Dirty Heaven

This smells like wilted white flowers... they're sweet but with a distinctly musky dirty skin smell that is sexy. Definitely an almondy-saffron tinge that comes through for the first hour or so, which I surprisingly like (usually I don't like sweet saffrons, just spicier saffrons). Pairs beautifully with any sort of your skin but better scent, and I find that layering with these helps temper the sweetness of the fragrance (think nemat amber or not a perfume). I prefer this in the daytime... there's an airiness that feels strange and sharp at night, maybe because its sweet but not at all spicy. If this fragrance were a painting, it would be an absurdist, slightly uncanny but alluring rendition of heaven. Like a heironymus bosch painting of heaven filled with neroli and jasmine and a wisp of saffron. I feel like a sexy sweet alien that is capable of manipulating humans when I wear this. Definitely a bit doll-plasticky like other people have mentioned about BTSO. This was my signature scent for a while. Was love at first sniff, but is losing its novelty after owning it for about a year.

What does it smell like? Sweet. Egregiously sweet. Sweet, sour (probably some too much of an off-note that lets one think of grapefruit), airy, maximalist. Tonka, vanilla, amber and ambroxan are definitely the main notes, a lil flowery goodness lingers in the background. Who could I see wearing this? With men, either raging flamboyant homosexuals or male manipulators who will throw themselves at you on the opportunity to tell you all about how this perfume leans feminine and fragrances really don't have a sex. With women, a rich auntie who never lost her teenage edge and never tried hard yet naturally succeeded to be popular. And also her daughter. Why shouldn't you buy it? If you have a problem with "synthetic" qualities of a perfume, stay far away from this one and leave all the stock to me please. How would I describe it most abstractly? Bouncy thoughts, screechy makeup, sex with the big light on, loss of impulse control, deceivingly sweet, using too much vanilla extract in a cake batter, cunty mountain air, what your bff's perfume smells like in your head.

Upon the first few minutes it's reminiscent of Angel's Powder, but with a triple shot of tonka + a shot of leathery funk. After that it reminds me of a sweeter PDM Althäir; but with additional leather & animalics, which makes it unique unto itself. The name is befitting! I enjoy it up close on the skin, it makes my eyes roll back in pleasure. As with all BTSOs I've noticed the oil concentration is high, making for a rich, intense, and satisfying fragrance experience. I honestly don't understand why this house doesn't get more love. Everything I've smelled is so much better than department store offerings! Creative but mass appealing, excellent quality. It's expensive, but less expensive than PDM, for example. Maybe it's the marketing and presentation lacking. Otherwise this house is incredible! Especially the Fugazzi collab. These are so niche but not too niche, as to alienate entire demographics 🥹 it's confusing. Editing to add that the review below reading "vanilla gasoline" could not be more accurately succinct! Love that

Dirty Heaven to me is vanilla powdered milk, ylang ylang with a base of toasted tonka bean. This is milky and powdery at the same time, like the sensation of sweet, clean skin. White flowers are listed as a note which *could* be tuberose or maybe even a lactonic hint of tiare flower, but I’m sensing more of a bright and bubbly ylang ylang. The base is caramelized, syrupy and super sweet- smells like praline or burnt brown sugar, with a slightly nutty, almost almondy tonka bean. I think this is quite sweet and innocent, like Heaven, with the “Dirty” aspect being the roasted coumarin and touch of saffron spice. —Hot take— this could easily be a flanker of Good Girl in the shoe bottle. It’s quite crowd-pleasing for a niche scent. Nonetheless, I really like this perfume and am considering buying a larger decant to test drive further.

As soon as I sampled this I fell in love. I bought a full bottle the following week. I am wearing it now as I write this review. I saw some reviewer on YouTube not too impressed as I am about this fragrance. That is why you have to sample and test things out for yourself. We all have different test when it come to fragrances. My girlfriend constantly compliments me on this perfume and I can’t stop sniffing myself. One of my favorites from the line and can’t wait to sample a few others I have on my list to sample. My only issue is the price for a 50ml. $200 is pretty steep for a 50 ml. Also, I wish they came in 100ml size. I’ll pay $200-225 for a 100ml for sure. Other than that it’s great.

