This Is Not A Blue Bottle by Histoires de Parfums is a Oriental fragrance for women and men. This Is Not A Blue Bottle was launched in 2015. This Is Not A Blue Bottle was created by Gerald Ghislain and Julien Rasquinet. Top notes are Aldehydes and Orange; middle notes are Honey and Geranium; base notes are Musk, Patchouli and Amber. It opens with Aldehydes, Orange. The heart moves into Honey, Geranium. In the dry-down, Musk, Patchouli give it its base. From the way people describe wearing it, this comes across best as very unique and avant-garde scent; a modern designer profile that feels easy to like; high sillage and longevity. The trade-off is that it may feel polarizing; defies typical blue expectations; more synthetic in the opening than some buyers may want; a herbal bitterness that may read medicinal to some wearers depending on taste and setting. Taken together, the feedback points to a scent that feels easy to understand on first wear, but still depends heavily on whether the greener, sweeter, or sharper nuances fit your preferences.

Colosseum opens with a bright aldehydic sparkle and a juicy orange lift, then settles into a sweeter heart where honey softens the sharpness and geranium adds a clean floral edge. Warm amber, musk, and patchouli give it a smooth finish. It reads as a polished unisex amber with a fresh, soapy sheen rather than a heavy oriental style. If you like honeyed.

13BC is an aromatic fougere built around a bright, soapy aldehydic lift, then a green herbal snap of coriander and clary sage. It settles into earthy patchouli and vetiver with a warm cinnamon hum, before turning sweeter and more rugged, with honeyed leather, musk, and oakmoss. If you like classic barbershop freshness with a modern sweet-leather base, this is one to sample.

Friendship Garden opens with a crisp, soapy burst of aldehydes and spicy carnation, instantly channeling a mid-century dressing table. As the fragrance warms on skin, it softens into a powdery bouquet of ylang-ylang and Bulgarian rose, grounded by a warm sandalwood and amber base. This classic floral aldehyde suits spring mornings, casual daytime wear, or moments of quiet nostalgia. We recommend sampling this historic formulation to see how its powdery, clean florals behave on your skin before committing to a full vintage bottle.

Severny Tsvet by Art Deco Perfumes opens with a crisp burst of aldehydes and crushed green leaves that feel like a cold northern morning. As the top notes quiet down, powdery iris and jasmine emerge alongside a distinct touch of geranium, balancing floral sweetness with a cool, starchy dryness. The base shifts into darker territory, layering cedar, agarwood, labdanum, and rich vanilla under the lingering floral cloud. It suits cool spring days, tailored coats, and quiet afternoons when you want an artistic floral woody scent with vintage structure.
