Pipe Bomb

Like a couple of the commenters on here: I am flabbergasted at the the hate that this scent gets. This is one of the craziest accords for me as it forms this mineral like smell that is truly addicting. It smells like a rock with a faint hint of the sea. It’s like you just cracked a lava rock that’s been hit by the ocean in Hawaii and took a big whiff of strictly that. Then as it dries down it gains this metallic essence that’s not over powering at all. It provides this nice balance of this mineral, metal, and slightly salty marine. It’s a fragrance that can be worn at any time, and should, but works exceptionally well in the summer heat. This guy projects hard off my skin. Especially when I wore a bit of the sample I got out on a hot day. It also lasts a fair amount of time if ~5-6 hours before you need to re apply, but the heat might've shortened this as it does most fragrances. Even though the longevity was short, I would expect that of any ethereal/mineral fragrance like this that has a intense version. Overall this is a great fragrance for pretty much any situation, no matter who you are. I personally thing Mizuchi is better, but this one projects better on me and will be more accessible in the long run (if blackbird DOES actually cancel the smell after 100 bottles)

This is probably my favorite perfume ever and my classic go to scent/signature. I can't believe some of the reviews, so wanted to leave my overwhelmingly positive one to balance them out. This perfume is subtle and mixes very well with your own scent - or at least with mine. It is spicy, metallic, intriguing, and comforting. I want to keep smelling it over and over again and I never get tired of it. The smell is not loud/in your face, but it is definitely there and has more lasting power than other reviews let on. I can smell pipe bomb on my clothes days after spraying it. I would describe this as a skin scent that is like 'you, but better' with an animalic quality that I don't see listed in the notes. I get tons of compliments on it and it is one of my holy grail perfumes!

Very pleasant but it seems fleeting. I'm looking forward to a more in depth test. *Update* Bought a full bottle. It develops after about 20 minutes. Then stays pretty present. Sweet & clean at the same time. It seems akin to a molecular type fragrance.. I think it's simply stunning. *Another Update* Wth was I thinking this is bleach water. *Update part 3* It's beautiful again. I am 💯 confident this will always smell differently depending on hormones and chemistry. One thing is for certain and remains constant - the cap and atomizer are junk. It's expensive juice, Blackbird should be giving us better quality here.

I'm the owner and perfumer at Blackbird. Pipe Bomb is not Iso E Super and therefore not like Molecule 1. I love reading these comments. The perfume is supposed to smell very light and almost like nothing. It's for people who do not like normal perfume and want something different. Personally, it does not work on my skin and I can't smell it on anyone, but I have too many friends who smell it on people in public and will ask the person to confirm that it is truly Pipe Bomb they are smelling. I hope this additional information is helpful. -Nicole

I adore this scent and was completely astounded by the negative reviews I saw here. I get a lot of compliments on the scent and I myself found out about it because I complimented a woman passing me by! It's a great non-floral option and not overbearing! Pairs well with your favourite casino but also just anywhere.