If this fragrance was a color it would be purple. I say that because I get a whiff of artificial grape flavoring in the air while wearing this. It smells nice though. Besides that this is an airy warm vanillin, white floral concoction. I really like it. From the white florals I mostly get orange blossom similar to the one in PDM Oriana but it doesn’t go sugary sweet as it does in Oriana. It does smell similar to RM No 5 & Liquid Imaginaires Liquide but this is better and longer lasting than the latter, and RM No 5 goes in a really powdery direction. Out of the three this is my favorite.

Imagine the whiteness of heaven. Well, now make it gloomy, enrich it with flowers at the end of flowering, with a slightly sweet and unexpectedly magnetic scent--you have dirty heaven. A combination of florals and saffron made sensual by ambroxan that makes this fragrance irresistible, alternating moderation with stronger notes, in short it's always there but every now and then it comes out even more overpoweringly. From the first time I smelled it I loved it, and immediately desired it. A temptation to which one cannot say no. "The Temptation of St. Anthony" painted by Salvador Dali.

I used my entire 5ml sample in a hour . This is absolutely love . I went to bed and all throughout the night I got wafts in a cocoon of intoxication. The sample is so strong .This is so addictive and euphoric. I immediately , purchased a full bottle .I’m thinking the other white flowers are tuberose and hawthorn maybe. There has to be at least 6 different white flowers . This is not your typical white floral bomb, they are just supporting characters . The main players are saffron ,vanilla , Tonka , and grey amber /ambroxan .

This is what sexy bad girls smell like--like Renee Rap in the new version of Mean Girls. It's what Britney and Isabel from Bottoms would reach for. What I mean is, it's sweet and comforting with a slight edge. It isn't trying to hard and it doesn't necessarily want you to like it, but it doesn't mind if you do. This is like a grungier, younger (less sophisticated and put together) version of Valaya from Parfums de Marly. For me, this is full bottle worthy.

THIS IS FEMININE...SENSUAL...SEXY. She is not overtly or blatantly putting it out there but she draws you to her. Dirty Heaven brings the sexxy out of me which is not easy so I had to have her. Now she is mine and I am hers and we are conquering the world one head turn at a time. In all seriousness DH is full bottle worthy IMO but definitely worth a sample especially if you need something in your fragrance wardrobe to bring out the vixen in you!

These aren’t usually the notes I’d go for, however I find this fragrance intoxicating. On first spritz I pick up airy saffron, vanilla and white flowers. The dry down is what hooked me: a nutty base from the tonka bean, a gorgeous, clean musk from the ambroxan, and a comforting warmth from the vanilla and amber. Yet somehow this still manages to have a fluffy quality. Imagine a luxury hotel lobby in Paris. Chic without trying too hard.

I got a sample of this perfume and it was love at first sniff for me. Its silky and creamy while also maintaining a warm and slightly sharp edge. Initial spray pulls a little plasticky on me but in a weirdly nonoffensive type of way. Once dried down however this scent truly is heaven. I have gotten SO many compliments when i wear this and it leaves my clothes smelling like this for days! i absolutley NEED a full bottle

I love this so much! So sexy! I can’t stop smelling this on me and would be very dangerous if I smelled it on someone else I don’t know 😅 it does have some resemblance to Babycat and RM No 5 (also 2 of my favorites) but it’s more spicy, more daring and while I see the first two as more feminine leaning this one is unisex right in the middle. I think this is fire on a man as much as on a woman.

i love this scent. it is my fav of all the BTSO fragrances i have tried so far. it is a mix of dossier's ambery saffron and floral marshmallow. it starts off very saffron heavy, but like a powdery saffron. then it dries down into straight up marshmallow. the longevity is super long, but i kept spraying this on myself because i love it so much.

vanilla gasoline, auto erotica, a baddie living in the united states of america, the b2b sound of an engine revving and a breathy orgasm, a gas station popsicle dripping down her freshly done manicure onto the car tire and asphalt while she pumps gas in a mini skirt, her tramp stamp peeking through

opening smells like a light version of pdm althair and the drydown has that babycat/ TF d eau ombre leather smell . gorgeous resinous spicy vainilla, not oversweet nor gourmand. as expect from an Asian brand. currently a very hyped brand, in my local fragrance store it sold it out quickly

