Ghost Trees

This is by FAR my favorite of the samples I got from Fulton & Rourke. It's fantastic, but it only lasts a couple of hours and it's >$200 for a bottle. I'd spray it on everything if I could. I've even come close to talking myself into the price before, but it's been sold out on their website for over a year. It has all of the notes I love without the artificial powderiness that I care less for. The pink pepper is quite strong, which I like, and the driftwood hangs around pleasantly after the other scents evaporate. It's also one of very few scents I've found that is truly unisex; usually "unisex" scents lean more masculine to me. There's something in this that smells like the Canvas room spray from Target in a nice way.

Love at first sniff. Blind bought this as I have a fondness of ghost trees, and a shopping problem. From some of the other F&R reviews I’ve seen, there is a common theme where one batch has great projection, and the next is more of a skin scent— well I got the skin scent batch here. But my God this stuff smells amazing. Without looking too heavily at the notes before I bought it I put an idea in my head of what I wanted it to smell like, and it was this fragrance. I already want to buy a backup bottle. I don’t care about the projection (forgot to mention that the longevity is awesome, like 8-10 hours awesome) as I appreciate the smell so much. 9.3/10 final rating.

This is one of my favorite "ocean" scents. It smells great with marine notes, cypress, pink pepper, drift wood, and a distant general floral smell. It smells like camping at the beach in California, where you don't really get algae, myrtle or all the other stuff Mediterranean fragrances get. The downside is that its a linear dry down, the notes you smell at the ten minute mark are the same ones you'll smell after six hours. Projection on these notes is strong, though the pink pepper does dominate the first 30 minutes. Ultimately its up to you whether the linear, albeit unique, scent is worth the 50ml for $205 price tag, for me it is.

This is a gem. It’s unique yet it reminds you of something pleasant from the past but you just can’t quite figure out what it is. Very fresh, yet sweet and airy. Reminds me of summers when I was a child. Lasts me basically all day. I would say It definitely leans more towards masculine, however i would love to smell this in a woman as well. A little pricey for what it is, but it’s very unique so I would pay the price tag any day.

Fantastic and unique opening (almost like Glossier You, but with salt and wood notes). Unfortunately, on my skin, it turns almost into an overwhelming neroli scent after an hour.
