14 perfumes by Hemcael are listed with us as samples. Here are 8 of them, each with the data that is on record for it. We do not rank them, because the same perfume wears differently on every skin.
The selection
Hemcael Otium
Hemcael Otium, by Hemcael, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Give it time to settle before you judge it.
Hemcael Abel
Hemcael also has Hemcael Abel. We have no pyramid on file for it. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.
Hemcael Visio
Hemcael Visio by Hemcael: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.
Hemcael Sacrae
Hemcael also has Hemcael Sacrae. We have no pyramid on file for it. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
Hemcael Raris
Hemcael Raris by Hemcael: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.
Hemcael Deos
Hemcael also has Hemcael Deos. We have no pyramid on file for it. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
Hemcael Glacialis
Hemcael Glacialis, by Hemcael, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume.
Hemcael Aurum
For Hemcael Aurum from Hemcael we hold no notes; wear it and judge. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
Also in this selection: Hemcael Caelum, Hemcael Amantes, Hemcael Adorem, Hemcael Somnium, Hemcael Spiritus, Hemcael Horruit.
How to test them
Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Start light; you can always add a spray on the next wearing. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
Trying it as a sample first means your decision rests on wearing it, not on a description. Keep short notes per perfume; after a week the choice usually makes itself. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing.

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.
