My Perfumes and Fragrances

A dignified mix of Thai Basil, Akigalawood, and Patchouli makes this scent great for just about any situation. A lot of people say that Bois Imperial is a good substitute for Ganymede, but I don't really see it. It comes out very woody on my skin, and hits a light, almost cinnamony note by the end of its wear. For a higher-end indie perfume its price point is quite reasonable, coming in at around 89 euro for a big 100ml bottle.

Chic but perplexing. The concept behind Cyber Garden is, of course, a cyber garden. The notion of synthetic, fake greenery comes through majorly. The combination of fresh-cut-grass greeniness with harsh PVA and plastic is a bit grating and unpleasant to wear for a long time but as a conceptual piece I adore this. It really makes me feel like some sort of high-tech android or something. This scent is discontinued, so you can't find it in stores. If you're not into conceptual perfumes steer clear of CG due to the prior point-- you can't test this one in person, so you'll be blind buying.

Once I get enough money that I can justify buying this frag the world will know, because I will never stop smelling like tomatoes. This is one of my top scents of all time, because it's so, so, realistic to the smell of your hands after picking fresh tomatoes or pruning tomato plants.

A classic for good reason. This is a faithful, lovely little bottle of pure green tea smell. To me it smells exactly like a cup of iced green tea with a hint of lemon, just a bit of extra depth and sweetness. This leans a little feminine and floral for my tastes, as someone who's usually into more unisex experimental type scents, but for 20 euro at the Dublin Airport Duty-Free it was definitely worth it.
