Doux Ennui

The reviews on this perfumes are obviously made by bots or by people who have not had the chance to smell this release by THoO. I respect this house, but ultimately after smelling ALL of them, I only acquired Guilty Crush (FB worthy) and Wabisabi (5 mL sample) to my collection. I had reserved expectations for Doux Ennui because of that, but gosh let me tell you how wrong I was! This is a long lasting, ambery, cozy, jammy, a tad salty fragrance that is perfect for colder weather. It makes me think of a toasted brioche patisserie lathered with apricot jam and salter butter. It is not too sweet, thankfully not agrume forward since I do not like that, and I believe the lingering salty accord contributes a lot to balancing this fragrance. The musky, ambery base makes it last long as well. I wouldn't say it has an enormous sillage, but enough for people beside you to notice your scent. It performs well too -- I put it and my top still smelled of Doux Ennui the following days. I recommend. Don't take this low score into consideration. Sample this and hopefully you'll have a new fall/winter fragrance to add to your collection!

absolutely adore this scent! It was a blind buy because the notes sounded exactly like my vibe jammy, orangey, buttery and it totally delivers on that front. The scent profile is spot-on it genuinely smells like you’ve just had a warm, flaky croissant with fresh orange marmalade.That said, I’m really disappointed by the projection and longevity, especially considering the price. For how beautiful it smells, I just wish it lasted longer and filled the room a bit more. Still, if you want to smell like cozy breakfast-in-Paris perfection, this is it.

OMG, this perfume is magic in a bottle! I have been testing this for a few days and so far this is one of my absolute favourites now. Easy to wear, not super overwhelming with the sweetness ( as I anticipated it to be ), just the right amount. I am smelling everything in this perfume, but the marmalade note, but it still feels like a French breakfast on an autumn morning. The kind of scent that just makes you happy no matter what. :)

Oh God! all that came to my mind while seeing the notes was: A chilly beautiful autumn morning in Paris!

Upon first spritz I thought “hmm there is something familiar about this” and as it dried down I realised... this is a straight Tom Ford Bitter Peach dupe. Perhaps a bit more buttery but honestly it smells almost identical to all the perfumes that have come out to be like BP. I understand that scent really changed the game for fruity perfumes but this is just too close for comfort for me. What a shame, I wouldn’t expect a move like this from this house, I think it’s a bit tacky.
