik al Motia, Al Majmua, Mysore Incenza. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Having a basic knowledge of some of the languages spoken in India meant that this wasn't a blind smelling, and I've read lots about these already. I think what's interesting about these is that they're all very strong, and they don't smell like any perfume that I'm used too - except for Al Majmua which has a traditional chypre structure so it reminds me of a bombastic 80's perfume. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have you smelled these, or do you have a favourite? Tell me which one I should start with. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Gifted by the brand. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #areejledore #attars #attar #attarcollection #perfumesamples #perfumeblog #scentoftheday #perfumebloggers #edp #perfumelover #nicheperfume #indieperfume https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn5PC1GypvU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
