Stardust

Stardust by Recreation is a slightly brighter, sparkly boho scent. I actually wore this one for my wedding day. Very crowd friendly, not too in your face or overtly sexy. It smells like a bouquet of flowers, with hints of citrus, white florals, and dries down to a soft musky scent. I like wearing it when Im feeling a bit anxious because it grounds me without being over the top. Good value for money, and I appreciate the travel sizes to have in my handbag.

I keep coming back to this perfume. Ok at first it smells a bit salad dressing clinatro. But once it drys down you get the glorious sandalwood and orris skin scent that I can't explain. I believe that this will be my signature scent. I have kept coming back since 2022. So mad at myself for letting it go.

Smells like men's cologne to my nose. Very reminiscent of late 1990, early 2000; a bus filled with Axe body spray that you cannot get away from.

The name Stardust is beautiful, unfortunately that is about the only beautiful thing about this fragrance. It smells very generic with an aggressive cleanliness like a masculine shower gel, the 20 in 1 thing, shampoo, dish soap, motor oil substitute, weed killer. Kills sinusses as well.

MISLEADING-NOT NATURAL. I was excited to support a natural perfume brand and ordered the discovery set. They generally smell like what you'd expect from any commercial perfume brand and they're not bad. However, all the marketing gear the consumer up for some absolutely gorgeous natural botanical fragrances, and what a serious let down it was when I could smell copious amounts of synthetic materials. I'm not against synthetics (if biodegradable ones), these fragrances are just not like the way the marketing suggests! The ingredient lists all the botanical names of plants supposedly in the fragrance, which would make you think the whole thing is natural. Unfortunately this is simply NOT TRUE. Most consumers just wouldn't have any idea what a genuinely natural perfume smells like and can only go by the marketing/ ingredient list from the brand. Unfortunately for the trained nose, it is quite obvious that these are not natural fragrances, they may have some naturals in there but the majority of these formulas are made up by a back bone structure of synthetics. The fragrance price of these also does not reflect a genuine natural fragrance, the price of such precious naturals is astronomical! Furthermore, some of the naturals stated in the other fragrances, such as gardenia are actually impossible to obtain at a commercial level. Genuine vanilla is an incredibly expensive material to work with in natural perfumery and is almost always substituted with vanillin which can be natural so I would suspect this has been used and not Tahitian vanilla tincture or absolute- that's only a guess but highly likely. My pet-hate is lack of transparency, why avoid misleading customers by listing only the botanical names in the ingredient list. Where it says blend of 'nature-identicals' this is a whole heap of synthetics! Honesty is my policy and it's obvious that this brand does not match that same ethos. This brand ruins it for truly natural brands out there trying to do good things.

Stardust is the clean kind of sexy. Very wearable, well blended, not very unique as a scent. The most remarkable thing about this is that it’s clean/natural. The scent profile is pretty standard for male oriented cologne. If you’re looking for one without hormone disrupters you found it.

💯 men’s cologne to my nose. It’s SO STRONG and the notes are VERY masculine. I gave it to my husband.

Not bad, i get a bit of orris, definitely more masculine than I would usually wear.
