I did it. I bought a full bottle of Lime, Gardenia & Benzoin from Dame Perfumery using my $18 discount from my Olfactif subscription. The original price is $65 for a full 100 ml bottle. The perfumer, Jeffrey Dame, sent it beautifully packaged and with a generous amount of samples from his line. These are brief first impressions of the samples, by no means comprehensive.
Passion Fruit, Orange Blossom & Vetiver: A softer vertiver that I was just asking recommendations for, how marvelous! The passion fruit faintly sweetens the white orange blossoms and green vetiver. It's a tropical delight on my skin.
Herb Man Cologne: Created for men, but I enjoyed wearing it very much. It smelled like sage feels, soft green and tactile.
Black Flower Mexican Vanilla: Dark and fuzzy like cuddling an ebony bunny. Vanilla and woods mixture that embodies slight powdery facets and and warmth.
Dark Horse: Smooth sweet woods. Easy to wear and gender neutral. I do wish it would linger a tad longer and stronger but nice as a "come close to me" scent.
Desert Rose: A beautiful rose fragrance that has some chewy juiciness to it. The dry down features a lovely musk filled pink rose. I can see myself purchasing a full bottle.
If you mail Jeffrey a postcard with your address on it, you can request a free sample. He has many beautiful sounding three note perfumes that I am wanting to try: Mandarin, Neroli & Cedar, Peach Blossom, Violet & Vanilla? Yum! They sound perfect for summer.
Have you found a new fragrance to love lately?

ReplyDeleteThank you kindly. I sincerely apologize for misspelling your name at first. I hope you will forgive me. I have been wearing this beauty for days straight and that is a rarity for me. I look forward to exploring your lovely line. They are immensely wearable. Perfume for all! Cheers!
