{"product_id":"ilk-realist-sample","title":"Ilk Realist Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eRealist is a perfume from Ilk. A note pyramid is not on file here, so this page makes no claims about how it should come across. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNo pyramid here\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record for Realist stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLet us know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe status of Realist is on request, so the sizes are not open yet. Tell us through the form on this page that you want it, without any obligation. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the vial\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe fill Realist from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur data does not say whether Ilk Realist is meant for warm or cold days, so test it in both if you can. Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day. Test it on skin and not only on paper. Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no audience on file for Realist, which leaves it open to anyone curious. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf. If Ilk is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Ilk Realist as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoosing a bottle unsmelled is a gamble, and a decant takes the gamble out of it. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this the same perfume as the full bottle?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Ilk Realist and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy does this page list no notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo note list is on record with us for Ilk Realist, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWill Realist be the same on me as on someone else?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProbably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Ilk Realist yourself before deciding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ilk","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67706878984346,"sku":"DG-ILK-REALIST-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67706879017114,"sku":"DG-ILK-REALIST-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67706879049882,"sku":"DG-ILK-REALIST-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/ilk-realist-sample.jpg?v=1791508819","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/ilk-realist-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