Love at first sniff. Ordered a sample that arrived today and within 30 mins I’ve ordered a full bottle. Sweet and seductive and for me a fair bit stronger than dirty milk . Will see how it lasts but to be honest I’m happy to reapply as many times as needed

A beautiful fragrance. Starts off very sweet, sharp and strong on the flowers, almost cherry like. Vut after 3-4 hours the sharpness and the ”cherry-like” smell dissapears and the tonka & vanilla combo take over. One of my favorites fragrances ever.

Super sexy and airy perfume. Has little sharpness in the opening but the mid-dry down is a silk caress on the skin. Better blended than many designer flankers I've seen. Liking this line a lot, this and Drunk Lovers are my faves!

Yes 100000%. My sexy, date night/evening out scent. Just lasts forever, especially on clothes, even smelled it on a shirt after I’d put it through the laundry. That Tonka bean and saffron and amber just make this soooooo sultry.

I'm not sure about the notes listed but after the initial fruity burst, I get a really really delicious smoky and a slightly sweet leathery grape -cherry in the drydown with this one and I'm ADDICTED! FB worthy for me. LOVE!

Very unique and sexy scent! Mostly white floral, mineral and musky to me. It's one of those perfumes that you recognize from a thousand. Perfect for a second date

This fragrance is so well done ! It smells like a slightly burnt caramelized ambery vanilla with a touch of jasmine. Love ! Love ! Love !

An incredibly sexy, sumptuous scent. I pick up a lot of very ripe black cherry. Lasts for an eternity, especially on clothes.

Amber, wood, spicy!! So delicious!❤️ Leather give luxury feeling to the fragrance!

I find this to be sexy AF... I get slightly smoky vanilla leather. 🤤

I had low hopes. A name like Dirty Heaven sets up a contradiction, and contradictions in perfume can go either way—brilliant or unbearable. Powder and spice, warmth and florals, sweet and just a little wrong. But this? Surprisingly seamless! This scent throws a blur of heliotropin and tonka, deep and almondy, marzipan-like sweetness curling around itself, wrapped in vanilla that feels more like pastry than sugar alone. Warm, glowing, plush. The jasmine is there, technically—but it’s buried, its indoles diffused into something soft and hazy, like a flower seen through frosted glass. Not sharp, thank god not too skanky, just a ghost of something sultry beneath the powdered velvet. It’s actually real wearable, dare I say rather pleasant. Maybe not for me, but nonetheless a beautifully constructed, well-balanced, spiced tonka cloud.

It reminds me of a sweeter Althair with a much less pronounced cinnamon note. It’s incredibly sweet, and it’s full of Amber, vanilla and it smell like a bit of bourbon or rum. It has a bit of warm spice to it as well. Relatively speaking, an almond-vanilla flavored bourbon basically topped off with cinnamon. One thing I will say for sure, is that this thing PROJECTS and is eternal as fuck. So much to the point where it can cloying. I guess that comes standard for BTSO extraits tho. I would buy a 50ml but it also reminds me of something else in my ‘to buy list’ and for that, it’s a bit redundant. Still would rate it a 8/10

This fragrance leans dark and atmospheric, opening with a rich, almost syrupy fruit note that reads like deep purple grape—sweet, slightly artificial, and a little intoxicating—before quickly warming into a creamy sandalwood base. As it develops, a subtle smoky or resinous edge creeps in, giving the impression of something gently burning beneath the surface, like heated wood or singed sweetness. The overall effect is dense and moody, blending jammy fruit, smooth woods, and a faint charred haze into a scent that feels both alluring and a little offbeat, like sweetness pushed just to the edge of something darker.

it’s very sensual white floral vanilla scent. at the begining it was a bit animalic on my skin, but then it opened up to this bouquet of sweet white floral combine with amber and vanilla. long lasting and interesting. definetly not a safe blind buy. i’m glad that i bought a sampel and discovered it.

lasts an incredibly long time, especially on clothes and hair, and is very powerful. Its much sweeter than i anticipated but the warmth still comes through! The tonka bean is really strong, but you will be complimented on it a lot.

