Pleasantly surprised!
Most scents are a little too much, this one has just that right amount of flair!
United StatesNot bad, not amazing.
I was expecting amazing things after all the reviews I have read. I was left a little disappointed and glad I only bought a sampler. It smells similar to the B&M petrichor scent but better. Very mossy, green, earthy. I feel like changing my name to Radagast and hanging out with the woodland creatures. One tiny spray is enough to last all day. It’s pleasing once it dies down a bit but it’s not knock your socks off great. Definitely worth the $10 for a sampler. I wouldn’t spend $90 on the full size.
United StatesFougere Gothique - Omnibus Base; Fougere Gothique EDP
The omnibus base was extremely slick and made for a very pleasant lather. A little went a long way. The scent profile developed before my minds eye throughout the shave. I was transported back to a section hike on the Appalachian Trail. Wet undergrowth first hits you. The scent of mushrooms fades to the back allowing a mixture of floral scents to be picked up beneath a thin blanket of lingering smoke. If you are a whiskey drinker, you may be familiar with the smell of petrichor. I am thoroughly impressed.
United StatesGothique Gourmand Niche
If I could give this more stars I would. It smells like truffles freshly picked, still covered in a little bit of earthy soil. Like mushrooms marinating before being cooked to pair with steak. A lovely bit of darkness to wear when I want something more gourmand than Encre Noire. Sure, it's not cheap but two sprays lasted more than 24 hours. This stuff is going to last a long time because you don't need to put on that much for a wearing. Treat yourself. It's amazing!
United StatesGreat Smelling Scent
I would definitely recommend the scent. I'm not used to purchasing more expensive colognes (Eau de Parfum, I suppose) so I went with the sample first. My girlfriend and I ended up liking the scent so I ended up purchasing the larger bottle. If your on the fence I would say try the sample bottle first.
