Mentha

I got samples from Fiele and I thought this would be my least favorite as I'm not huge into minty scents. I was blind-sidedly wrong. This was my favorite and ended up buying a bottle. Mentha's opening envelops you with a pleasing medley of spearmint and honeyed neroli. Haven't figured it out yet, but there's something distant, yet very familiar here that evokes a nostalgic feeling. Mid-notes greet us with clementine zest with a sprinkle of hay. Dry-down is a pleasing sweet natural cedar with soft cardamom. The spearmint kinda stays throughout and says hey every now and then. This is a well-blended complex beaut. definitely worth a try!

When I was a child and lived in Brazil I use to get this mint chewing gum called Ping Pong and today when I spray this mentha perfume I was transported to my childhood because smells identical to this chewing gum. Smells are truly magic they can transport you to another time alright. I got a bottle. This is very refreshing and I highly recommend for a hot day. Love it.

Happy to see this small niche perfume house added to the data base. Mentha is a beautiful mint dominant perfume, with herbs and spices: cardamon, neroli, vetiver and citrus notes are all blended well. I also smell hay, a little barnyard feel but I like it. Drydown has cedar and musk in it, with decent performance this scent makes me wish for warmer temperatures.

This is divine. Fluffy, gentle, exquisite.. I sampled it yesterday and ordered a bottle today. I am new to fragrances but my nose knows that this is perfection.

I have not done this previously, as I'm here to review perfumes. But this is a review for the parent company of Fiele, Capsule Parfumerie. Ordering from them has been a major hassle with a complete lack of customer service and support along the way. I placed an order for two bottles of perfume. After 4 days, I still had not received a shipping confirmation. I proactively reached out to the company and was eventually told the items I ordered were no longer available. Why was I only being told this 5 days after placing the order? Moreover, they failed to refund the full amount of my purchase. Nothing but excuses from them. I have another Fiele fragrance which I think is quite good, but can't see ever giving them business in the future. Just a mess from start to finish.
