Une Pistache

I’m not sure why anyone would assume this would be a super sweet gourmand smelling scent based off the notes or the accords...so I’m not someone who was disappointed when it was ofc not that. I was expecting a powdery and woody pistachio, not a dessert type of a pistachio, and that’s exactly what this is. This is a gorgeous scent, truly a unique scent in the pistachio profile! This opens with an earthy, slightly spiced, carrot scent that is quickly followed by a sweet and airy almond aroma. It’s doughy, powdery, woody, like the dry ingredients of a cake. Then comes the pistachio and it’s only slightly sweet, with soft florals making it feel fluffy and cozy. The sandalwood, cashmere, and musk make this creamy and enveloping; the sweetness is subtle, cozy, and natural, like an earthy sweetness not a foodie one. This feels like eating pistachios dusted with sweet cinnamon on a couch by the fireplace on a rainy day wrapped in a cashmere blanket. I would say the pistachio prominent but so is the carrot, the heliotrope, and the sandalwood. Definitely a very unisex scent as well.

I’ve had a full bottle bottle of Une Pistache for 6 months now and just got a sample of Meander from Amouage and another one of Lost Alice by Masque Milano to see how they compare. Une Pistache is my absolute favorite. It’s like a combination of Lost Alice and Meander but with more heliotrope. It’s the most powdery and balanced. Dry powdery florals. The least vegetable carrot out of the three as well, this one almost only has the sweetness from the carrot without the rest of the carrot if that makes sense. Almost like a carrotcake but not really. When I first got my bottle it lasted 4 hours, now it lasts 6-7. Soft projection like the rest. I’d say this is powdery, woody, a little sweet and something milky-nutty in the background. The main note isn’t actually pistachio, according to their website it’s pistachio milk so don’t expect something like Cheriosa 62. ❌Don’t expect a gourmand, this is more of a gris charnel vibe but different notes. ❌ Not a pickle sandalwood like Santal 33. ✔️Perfectly unisex.

Such a lovely, lovely scent! At first whiff, all I smell is peppery cardamom, spiciness and a bit of earthy carrot, but very uplifting and smoothly blended. That' great because it's morning and this kick improves my mood! I must admit I don't get much of a pistachio, just a pleasant, invigorating, warm, spicy smell! After awhile sweetness emerges, I believe those are the almonds and milky note, heliotrope, pistachio milk but, again, not much of a pistachio. Maybe a bit salty and nutty thanks to it? As the time progresses, it becomes more pleasantly sweet, silky, and discrete - I have to raise my wrist to my nose to smell it. (Maybe I just didn't spray enough.) I don't get much wood either, just a delicate play of romantic and cashmere-ish sweetness without any notes aggressively taking over or disrupting this balance. Such a nice one to test! I'll buy a bottle.

This is a nice surprise, a different proposition on pistachio, lighter and more balanced than the gourmand pistachio fragrances I'm used to. The first impression is powdery white flowers with a soft pistachio aroma. As it evolves, the fragrance reminds me of a sweet pistachio latte, made with plant milk. The lactonic note is probably brought by the sandalwood, whereas the olibanum adds balsamic sweetness and a nice dimension. The pistachio is more on the artificial flavor side rather than nutty, which contributes to the fragrance's lightness. The sillage and longevity are rather weak.

My go-to scent these days! It’s comforting - a little sweet, nutty, creamy in the beginning, and I get the cashmere and soft sandalwood on the dry down. Ultimate coziness. I LOVE the carrot and cardamom in the opening. All the notes harmonize beautifully. It’s not a straightforward pistachio, as the inspiration for the fragrance is a pistachio dessert. Which makes sense, as it reminds me of Indian desserts like kheer and kesar pista kulfi! Une Pistache is incredibly versatile - great for everyday and also easily dressed up. Finished my decant and sprung for a full bottle!

