Pomelos No 21

Pomelos 21's note list intrigued me enough to get a decant on a whim, but it doesn't smell like I expected at all - which was a bright, tart pomelo/rubarb combination softened by floral notes and a hint of musk. Instead, it smells unlike any citrus scent I've ever tried; it's neither bright and sparkling, nor gourmand-leaning, nor especially aromatic. What it does smell like is very hard to describe, especially since I can't pick out any of the individual notes: it's a unique scent, powdery and a little sweet, but not very much, and also slightly medicinal. I guess it's just one of those fragrances that smells only of itself, which can be a bad thing, but in this case I think it's great - after testing it for a couple of days, I've grown to like it quite a lot. So instead of a new variation on a beloved theme (even if it's one I personally can't get enough of), I got something wholly unexpected and original... a lovely surprise! Definitely worth a test, I know I'm certainly glad I took a chance on this one.

This perfume is actually quite a hard perfume to describe as it’s unlike any citrus perfume I’ve ever tried.I can only describe it as a grapefruity rubharby earthy bright citrus I don’t really smell any peach but the orange is there definitely it then settles to a slightly floral woody clean musk smell it’s actually really pleasant.The grapefruity smell which I assume is the pomelo stays with the scent throughout but softens.I bought this as a refill bottle for a very reasonable price on eBay it was certainly worth trying I’m looking forward to trying this in the heat as I think it will be so refreshing on hot days I’m happy

I received this in a swap and I'm so glad I had a chance to try it out. :) It opens on me in a really bright burst of citrusy pungent pomelo with a sharp cedar note...it is almost a 'menthol pee' odor, not entirely unpleasant but I kept waiting for it to progress into something else... Which it did, thank Goodness. The cedar grew more prominent and softened out with the musk and was actually a really lovely and really wearable scent for about an hour. And then it vanished. Kaput. Gone. Poof! So, very interesting scent, but it didn't last on me so it's probably not a keeper, sadly.

i don't know if mine is the same scent as this. It is a crystal splash bottle (like no31 and no51) in a wood case painted dark blue, with dark gold paint written "LeParfum Fragrance 21" It smells a huge powdery floral(rose, ylang, a somewhat yellow floral notes to me) rather than citrusy and white floral.
