{"product_id":"reef-21-sample","title":"Reef 21 Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003e21 is a perfume from Reef. Berries, Cedar and Patchouli: those are the notes FragranceGems records for it. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBerries, Cedar, Patchouli\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNotes, as recorded\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe recorded notes of Reef 21 are Berries, Cedar and Patchouli. Nothing on record says which of them opens, so we do not claim it. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFresh and woody: that is how FragranceGems classifies Reef 21. It is a starting point for choosing, nothing more. Its strength is listed as strong. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat a decant is\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get is 21 in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Keep the vial away from heat and direct sunlight, as you would a full bottle. 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\u003eOn record, 21 is a perfume for summer, autumn and winter. Try it then first, and in different weather afterwards. FragranceGems files it under everyday wear, evenings and work. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFragranceGems files 21 as a perfume for everyone (unisex). People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag. A label like that is a hint, not a rule: wear what suits you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Reef 21 as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a decant you find out in a week what a description cannot tell you in a page. Filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle, labelled by us: a decant, not an official brand sample. We are not affiliated with Reef. And if 21 wins you over, FragranceGems carries the full bottle.\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 Reef 21 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\u003eIs 21 for men or for women?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragranceGems lists it for everyone (unisex). In practice a perfume suits whoever enjoys wearing it, and a sample is the simplest way to find out whether that is you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow do I test 21 properly?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reef","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67706513424538,"sku":"DG-REE-21-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67706513457306,"sku":"DG-REE-21-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67706513490074,"sku":"DG-REE-21-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/reef-21-sample.jpg?v=1791507992","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/reef-21-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
