Niche perfume samples with almond

The selection

The scent families on record: gourmand, floral and aromatic. It is listed for spring and autumn.

By family it is filed as fruity, gourmand and floral. Season on record: spring and autumn. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.

Its family tags read woody, musky and gourmand. Season on record: autumn and winter. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.

How to test them

Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.

The small size, 2, 5 or 10 ml, is meant for exactly that: a few honest wearings before anything bigger. Keep short notes per perfume; after a week the choice usually makes itself. With 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial you can find out how it behaves on your skin, at your own pace.

Questions

How were these samples chosen?

By the tags and note lists on record for each perfume. Nothing was added from memory, the order is not a ranking, and perfumes without recorded notes are described without notes.

Which sizes do the samples come in?

Every sample comes as 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial. The smallest is enough for a first impression, the larger ones for many wearings.

What is a decant?

Perfume moved from the original bottle into a smaller vial. Ours are filled by FragranceGems into glass spray vials and labelled by us, so you can wear a perfume before you decide on a bottle.
