Pearfecto

My first Gallagher experience. Pretty impressive across the board. Opens with a fairly bright blend of pear and melon, which is followed shortly by citruses and banana. The drydown is excellent and increases its rather masculine edge with a woody ISO E and ambroxan blend (thankfully not in the predictable designer way) throughout its long lifespan. It's working great right now during a cool spring, but I bet it's a lot of fun into the summer and early autumn. Unisex, leaning masculine, but would still be perfect on Carmen Miranda. Yes, it's fruity at the beginning, but its personality is dynamic and interesting, with just a bit of an edge, over time. Great performance, always fun, and probably appealing to most.

This is definitely for the mature. This is a masculine man's fragrance... I do not, at all, see this being unisex. One told me this reminded them of Fahrenheit, I get a maybe for that but it's not it. They said it reminded them only. It's like a potent pear. It's on that level in terms of strong, potent smells. This really can be an all around fragrance. While I see some say Summer, I can better feel for this in the fall maybe. It gives off that autumn vibe to me more than the summer one It's a strong like from me...leaning to a love ( we'll see by weeks end ) Definitely worth checking out.

I just received my decant a couple of Days ago. This is a perfect over-riped pear of the type Conference. You get the fruitiness of melon and banana, patchouili is noticeable, but sits well in the background with no disturbing factors. The scent does have some kind of men's Cologne vibe (party because of grapefruit/ambroxan?), but in a good way. As some have mentioned, it does have some resemblance, or brand DNA if you may, with AMongs Waves. A fun, sunny, summer type, vacation fragrance. If you like pear in fragrances, you must try this one. Well done, Daniel.

pear pear pear! yummy, perfect, juicy, pear! very natural but doesn't stick around for long. The initial pear blast gives way to the other fruits and accords in about 10 minutes.The drydown is water logged driftwood with a bit of ambroxan. I really appreciate the ride this fragrance gave me. if I smelled only the top notes and forgot about it for 20 minutes then sniffed again I would wonder if they were even the same fragrance! I think people searching for a fruity 'masculine' gourmand will enjoy this one.

Initially this was a no, an almost headache inducing no... buuut wait for it to settle!! Ooooh man is it amazing! The word used below was “potent”; I agree 100%, and almost washed it off, but I’m so glad I didn’t. Once the citron, cedar and driftwood start peeking through, the pungency of the super sweet fruit mellows, blending so so beautifully! So hang in there if it’s too much initially, it was worth the wait for me

@eaudebaldi - Im a woman in my early 40s and I love Pearfecto, in fact I bought a bottle of it today, from Perfumology in Philly. My boyfriend loved it on my skin and so did I! Some people may say this is NOT a unisex scent or it’s masculine leaning but smell is very subjective, what might smell like a masculine fragrance to some, may smell like a feminine or unisex fragrance to others... just a thought!!!

First tried Pearfecto a few months ago. It didn’t make a strong impression on me. It’s now a few months later in August, when the Georgia heat/humidity are peaking. Damn this now is really appealing to me. The dry down scent seems more masculine with the cedar, patchouli, & ambergris (and just a little fruit sweetness). Will wear this more often while it’s still hot and humid. 👍

I have a first release 2020 bottle in the original bottle if anyone is interested in buying. It’s 100ml . Discontinued . Message me

How can you give your vote for a scent that has just been released and has not been shipped yet? :(...

Pearfecto is Gallagher Fragrances’ most recent releases, from early 2020, and is a fresh and fruity mix that that’s aptly named, with featured notes of pear, banana, melon, grapefruit, champaca, and driftwood. The fruity mix is curious—I’m not usually a big fan of pear, but it’s well-blended with the other fruit notes, the florals, and the woody/salty touch of driftwood. It feels like an easy, unisex summer winner that’s bright and invigorating for the daytime, especially. It’s among the most versatile and friendliest of the fragrances in the line, like Bergamust, but still with some idiosyncrasies like Fineapple and O’Fraiche. Overall, it’s very nice, and I’d say that even for those that don’t generally like pear, this is something that should be tried. Like other fragrances in the line, the featured note in the name of the fragrance is not the full story, and this is a rather interesting blend that’s quite harmonious. Pearfecto is priced at $155 for 100ml, $95 for 30ml, with samples available, as well, and is sold through the Gallagher Fragrances website in the US. Particularly at the 100ml size, the pricing throughout the line remains very reasonable and for someone that loves this fragrance, it’s an especially great deal to be under the $2/ml rate. 7 out of 10

Fruit Punch in a bowl. Opening is pear, pineapple, marine notes and retro 7-up. There’s an effervescent quality to the perfume that reminds me of summer cocktails from the 1970s. Pearfecto is fun, light and refreshing with a touch of synthetics to amp up the projection and give it some longevity. One of the things I really admire about the perfumer is the way he combines natural and synthetic notes—and have it all coming out compelling in the final composition.

Smells like a realistic green banana scent. Opening is fruity though the pear is quickly evasive. It's a little fresh, a little powdery, and a lot of fun. Revisiting the scent after ~45min to settle and the banana has mostly escaped leaving a richly green banana rind fragrance. Still very interesting, but not quite as fruity and sweet as the opener.

Sweet Japanese melon lollies, but with an incredible banana note.

Melon and banana--and a touch of strawberry?

I would wear this to beach, pool party or any warm day not too hot outdoors. Mainly get ambergris, fresh crisp fruitiness, kinda woody and a little floral. Banana is strong in beginning but goes away as perfume dry down then left with the slight creaminess, sweetness, slight floralness of banana. Banana and pear mix with driftwood and ambergris give off beach vibes. I almost can smell sand.

Artisan fruity concoction. I knew I smelled banana. 🍌 Suffers from quality issues. Alternates between decent, photorealistic pear, and cleaning product citrus. Deep nuance.

Fresh pear/banana on a bed of watery violet and cedar. Unisex leaning masculine. Strong sillage and longevity. This actually makes a lovely, long-lasting room spray.

If you’re someone whose skin amps up grapefruit (mine does), this leans into bathroom cleaner/ cheap men’s cologne. On paper- love; on my skin. God no.

The melon and citrus ends up smelling like bananas. Who wants to smell like banana laffy taffies?

The initial burst is very off putting. It lasts about a good 45 mins to an hour. I love Gallagher frags but this is a hell no! Easily the worst frag that I have smelled this year. I have no idea what note or combo of note does this but it smells musky from beginning to end on my skin.
