Greylocke

I'm a sucker for woods, and this is extremely woody, therefore it follows that I would love it. It's a cedary scent with a little pine too. I get something a bit tangy that I always associate with vetiver or papyrus. So while there is pine here, it doesn't smell like an evergreen forest to me. It reminded me of Timbuktu--woody and like dry grasses. It's not a particularly complex scent, and it's linear, but when it comes to these super woody fragrances, that is fine by me! I don't find this masculine, but very unisex. Woods are one of those things that I just think belong on both men and women. Notes from the PHLUR website: Sea salt, bergamot, birch leaf, silver vetiver, pine resin, grapefruit, lily of the valley, woody notes, amber, white floral, cedar, citrus, herbal/green notes, violet -------------------------------------------------------- Update: I purchased a FB. I fell for it because it is just about the perfect wood scent for me. Nicely balanced, not too much of any particular facet--not too tangy, not overly astringent, just the right amound of resin, no pepper, and smells like a real tree. Also does not cause massive headaches like many perfumes with chemicals do. I feel that those around me may not like it because it smells like straight-up TREE. But nevermind them, I wear it 100% for me, and there's nothing I love more than smelling trees around me 24/7, and this really fits the bill if you are eccentric in that regard like I am.

Greylocke is definitely something for the outdoorsy type. Very instantly pine the moment it's sprayed, but after 30 minutes or so it settles very nicely on my skin into a mixture of pine, vetiver, and some really faint hints of birch leaf. The smell definitely gives me that feeling of a cool, foggy fall day. I believe it is a very unisex fragrance. On some people it could read more masculine. But as a woman I've found that on me it just tends to smell very citrusy and woody. This one seems to be really affected by skin chemistry so I would definitely try a sample before committing to a full bottle. Luckily phlur has a lovely program where you get a coupon code after ordering a sample set that can be applied towards a full bottle, so the samples are essentially free. I haven't picked up any of the soapy or metallic notes that some people seem to smell, but again, that could just be skin chemistry! for me, a 22 year old outdoor enthusiast, its a 10/10!

Luckily I stocked up on this unique, clean fragrance before it was discontinued and the brand was also discontinued and purchased and rebranded in a way that makes it just a boring, basic “sweet skin musks and candies” line of fragrances. So far from what was originally intended with this brand. This fragrance is so clean and natural smelling. It was my signature scent for a couple of years and I just brought out an OG bottle to wear for a while. Very unique blend on conifer and aromatic, hard to describe. People always stop me to ask what I’m wearing on days that I have this on. Works well in cold weather as well as hot weather. I wish I could get my hands on their original “real Phlur” notes, that would be thrilling. Maybe another line will pick up the original Phlur scents.

Fresh done right! An amazing green scent. To sum this fragrance up, it smells as though you smashed up vetiver, various citrus on to a rock. Sounds strange I know, but, smells stunning to me. Perfect for anyone working in an office, or loves a green fragrance. Last for 5-6 hours and has a soft 1 to 1/2 hour projection. Please sniff this one out, I think a lot of men and women will enjoy this bad boy. this is my favorite Vetiver fragrance. Amazing forest in a bottle fragrance.

Love, love, love. This smells really close to the masterpiece Guerlain Vetiver. However, and I may get nailed to the wall for this, It smells much better. Really nice vetiver/pine note that settles down to this green clean smell. I am really impressed by this one. I have a coworker that is a tough critic of all my fragrances and she actually stopped me at work and said, "wait a minute. what do have on? That smells really good". Enough said. 9.5/10
