Mimeomai opens with peach and citrus, then quickly turns warmer and more textured, with cardamom, cumin, cinnamon and neroli over a woody, musky amber base. It reads richer than a bright floral. The dry-down looks built around cedar, cashmere wood, labdanum and soft leather, so this may suit someone who likes fruity florals with spice, depth and a slightly powdery finish rather. Show less

La Fumée Alexandrie by Miller Harris opens with a sharp burst of cumin and bitter mandarin, quickly softened by a watery litchi note. It is a dry, woody rose that feels more like ancient parchment than a fresh garden bloom. As it settles on skin, a cold incense note emerges, wrapped in cinnamon and the smoky warmth of birch. It is an ideal autumn companion, perfect for chilly evenings spent in cozy knitwear. This scent suits collectors who appreciate dry, spicy rose compositions. It is not a safe blind buy, so starting with a sample is highly recommended. Show less

Mila Vanilla opens with a sharp burst of bergamot and cardamom before settling into dense birch smoke and raw leather.

Pnoi opens with a sharp burst of Calabrian bergamot, bitter petitgrain, and wet violet leaves. As the top notes settle, the heart turns into a powdery floral texture driven by Tuscan orris butter, sweet mimosa, and indolic jasmine. The dry down drops into dark leather, birch tar smoke, beeswax, and castoreum. Created by Greek perfumer Angelos Balamis in a 26 percent concentration, this extraits-level blend moves slowly on skin. It suits chilly autumn afternoons and damp spring evenings when heavy leather and green foliage can breathe without stifling the room. Show less

Tiziana Terenzi Struo starts with a sharp blast of Calabrian bergamot and bitter Sicilian mandarin, cut through by the metallic dust of saffron. It does not stay bright for long. Within minutes, the citrus burns off to reveal a heavy, smokier core of Cambodian oud and dry cedar wood. This is a dry, textured scent that feels best suited for cold autumn nights when you want something that clings to a heavy wool coat. It is not a crowd-pleaser, but rather a demanding option for collectors who appreciate dry woods and leather over sweet compositions. Show less
