Fortius, tried on skin before you decide
Soma Parfums makes Fortius, a perfume you can get to know here in a small vial. What it contains is not on record with us, so the description stops at the facts we have. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves.

On the skin
We have the name and the house of Fortius, not its notes. Instead of copying a list from somewhere, we leave that part empty. Give it time to settle before you judge it. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.
For now, Soma Parfums Fortius can only be asked for. The form on this page records your interest in this perfume, and we make no promise about timing. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.
For this sample, FragranceGems takes Fortius from the original bottle and fills a glass spray vial with it. The label on the vial is ours. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test.
Testing it
There is no recorded season for Fortius. Begin on an ordinary day and take it from there. Test it on skin and not only on paper. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week.
There is no audience on file for Fortius, which leaves it open to anyone curious. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag.
The same perfume can be a favourite on one person and a miss on the next, which is the whole case for testing Fortius first. To be clear, this is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants it from the original bottle and puts its own label on the vial; Soma Parfums plays no role.

Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Soma Parfums Fortius 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.
No note list is on record with us for Soma Parfums Fortius, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
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
16 perfumes by Soma Parfums: 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 Soma Parfums among the niche 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.
