A Gloaming Night

I tried nearly every fragrance from the Alchemist line and found some of them very average, and massively overpriced. I never got to try Gloaming Night because it was always sold out until today; and now I understand why it's popular and sold out. Gloaming Night was love at first smell, and the best from the alchemist line. I'm very picky about cinnamon and because of that, I've never bought one... until now. This fragrance is an excellent cinnamon. Spicy but not overpowering cinnamon and patchouli. Smells expensive, luxurious, and classy. It's simple, and I wish it was a little more complex, but succeeds in what it is. Gucci finally hit a home run with this one. Bottom Line: Best from the alchemist line IMO. Voice of the snake is good if you're not already familiar with that DNA (it is done better elsewhere) last day of summer is great option but hard to find,and Eyes of the Tiger is amazing amber tonka. This is simple, but it's great at what it does. Scent: 8.8/10 Performance: 6.5/10 Edit: Hortus Sanitatis is now my favorite from the alchemist line. Unfortunately, you can only find it at select boutiques and online for a price that will make your heart stop

This one is outstanding, and everything I "hoped" The Last Day of Summer would be when I purchased them together. With a large collection I grow tired of the typical floral/sweet/gourmand/woody tones that I consider safe and mass appealing. I'm always on the lookout for something unique that will stand out and give me a moments pause when I apply. I will admit this and others like that will not be everyone's cup of tea, but for ME it's more about the experience and having gentle reminders throughout the day that what I'm wearing isn't like anything else I can smell on others around me. This is an Oriental base with just the right amount of sweetness. For what it's worth I feel this bares no resemblance to Gris Dior which is another favorite of mine.

Love this one. Wonderful balance of earthiness and sweetness from the patchouli. I don't really pick up on the cinnamon, so I think it's sort of blending into things. There is something special here and it's a sort of unidentifiable, high-quality scent for me (which I think it patchouli being used strategically, which is not always the case). Not especially great longevity and sillage is mostly intimate. Very unisex, even for people who might be more traditional. I would recommend checking this one out if you have an opportunity.

Such a great perfume. I can smell each note, but the cinnamon ties everything together in this kind of earthy, kind of sweet mix that really is something so unique and special. I just used up the last of my small decant of this, but I’m currently sitting, sniffing myself, enjoying this last hurrah of A Gloaming Night because I’ll probably never get a chance to smell it again. Completely unisex, moderate longevity and sillage. Very worth getting your nose on.

I’ve been wanting A Gloaming Night for so long, and finally for this year’s “ber months” I took the plunge. ✨ # autumn 2025 🤎 It’s festive, spicy, deep, and utterly beautiful ... cinnamon, vetiver, patchouli all in perfect harmony. And the bottle is stunning .. A ruby red jewel in my collection. Wearing it feels like stepping into twilight ... magical, elegant, and totally indulgent. I’m officially hooked ❤️ - Bhavna Darira Chesan