After letting this one macerate for nearly a year, I love it! At the opening, I get carrot & mascarpone cake vibe, the way my mom used to make it, and after an hour, it settles down to a baked pumpkin, drizzled with honey, mixed with ginger, turmeric and cardamom. Yummy! My daughters like it very much, as well, and they are 25 and 14, so I guess it doesn’t feel old fashioned. 🥰 Lasts on my skin the whole day.

I have finally find a lovely pistachio fragrance. I was looking for a pistachio scent since I try the kayali who I was very disappointed with this perfume. « The pistache » is more a real pistachio with sandalwood and musk for grownup. It’s creamy and not sugary. I love it so much in cold rainy weather. Very conforting. The longevity is very good height hours at least on my skin.

The most realistic pistachio fragrance to my nose! It is not too sweet, the scent reminds me of pistachio butter made of roasted pistachios. Unlike other pistachio fragrances that have almondy note (or in confectionery if one adds almond aroma but dyes the dessert green making it seem like a pistachio dessert), this one has rather something peppery to it.

This is a creamy and smooth cardamom, pistachio and heliotrope delight for me. This is quite potent for the first hour or so on my skin and then settles to a musky, comfortable scent. Yesterday I had this on one arm and was testing a sweet rose fragrance on the other and they worked beautifully together.

This is so soft and unexpectedly sweet. Yes, it does smell ever so slightly of pistachio, but I really get the heliotrope here and it's such a soft florally, nutty fragrance. I get the cashmeran and the musk as well. If you're interested in a sweet and soft florally pistachio, this is the one for you :-)

Amazing pistachio, yammy, milky and refreshing, with a leafy green turning green pistachio accord, not roasted but milk ripped, very gentle, almost not sweet, or rather pleasantly sweet. I instantly imagined pistachios over ice cream. A pinch of heliotrope (with almond), tender mimosa-like powderiness.

I love this one! The pistache milk note, the cardamom, so calm and comforting! The carrot note is so interesting because i actually smelled carrot cake for a moment which was a surprise. My mom loved it when she smelled it on me. If you're a cardamom and pistachio fan, this one is for you!

now i dont get pistachio or carrot from this, but its such a lovely smell, like warmed almond milk. i love this for bedtime its very soothing. its very intimate, and not strong, very much musky and skin-adjacent, like your skin in a warm blanket

Obvious has some unique, but one dimensional fragrances Un pistache is the top star. I like Un thé also. If you are looking for something that is pistachio prominent get this It is mainly sweet a bit salty. Carrot is visible as well 10/10

Днес ми пристигна и вече съм с него.Купих го след едно пръскане в магазин.Просто не спрях да си душа ръката. Много ми харесва,толкова ми е меко,млечно и сладко.Не усещам кисели и сапунени нотки,както са писали някои.За сега ми харесва :)

If santal 33 and pistachio ice cream had a baby, this is how the baby's skin would smell. Soft and powdery and dreamy.

Love pistachio + heliotrope combination, beautifully executed.

Best pistachio fragrance on the market + reasonable price

The Santal 33 of pistachio fragrances

This is probably the only pistachio scent that has come out that I would deem successful. DS Durga's was a huge patchouli bomb and Kayali's is sweet, screechy, and synthetic. The Kyse one is photorealistic Talenti pistachio gelato but too on the nose for me—plus, I dislike their oil formula. I wasn't expecting much from this perfume and expected it to be heavy on the cardamom like L'aromatica's Kulfi. Une Pistache is pleasant and well-blended—at first whiff, the toasted, nutty pistachio is very apparent. However, within seconds, the toasted note takes a backseat, and the heliotrope, carrot, and musk take over. It is a pleasant, soft, nut-milky smell with an ever-so-tiny green and floral note presence. The more I smell my wrist, the more I get an almondy/soy milk scent with a bit of a spicy, green/floral edge that prevents it from going into true gourmand territory. While I think the toasted pistachio note deserves a little bit more "screen time", this is a more wearable, versatile perfume. I can't decide whether this is a like or love just yet—that green note fluctuates from being a little too heady to comforting and cozy.
