Excentrique Moi

I totally agree with the official discription of this scent. I'm pretty eccentric so we were made for each other lol The opening is intense and what a olfactory rollercoaster ride. I love that the tea, spice, pepper and hibiscus are strong. Patch is pretty low key on me for some strange reason. There is not a great amount of fruity sweetness either but Im not complaining. The notes play off each other perfectly. I think I've found my next perfect tea scent alongside Masque Russian Tea although they are not at all similar. This potent scent has to be reserved for cool temp nightwear.

The opening is very peppery, zingy, herbal, earthy fresh. I wouldn't say this is warm at all it's a lot more almost citrusy. The description actually does say it has lemon despite not seeing on the notes, I think it's pretty prominent. I think this is more a warm-weather fragrance, I don't really get the plum or the fruits or warmth apart from the clove which here is more herbal. Very nice though smells elegant very well blended. Drydown is very clove and wood heavy so changes quite a bit. Hence what they say in the description! Overall very interesting, high quality. I have 100+ niche samples for swap within Europe - updated spreadsheet of samples on my profile, get in touch!

Smart casual for the night, but I could see this being pulled off during the day, maybe in a suit, if you wear suits, I don't, but anyway, it is alert/present, sophisticated enough to pull off, I would hazard. The opening is amazeballs, and it drys down into a dry, woody, mature fruity, tea-y clean scent, with just enough edge to provoke curiousity.

I get Le Nuit de L’Homme Le Parfum vibes of this. They don’t smell that similar, but it’s the kind of scent profile the same. Not as mass appealing either but it’s a very well done fragrance.

Moi surprised me most from the sample set. Signature Wild is my favorite from the house, but this is becoming a close 2nd. It nails what it’s trying to achieve. Incredible development from start to finish. I normally don’t layer, but this over the drydown of Straight to Heaven is pretty awesome.
