Absolutely love this one. It opens with almond biscotti dipped in mocha, and dries down to the vintage cigar box your favorite fling kept his black and milds in. It’s smoky, it’s soft, it’s pretty, it lasts for hours. Gorgeous.

It does smell a lot like LDBS, and I have a full bottle of Perdizione by Nobile 1942, which this fragrance also smells like. Regardless, it's gorgeous.and it lasts forever. I still smell it on clothes 12 hours later.

I knew I was going to like this before I even tried it, and I am indeed obsessed with it and just ordered a 30mL bottle. There is something really nostalgic about it. The scent evolves so much from the first sprays to the dry down. It really takes you on a journey. I ordered a sample set, and so far I love like 5/7 samples I have tried. And I think the other two could grow on me. They're all very original, and the ingredients smell really natural and not synthetic at all. Because of how natural and artisanal the fragrances smell, I was so shocked that the longevity is so good.

Le Cirque is very versatile, but something that can honestly be worn as a signature scent, and that's why I wish the bottles came in bigger sizes. I would have immediately gotten 100mL of this. I'm so excited about this new house! Brava !

This reminds me vaguely of Memoir by Amouage, one of my all time favorite fragrances. It is so addictive, definitely can be worn by women or men. Sugarwood is a perfect name for this perfume - it's sweet and woody. Super unique ! Very long lasting.

Ordered a 10 mil and immediately realized that this was a dupe for Dama Bianca. It's a very good dupe but I wish I would have known that because I already own the original. If you don't want to spend the money on the original then I recommend this as a good alternative.

I ordered a discovery set because I am very picky about my perfume. I have to say, every fragrance I received is 100% top notch. I love every single one of them. I would rather order these than the $300-$500 perfumes I've sampled in stores.

This is an interesting fragrance that is very sweet, however that hint of sandalwood brings it into unisex territory for any person who wants to smell like a sexy violet marshmallow. It’s both a comforting and mysterious scent. I really love it!

Crystal the owner sent me a discovery kit, and she gained a new customer by taking a chance. I bought the full size of Cloudbreath because I absolutely fell in love with it in the discovery kit. All the others were beautiful, but more unisex, whereas cloudbreath is MUCH more feminine and thats what i look for in a fragrance. Im a collector and only have maybe three unisex fragrances, so Cloudbreath was the only one that was sttaight feminine and i adore it! Im such a sucker for iris, violets, and any purple flowers, so when you combine iris, candied violets, malt, and musk you get Cloudbreath. It’s absolutely beautiful and angelic. This was the firsy actual feminine fragrance from the brand that i smelled, so hopefully i find some more feminine leaning so i can add them to my collection as well. This is an awesome indie brand that needs more recognition for sure! Cloudbreath is my new baby!!

Crystal the owner was kind enough to send me a discovery set, and I fell head over heels in LOVE with Cloudbreath! I’m such a sucker for Iris, violet, powdery notes ect. Cloudbreath checks all of those boxes for me! I had to buy a bottle I loved it so much lol. I am a proud owner of Cloudbreath as we speak and I just love it so much!! It’s such an angelic fragrance. With candied violets, iris, malt, and musk this is such a beautiful cloud of femininity that I’m obsessed with! I had to ask my husband if he approved, and he really enjoys it on me, so I’m so glad I was able to get me a bottle and also support a small business who took a chance on me with their discovery kit. More brands should definitely take notes. Des Animaux did it the right way, and now they have a customer for life!

*CORDIAL* by maison de animaux is....in a word....*delicioso*. I'm not sure I detect *cognac* (there's certainly no booziness) but I'm sure it's in there. I do smell cinnamon (which I love) + caramel + fruitness + nutiness + warmth. It feels like it'd be most appropriate in fall + winter but...I'd wear it whenever I want to simply smell this good. I bought three 10ml vials anticipating I'd give two away. I'm thinking I'm holding on to all three. This is a beauty. 10/10.

On my skin this delicious gourmand of a fragrance leans perfectly unisex and is utterly delicious!

It’s not often I buy a discovery set and end up loving them all enough to wear them, but that’s absolutely the case with these. I love them all, it’s honestly going to be a struggle to pick just one to upgrade to a full bottle. (But tomboy really has my heart so far) And to make things even harder, they threw in two extra which were also both so beautiful. The intention in these fragrances is clear. They each take you on a nuanced journey. Not a boring linear single note in the bunch.

Words I would use to describe this scent: dark, delicious, sinful. This gives me the vibes of an exclusive speakeasy. Sweet vanilla-apple from the dancers’ perfume that has settled into their skin throughout the night, spicy cinnamon-musk clinging to the lapels of the gentlemen in attendance, the dusty aged wood smell of the hidden underground bar, and a rich booziness permeating the air. Starts with a blast of cinnamon and settles down into the woodsier notes, with a strong thread of boozy vanilla linking everything together. Cinnamon and I don’t get along historically so I was skeptical at first, but I fell in love with the dry down. This is a scent with sex appeal.

Every time I think I have found the one perfume that I love from MDA, I get a sample that I just have to get the full bottle of. Now I have five bottles that are all my favorites. Sugarwood is delicious. Its smoky, woody but also sweet. I suppose that's what the name implies. At first spray it kind of smells like root beer to me. Once it dries down I get more of the smoky, woody notes. It's beautiful and I love it. Oh, and it lasts too. I sprayed it on a sweater, washed/ dried said sweater and I could STILL smell it!

Received this as a free sample in my order and LOVED it. When smelling on my skin, it definitely takes me off to a tropic place. Sweet but not overly feminine. Will be purchasing a bottle soon.
