Loubicroc

Love, love, love this! This is a unique fragrance. I'm thinking the uniqueness comes from the Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha that are listed in the notes. I clicked on these notes to see what other perfumes have them. I noticed that almost all of those perfumes that have these notes are NOT the ones that you hear about on YouTube or the forums. So again, a scent that is more rare. Don't blind buy though. For me, it's hard to describe the notes. I know amber and myrrh but this fragrance is truly a melange and linear. You just can't identify any one note, unless it's the Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha. Hope that makes sense. Great sillage but poor longevity, I'm afraid. Three hours max. Last thing, I read that Billie Eillish came out with a scent. For some reason, I would imagine that this would be her scent. Unique and unafraid to be unique.

This to me is a veeery creamy sandalwood fragrance. I don’t really detect myrrh which is a shame because I love that now as well. I enjoy wearing this during the day during winter more than at night. Cozy and a great addition to my sandalwood fragrance collection 💖

Loubicroc was the fragrance that initially grabbed me from the line. The heavy glass bottles with the fancy but solid caps are beautiful. This type of amber almost reminds me of Gaultier’s ‘Classique Essence De Parfum’ in a similar honey'd orange blossom, whipped cream type of spicy amber (minus the jasmine), maybe it’s just the slight 90’s vibe it gives. It’s a lavish, retro amber that’s a spicy oriental dream if you like it warmed with buttery vanilla cream and topped with a powdery cake dusting. There’s no vanilla listed, but it’s unmistakable and too sweet for me (I can’t tolerate vanilla). It’s surprisingly soft and powdery and doesn’t particular last well. If you like this style of spicy amber fragrance with a little vanilla, then a similar type would be 6 place Saint Sulpice by Yves Saint Laurent.

Woody slightly sweet slightly powdery perfume. Probably the tamest of the collection. Like it the least of this collection too. Except for the bottle which I like the most. This is like JML Myrrh & Tonka without the sweetness of tonka bean, making it lame and not interesting. Doesn’t resemble Santal 33 in my opinion. Edit. Turned out to be soft and powdery throughout for the dry down which lasted all in all over 24 hrs. Liked it even though I can’t find a reason why. A very tame perfume for everyday wear at a price too high for average consumer. That’s it! Designer stuffs! Edit. The scent remains after laundry. Love it.

The balsamic accord here is warm and mellow, with an ambery, vanillic sweetness. It pairs pleasurably with the slightly dirty woodiness of the cypriol, as well as the dry powderiness of the sandalwood. It has the coziness of evening in a dusty one-room cabin in early winter. There's a pile of wood in the corner, to stoke the fire, and a scratchy wool blanket to curl up in. The cabin's small cupboards are not well stocked, but they do yield an old coffee mug full of pitch fire-starter, a third of a bottle of spiced whiskey, and a bag of marshmallows that are somewhat stiff with age.
