One molecule, a clean woody-musky skin scent
Not a Perfume by Juliette Has a Gun is built on one ingredient only: cetalox, a molecule normally used as a base note, which the brand lists at the top, in the heart and at the base. Romano Ricci created this Eau de Parfum in 2010. A scent made of a single molecule behaves differently on every skin, which makes a 10 ml decant a smart first step.

How it unfolds
-
Cetalox from the first spray
There is no pyramid to follow, so what you smell at the start is already the whole idea. Cetalox is clean, woody and slightly ambery, and the brand describes the perfume as skin-like. On a sample you will notice quickly whether the molecule reads strongly or faintly on you.
-
Blending with your own skin
The brand says the scent blends with the wearer's own skin, so the heart is largely about you rather than the bottle. Two people can wear the same decant and describe different results. That is why testing it on your own skin for a few days is worth more than any description.
-
A booster for other perfumes
The brand also sells it as a booster under other perfumes, adding a woody, musky, ambery layer. A sample is a practical way to test this too: wear it on its own one day, and layer it under a perfume you already own another day, to see which use you prefer.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
Wear the decant alone on clean skin first, on a day without other scents around, so you can follow how it changes on you. Then, on another day, try it under a perfume you already like and compare. Spring and autumn suit it, and an office or a quiet day at home is a fair setting.
Who it is for
For people who like minimal, clean, skin-close scents and are curious about perfumes built on a single ingredient. It is unisex and suits daily wear and work. It also appeals to anyone who wants to add a woody-musky base to another perfume without buying a second full bottle.
Why try Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume as a sample first
A one-molecule scent is hard to judge from a description, since it depends heavily on the wearer. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original 100 ml bottle and labelled by us, so you can see how it behaves on you. It is not a brand sample, and Juliette Has a Gun is not involved.

About Juliette Has a Gun
Juliette Has a Gun imagines Shakespeare's Juliet in the twenty-first century, armed, with perfume as her weapon. Romano Ricci created the Paris house and steers it as artistic director, and he writes his formulas short: often one note per level, in one case a single ingredient from top to base. Perfumes this minimal behave differently on every skin, so a 10 ml decant worn for a few days tells you more than any description.
- Created by Romano Ricci, great-grandson of Nina Ricci and the house's artistic director
- Born in France, between Paris and Grasse, as the brand puts it
- The name: Shakespeare's Juliet today, with perfume as her weapon of seduction

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
