Scoville

This is it. My ultimate pepper scent. I’ve been craving straight capsaicin in a perfume ever since I started exploring peppery notes and NONE of them have hit right. The little tickle you get in your nose when slicing fresh serrano peppers or sniffing dried ghost peppers is what I’ve been craving and it is perfectly represented here. Scoville is just so playful while still being vegetal and fresh. I can totally understand why some people might not like this scent, but if you’ve been looking for more pepper from your peppery fragrances, try Scoville. I’m interested to see how it layers in the future - if I might be able to amplify other peppery perfumes that fade too quickly or aren’t quite peppery enough. I’m also very pleased with the first few hours of projection – one of my coworkers popped his head in and immediately asked me what I’d cooked with peppers that morning, so there’s a good 4-6’ projection that lasts at least 3-4 hours and apparently the scent is SPOT on to anyone who might have the chance to smell you!

I ordered a sample of this on luckyscent since I was already getting a few others and thought "why the hell not?". As soon as I opened the vial it smelled like I had just chopped up some fresh jalapeños. And I love it. When wearing it is a fresh and spicy green scent with a wonderful woody background. A very photorealistic pepper smell. I can imagine this will also layer very well with other green scents I own. The thing that makes me the happiest is that this is not a freshie that fades quickly. Not much seems to last on me, but Scoville can be smelled on my arm all day. It's a dream come true. I now want a full bottle so bad.

if the question is "who wants to smell like a fresh bell pepper all day?" i guess the answer is me. i love this so much, i am so happy every time i smell myself. gourmand in a savory way, if that were a thing. it starts super peppery but dries down to a lower key, the sweet vanilla is a beautiful base layer it gives way to over time, somehow a much less edible note than how it opens. beautiful, fresh, perfect for summer if you don't want to smell like a coconut or other tropical note.

I had the pleasure of smelling this on my partner on multiple occasions and it was radiant and spicy in a natural way. It truly smells like you are eating something spicy but eventually turns into earthy notes. A true winner and I couldn't stop smelling him or my wrist when I tried it on. My favourite thing was to smell it on clothes, and then it truly showed its colours.

So peppery. So much earthy goodness. Made my husband’s eyes water. I now want a salad. There are so many things you could layer this with. Mild headache inducer though
