Sky Father

Sad that I didn’t review this yet, considering I’ve had it for a year! Slacking. So, it’s no secret (if you’ve seen any of my other dame reviews) - he does it right. If you’ve purchased anything from him in the past, expect samples when new releases come out. I think that’s awesome. I hope he always runs his business that way. Skyfather: So I think I understand the name. Sky being airy, transparent, bright. Father being strong, pronounced, dominant. Sky notes: zesty citrus, lime, neroli, vanilla. Father notes: cinnamon, lavender, musk, anise You can see the contrast at play here. It’s fresh but dominant. Airy but dense. Zesty but spicy. Right but what does it smell like? Well it smells really nice. The most prominent notes I detect are zesty citrus, cinnamon and white musk. It’s almost effervescent. The overall composition reminds me (though does not smell like) Chanel egoiste. I don’t think younger guys will like this. Although it’s not a “mature” scent in the traditional sense, it is something that has to be appreciated and may not produce instant gratification. Dame does it right. I hope this house continues to gain popularity. 7/10

I know we all have different perceptions of smell so we all have to understand that when it comes to these reviews. With that said you might consider me nuts... So what I get is a little soapy vibe especially at first then after an hour or so I get a little Eau des Baux by L`Occitane. While this is enjoyable it's not my favorite from this house, New Musk Man is. 3rd Day update: OK, I judged this unfairly on day one and two, at first I was a little disappointed in performance but on the 3rd day I used 4 dabs on each arm instead of two and it changed my opinion big time! It lasted ALL DAY and was even a little too strong at first. This way out performs my favorite New Musk Man by a mile. Now if they can amp up New Musk I would never need another fragrance again - I love it that much. I still get a soapy Eau des Baux 'feel' to it.

imagine my surprise when one of the bonus samples included in my sample order turns out to be one of my faves - and i didn't even order any masculine scents! the opening of Sky Father on me is spicy citrus - sparkling lemon without any hint of a cleaning-product note, backed up by a hit of fresh air touched with cinnamon-clove. That sounds like a candle, but instead it's sophisticated and well-balanced... spicy with no hint of a bakery. as it dries down, the lavender, musk and herbs step forth. this is a refreshing and somehow clear scent. on me, it's not as soapy as others describe, but it is definitely clean, herbaceous, and musky. i may buy a bottle of this for my husband that i steal sprays from every once in a while... i really love it.

This is outstanding! For those of us who love the heavier scents, this is a fantastic summer scent. I was given a little 2ml sample of the alcohol based scent. So this is based on daubing it on the skin. I'm wearing this on a hot, humid, but slightly breezy, overcast day in the tropics (Haiti), and it's like it was made for this weather. Absolutely unisex, but because of it's vibe similar to Spicebomb (though I think this is better), it might be thought of as masculine. Personally, I love it for myself, but might just get a bottle for hubs because I know he'll love it too!

Really really good. I think this is the best Dame. There are some really good reviews below me, espec. pickenders so I'll leave it to him but would just say don't let the high vote count for clove and cinnamon scare you off. This is a complex and gentle scent that doesn't let the spices trounce the more delicate notes.
