Cedar meets Vetiver: try it as a decant
Here Reef Force, a perfume, is listed as a sample of 2, 5 or 10 ml. Its listing names Cedar and Vetiver. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.

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!
On the skin
For Reef Force, FragranceGems names Cedar and Vetiver. No order is recorded, which means the sample is the way to find out what comes first and what remains. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
Reef Force is classified as woody. If those families usually work for you, a sample confirms it; if they usually do not, it may still surprise you. FragranceGems rates its strength as strong. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
What you get is Force in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
On record, Force is a perfume for autumn and winter. Try it then first, and in different weather afterwards. On record it fits everyday wear and work. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.
On record, Force is listed for everyone (unisex). If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own. A label like that is a hint, not a rule: wear what suits you. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf.
You learn more from three wearings of Reef Force than from thirty opinions about it. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Reef is not involved, and it is not an official brand sample. Should it turn out to be yours, the full bottle is in the FragranceGems range.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands.

No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Force from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
FragranceGems lists it for autumn and winter. That is a guide, not a rule: with a decant you can try it in other weather and see whether it still works for you.
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.
The brand
42 perfumes by Reef: that is our current list of samples from this house. The samples are our own decants: 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial, filled from the original bottle and labelled by us. You find Reef among the Arabic perfume samples. Trying two or three of them side by side shows what the house is about on your own skin.

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.
