Blomma Cult

I love this scent, but I can see why it’s not for everyone. Blomma Cult starts as an explosion of purple flowers, specifically lilacs and maybe a little bit of violet, before transforming into something a little powdery, musky, lipsticky. As it blooms on my skin, the cinnamon and vanilla show up and mix with the powdery purple flowers to create a scent that was best described by @NatWeb as floral coca-cola. I don’t know if it’s the patchouli influencing me, but I think Blomma Cult smells best on me when I haven’t showered in a day - it feels out of place when my skin is totally clean. Longevity and sillage are both moderate, and appropriate for the type of scent it is - it envelops without shouting. The day after wearing Blomma Cult, my clothes still smell surprisingly strongly of purple flowers. This perfume takes me back to a specific moment in my childhood, being picked up from school on a spring day by my grandmother in her 70s era station wagon that always smelled like the inside of her purse, like hairspray and wax from lipstick and powdery paper from the tiny packs of Kleenex that she hoards. I can smell the syrupy fountain coke she bought for me, and even though she just got her hair done, she lets me roll the windows down so I can smell all the blooming flowers and sunshine.

I was not frankly impressed with Room 1015s range, bar this. Extraordinary opening, your nose shoved straight into into a crop of flowers on a late spring walk. After that it calms down quickly and develops more of an earthy note which lasts the rest of the journey, a rather long journey if you will being that I could still smell it after 72 hours. Personally will be picking up a bottle next time I am in the area to prepare for spring.

This is so addictive, intoxicating, unique and versatile, I can't fathom this isn't an absolute love for everyone. The only complaint is I wish it lasted longer. If this came in extrait concentration, I would buy a full bottle in a heartbeat. Regardless, this is going on my to buy list after going through my decant in just over a week.I have close to 200 fragrances, and this one definitely stands out among the bunch.

Airy, powdery, sweet, with a soft floral heart, brought back down to earth with the cashmeran, cinnamon, & patchouli. It starts out with a powdery sweetness that might scare some people, but the dry-down definitely brings out a woodier and muskier vibe that should appeal to those who like something warmer and more “serious”. IMO it’s versatile and unique enough to make it full-bottle worthy.

What a beautifully fresh and floral fragrance! This is an absolute joy to wear in the Spring and Summer as each element that could easily be overpowering on its own is handled with perfect subtlety. Sweet musks, cinnamon, violet (not iris), cashmere and vanilla blended to perfection. Definitely unisex with a wonderfully light touch of florals and musks.
