Grano

It just stopped raining, the scent of petrichor is still in the air and you walk across the street into a small bakery. You go for a big chocolate chip cookie, sourdough made from a starter that is older than you, and a beautiful brioche bread. You go to a park nearby with the grass still glistening from the rain, sit on the ground and eat what you just bought. Soft, warm sunlight peaks through. This is delicious on the skin but somehow doesn't smell artificial? I'm taken back to when I used to work in a Bakery. This smells similar to the scent that gets stuck to me and my clothes when I go back home - Butter and bread with a hint of sweetness. It also lasts a long long time.

Do YOU want to smell like a young, hardworking woodland creature who follows her dream to open a bakery? Or a scout troop eating their own bake sale stock while camping under an open sky? Well, I learned I do. This is great. Instantly hooked. It's fun and doesn't smell 'artificial.' It's actually a bit strong, that might be the only downside for me. It can get a little grating and doesn't layer well but who would want to layer it? It's wacky and wonderful as it is! Will absolutely try the rest of Jijide, this had every chance to be a disaster and it's just fantastic.

The best neo-gourmand representation. Love it uniqueness and complexity. It smells like crispy brown bread crust. I really suggest you to try it somehow. Huge pleasure to wear it, especially late drydown is so charming. Performance is ultra good!

Go read what @MM Word wrote. It is outdoorsy flirting with gourmand. I can't stop thinking about it.

A beautiful, warm, comforting perfume. This is also quite unique, but as a lover of Zoologist this reminds me quite a bit of “Rabbit” from them. Edible and charming but it smells like a baking spices and a hug. Happy to have this as a sample, but probably more of a cold weather fragrance or something to put on for a comfortable evening. While Rabbit smells exactly like a taro boba tea, Grano leans more in a baked goods direction without being overly vanilla or artificial. I think it’s worth a try for sure! I might go in for a full bottle if the longevity is there.