This is a very spicy, warm and sexy perfume, it is a bit dark and not really a type of fragrance I would wear. More suitable for Kim K type of girls. A compliment getter for sure.

this is what wor$t girl in america smells like to me. there's a sharp, almost nauseating twinge to it– like gasoline. instant love

this smell reminds me of a cow milk farm

Sampling Borntostandout Dirty Heaven, a bright, sweet, powdery blend of jasmine, tonka, musk, neroli, vanilla, amber, and woods, overall pretty pleasant but with a bit of a peach candied quality amidst the smoother elements of flowers and sweets, definitely a bit feminine-leaning, stereotypically, but overall, fairly pleasant and likely versatile. It’s an example of a fragrance that I’d rather smell on someone else than myself, however, and I think it would likely be a turnoff for those weary of floral, powdery, or sweet fragrance, as it’s not too subtle in any of those respects. I think it’s a decent offering but not one that I particularly gravitate towards. As with the rest of the house’s collection, this is EDP concentration and priced at $210/85 for 50/15ml, not bad in the current market for niche perfume, and it performs very well on me. 6 out of 10

It chokes me. Fortunately I ordered a sample from LuckyScent before committing to an entire bottle. It opens with a medicine/adhesive bandage smell. Cherry & leather. Evolves deeper into a rubber smell. HOWEVER, my husband said it smelled sexy and one of the best I've ever worn. Hmmm. I put it on around 8 pm and in the middle of the night I got up to wash my arm as it was literally keeping me awake. So the longevity is A++++++. It's too much for me, too much ambroxan, too much like the ladies in church who used to drown themselves in Red Door back in the day.

At first I thought this fragrance was gonna be under the same umbrella as Blanche Bête, but boy was I wrong and naive. I don’t like it. On my skin it just smells like hot water with sugar (the kind you drink when you have a stomach ache) with a slight metallic note. It’s 100% a unisex fragrance. Perhaps it can shine if layered with something else but on its own it’s just a bland sweetish scent to me. On paper it was much better, especially the first time I smelled it. Too bad it’s a disappointment on my skin. Rating: 6/10 ⚪️

The clearest note I could smell was saffron, I knew it as soon as I put it on. I can also pick out syrupy vanilla and bitter almond, but in general, it has a hellish synthetic vibe, if I say nail polish, it's not nail polish...it's like I'm in an art studio, everyone is frantically painting on canvases... 🎨

I don't know what it is but it gives me a strong vibe of Tempfluo Nishane - maybe it's the mix of saffron and jasmine? I am leaning towards Tempfluo more though, as it's a bit less overwhelming and cheaper. Both fragrances are very intense though, not exactly my style, but I like them :)

I am very surprised cherry is not listed as a note! I get a very cherry forward vibe, overly sweet, definitely sexy and a heavy scent. Although I like it, its not to die for and feels like a more mature/older woman scent Projection and longevity are crazy!

To my nose, this is quite similar to "liquide gold". With gasoline vanilla vibe mixing some white florals. I really hate the cap of Borntostandout, it will fall off if you are not careful. Weird design, they should add a magnet inside the cap.

theres a sort of cherry cough syrup scent permeating through the slightly smoky bright florals and im not entirely sure how to feel about it but ill give it some wear and re-asses

Tooth-aching sweet tonka and some warmth from the amber and saffron. I see why people like it. Sadly tonka doesn't work well with my skin chemistry.

There’s a sharpness to the florals that makes me not want to wear this

there's this pepto bismol-like quality to it, very interesting

Similar to Mugler's Alien but more synthetic. Meh.

This smells straight up like car tire rubber to me

I received a sample of this and all I smell metallic! It reminds of the cough syrup that my Grandmother gave me when I was a kid. It was called Father John’s and maybe I have an adverse reaction to DH because that medicine was disgusting!!! This is a hard PASS!

I love white florals but this is very tart, so much so that I find unsettling. It smells very medicinal, like liquid cough syrup.

Overpoweringly sweet and warm, there are no shades of grey here. Just sweet layered over sweet. Not my vibe.
