Keemun Eau de Parfum

First, the great news. This has NO annoying or piercing aromachemicals that blot out almost every other note! Will someone shout hallelujah! I really like this one. I thought it smelled like Remember Me by Jovoy, which I have, so I put Keemun all over my arms, and Remember Me only in a little spot on both arms. Remember Me is very citrusy, bright, and definitely milky. It's 'higher' to me, but not high pitched. Do you know what I mean? Keemun is much more warm and warming. More of a Fall/Winter scent to me. But it is not heavy. It doesn't have great sillage, but it does last for hours and hours. I have to put my nose to my arm to smell it though. This smells more 'lower' on the scale, which is a great thing to me. I wish to leave Keemun exactly as it is, as it's beautiful and I'd want a full bottle, except I wish for the sillage of Remember Me to get my money's worth. Edit: I bought the full bottle and am so glad I did.

Keemun is the kind of fragrance that truly wows you. I received it along with 20+ other samples that weren't speaking to me — then I smelled this. It was immediately full bottle worthy from the very first sniff and first wear. It’s smooth, rounded, cozy, and still incredibly sophisticated. This scent captures everything I want in a fragrance — black tea, iris, incense, rum, cacao, a soft fluffy musk, mate, and bergamot. The way these notes come together feels like a perfectly orchestrated symphony. It’s a dream for tea lovers. The opening is beautiful, and the dry down is even better on my skin. This is a true masterpiece. Gris Charnel has been in my Top 10 for life because of that black tea and iris combination, but this might just dethrone it. I absolutely NEED a full bottle.

#1525 in my "Tour de Fragrance" Got this as a decant. This is a nice scent for intimate wear. A truly unique note combination that I really like and for which I can find no equivalents. For tea lovers. But I'd categorize it as "huggable." If they aren't hugging you they probably will not notice it. It's really not a good potency EDP. Detectable six inches to a foot. You'd definitely respray after several hours. It's got a $285 price tag. If it had more staying power and was more aromatic, there still would be a few hundred scents I'd buy first at that price. Something along this line you men might consider, especially if you long for the return of Gucci "Pour Homme II" as I do, is Penhaligon "Legacy of Petra." Myrrh, tea, bergamot, wood, lot of nice and unique notes, but available for $115.

Bergamot tea with a twist from guaiac wood and incense.for me it's unique freshies to add in my collection. I think Welton London is underrated, they have few gems in there.love it

I am not sure I get tea. It naturally has a honeyed, resinous, slightly aromatic warmth. It reads almost like sweet vanilla with cool flower but with added warmness.
