A no-B.S. curation of the best discovery sets to take a chance on, from Pearfat to Jorum to Maya Njie. Just jump in—the water's warm (and smells reallllly good).
I fell down a fragrance rabbit hole thanks to the Molly Young piece about the mad perfumer of Parma. If you have not read, I highly recommend. This piece was truly thoughtful and thorough. 👏🏻
Thank you for this! I didn't realize how much I wanted to know your thoughts and recommendations on fragrance, but based on how original and clever your fashion taste is, I am not surprised. Can't wait to discover some (all, if my wallet would allow) of these.
I found this post while looking for reviews of The Point! I ordered it along with some other marine note perfumes and this one was the weirdest in a good way.
This is one of the first beauty-ish related posts I've really read and reveled in on Substack! Love love love your comments on the accessibility of scent. Cheers!
Shitttt clue and quartana sets sound so up my alley, might be making some frivolous purchases!!! Big fan of sample sets, I do not identify as a “signature scent” human (I contain multitudes!!) and also love layering too much, so this is deeply compelling. Such a good roundup ty ty

Morel Map by Clue is UNREAL and I haven’t been to get my hands on a bottle. I think about it regularly
This is such an extensive list! So many I want to try. I smelled thumbsucker at dobbin street and it reminded me of the top of a baby’s head haha

I didn't know about any of this and now I'm obsessed. Snif was the most niche I'd ever heard of.
