La Tsarine

For those who seek an explicit, down right feral and dirty perfume - this is possibly my holy grail of fragrances that fall under the 'body odor / sex' smell category. Compared to some of the more well known perfumes in this group, I think this offering from Senyoko is a bit of a hidden gem. I rarely see it included on such lists and conversations online when discussing perfumes that conjure up those sexual scents. This is an animalic floral lovers wet dream! To be honest, this smells like your lovers intimate areas...that sweet enticing musk and honeyed aroma which emanates from one another's warm bodies after sex. This scent quite literally turns me on. How does this magic work? For a perfume to have such a powerful control over my body and mind, in which it drives lust within myself, is nothing short of remarkable. Obviously, I had to own a bottle. I enjoy this at night, as well as during the day when I am alone. Sometimes, I like to layer it with other florals, especially white florals, where it really dirties them up in the most spectacular way. When I want to feel particularly like I'm positively radiating sexuality then I layer it with 'Lust' from lush. This combination is almost psychedelic! I fully agree with the review below... this scent does make my pupils dilate. A total love ❤️

Good LORD this is naughty. Many a fragrance has been described as smelling like sex, perhaps more metaphorically than literally, but this tops them all; it is absolute unapologetic filth. I sort of love it?? I’m getting crisp latex trousers, black leather straps, all recently disinfected after heavy use. But a hint of what they’ve been through remains, that sweet, sour tinge of sweat and intimate bodily fluids, it sounds disgusting but absolutely compels the animal within. The animalics and cumin are very much forefront, and yet, blended to perfection. They are smooth and balanced, not sharp or cloying. When I first sprayed this I thought, this is unwearable. As it’s settled, I now want a bottle. This is very much in the same vein as Alexander McQueen’s Kingdom, and Theo Fennell’s Scent, as the sweaty aspect is very similar. If you like a slutty perfume, this is for you.

This is the most complex and unique perfume that has joined my small museum-sized collection and I can't stop trying to unlock all its mysteries. You think you know your skin chemistry and the notes that pair well or create visions to other times and places then you encounter those rare blends like Senyokô's La Tsarine and you quickly realize there are still fragrances out there that strike the senses with a cascading gamut of colours, rich tableaus and somehow tap into your secret self that you fear to unleash. La Tsarine is that liberation, this is raw hedonism with honeyed leather, spicy resin-laced fruit and woods along a tussey of vintage florals tucked just so in the folds of rumpled sheets and sweat dampened silks. La Tsarine isn't your everyday type of perfume, she calls for the night and a special taste.

Super interesting fragrance. This is simultaneously soapy/clean (which I usually hate) and dead dirty (which I usually love); a mix of florals and an amplified unwashed skin smell. They really hit the nail right on the head with this one, it truly is giving 18th century royal sex addict in a bottle. I sprayed it on before bed and 8 hours later it is still going. At first it is perfectly balanced between the clean and dirty elements, and towards the end the dirtier notes become more prominent. Saying the projection isn’t strong would be an understatement, but I think that this is a feature and not a bug—it makes perfect sense with the perfume’s concept that this is more of an intimate skin scent, and it wouldn’t be as nice if it was more “in your face”.

I bought this on a whim and it quickly became my favourite fragrance in my collection. It's a really sexy, stanky vintage style floral. It gets the mix of pretty florals, indoles, woodsy notes, and beastly animalics just right in my opinion. Smells like dirty knickers in the best possible way. I always feel really sexy when I wear this. Highly recommended if you like animalic florals. I'm a big fan of Euan McCall as a nose, and the other Senyoko perfumes are also great, if a bit on the pricey side. I'm looking forward to sampling the Jorum fragrances also.
