Eterniris

I got a few of the newer samples more recently from Hermetica (pricy to ship to Australia!) and immediately loved this one. Will definitely be a full bottle buy, but alas, not for me. My partner said I smelled like a man, but loved it himself, has taken it, so now I can enjoy it on him. Honestly I couldn't be happier smelling this on him rather than the V&R Spicebomb he wore before (not a fan). This is gorgeous. It's complex and aromatic, without being confused or cloying. It surprises me how many sweeter fruity notes they've got in this, without it smelling as such. It's sort of a clean woody pink pepper to me, if that makes any sense. I entirely agree with dutchhero that they've created a really gorgeous masculine floral here, without it being sweet or trying too hard (like a Paco Robanne 1 Million - not sorry, hate it). I love the smell of it on my partner. I tell him every time he wears it. And as I mention in all of my Hermetica reviews, I love that they're molecular, layerable, non-alcohol based, and you can refill the bottles. Really sets them apart as a brand for me.

What a complex scent--on my skin this is a murky, moody scent, distinctly reminding me of a gathering storm cloud. As a whole, it smells musky, earthy, and a bit metallic without any sweetness (leaning masculine, imo). It's a bit of a mood, complex and mysterious, with hints of other notes, a bit of freshness, a bit of clean, a bit of concrete and rain. It's gorgeous, though I will likely sell my bottle. I have too many other profiles that give me this vibe but lean femme (like Burberry Weekend, Balenciaga L'eau Essence, etc.), and I prefer just a bit of sweetness to balance out the woody vibes. But really--if you are looking for a mysterious, mythic vibe that communicates the old soul that you are, this is it. It's incredibly deep and interesting.

Markanın koleksiyonunu İstanbul Havalimanin da deneme fırsatı buldum. Marka alkol kullanmadığını ve yeni bir molekül sayesinde parfumlerin daha kalıcı olduğunu iddia ediyor. Kalıcılık konusunda güçlü olduğunu söyleyemem. Ancak bu yeni karışım parfümün ilk izlenimini ciddi şekilde etkiliyor sanirim. Ilk koklandiginda çok etkileyici oluyor. Ancak bu kısa sürüyor. Tüm parfümler yarım saat sonra tanıdık parfumlere dönüyor. Kolleksiyonda iki parfümü beğendim. Eterniris ve Amberoud. Kalite hissi veren ve olgun parfumler. Sert oud sevmiyorum. Bu nedenle Amberoud hoşuma gitti. Eterniris ise iris in arka planda olduğu bir parfüm. Ancak markanın çok özgün bir parfümü olduğunu söyleyemem.

This fragrance is wonderful! It was the first Hermetica fragrance I tried, albeit also the newest from this house. It surprised me that this one is super long lasting: I applied it in the morning and could smell it all day (and parts of the evening also). It has a super pleasing, masculine and clean floral scent. I bet it's the lily of the valley. I felt fresh, clean and classy all day long. Although I think it is a perfect unisex scent, I would consider it more masculine, because it is somehow floral but not sweet.

This is such an interesting little fragrance. To tell the truth, I ordered this blindly because of the sheer amount of notes they listed, the great reviews on here, I've been wanting to try this brand, and it was super cheap on fragrancenet. This was one of the biggest surprises in terms of how much I like this scent as it's advertised as a powdery explosion, and while it certainly does have a powdery-ness to it, it's almost velvet-y as Fatter said in their review. There is so much going on here that I really don't know how to describe it. It starts very super... aromatic for lack of a better term as the top notes mix together, I would say that most prevalent notes off the rip are pineapple, rose, and saffron. While this top may seem very feminine, it has a dark rose reminiscent of "Hermann a mas Cortes" by Etat Libre d'Orange. I'm chalking that up to the cedar, oud, and amber but I could be wrong. As it starts to dry down it becomes much more woody but continuing that velvet like smoothness. It's really impressive how they got all of these notes to work together so well, but they do. It becomes a much much more masculine scent as it dries down as the rest of the darker notes begin to push through. Most of the base notes staying at a pretty consistent level of potency as it dries but it gets more musky to my nose the longer it sits on my skin. Though, to be fair, most musky scents are more potent on my skin than other notes. I forget who made the review, but they made a perfect analogy: it's like a old cedar wooden boat en route to trade all of their exotic goods, from fruits and florals to spices and woods; this merchant has it all. I agree with a lot of the reviews with this scent, but I really don't anyone could dislike this. There is something in this potion of goodies for everyone.
