Pyrus

I just sampled this on skin today and of all the samples from the brand this one stood out! When I was digging my nose in deep I guessed that lavender was in the composition along with sweet notes and a nuttiness/creaminess about it. When I checked the notes I was right about the lavender! And when you combine all of the fruity sweet notes with the saltiness and the lavender it makes this beautiful accord which to me reminded me of maple syrup or brown sugar with soft rounded edges - no harshness at all. It’s a really addictive yummy smell that is definitely gourmand leaning. I want to play with this one more and possibly pick up a bottle soon! ❤️

Fermented herbs. Do not blind buy. Haven't thought of any occasion to use this.

Sorry, but the ingredients here are a mess. I think the salt has no place here.

Smells like money. Smells like old money. Everything Marc Jacobs "Decadence" wanted to be, but niche. Perfectly unisex. In the note breakdown I get sweet and herbal, papery. Not mentioned in the note breakdown is that it's got 2 types of spicy: spicy-herbal like menthol and spicy like fennel. Or some sort of Indian incense. In spite of this description, it's actually a very pleasant smell! Criminal Elements are known for making very unique scents with notes or combinations that are not found readily on the market. In spite of being very "avant garde", they are very wearable.

This has been the pick of the line, so far... The salty lavender blends perfectly with the apple and creates and amazing accord that I would describe as a muddy, tobacco-driven fruity-floral blend. It really works. It really, truly works and I'm looking forward to trying this one again and possibly making a decision regarding a purchase soon... Big fan. Big big fan.
