Reef 43 Sample
Cedar on record, the rest on your skin
Here Reef 43, a perfume, is listed as a sample of 2, 5 or 10 ml. On paper it is built around Cedar and Leather. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.

How it unfolds
-
What the listing names
For Reef 43, FragranceGems names Cedar and Leather. No order is recorded, which means the sample is the way to find out what comes first and what remains. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.
-
Scent family
As a family, FragranceGems gives oriental and woody for Reef 43. Read that as a rough direction before you try it. Its strength is listed as strong. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
-
How the sample is made
A decant is perfume poured over from the original bottle into a smaller one. For 43 that means a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our label on it. Pick the small vial if you only want to know whether you like it, and a larger one if you want to live with it for a while.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
The season tags for Reef 43 say autumn and winter. Use that as a starting point for your first wearing. FragranceGems files it under evenings and special occasions. Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day.
Who it is for
According to FragranceGems, 43 is for everyone (unisex). Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own.
Why try Reef 43 as a sample first
A sample of 43 answers the two things that matter: whether you like it, and whether you still like it on the fifth wearing. 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. And if 43 wins you over, FragranceGems carries the full bottle.

Frequently asked
What does the sample look like?
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply 43 the way you normally would.
Why are the notes not split into top, heart and base?
Because the record for Reef 43 gives one flat list: Cedar and Leather. We print notes exactly as recorded and never sort them into a pyramid ourselves.
How do I test 43 properly?
Spray 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.

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.
