Initially a bit sour, later sweet and creamy. It is not bad, but nothing extraordinary. For a creamy fruity-floral fragrance, I would rather reach for 'Meliora' by PdM.

Immediately smells of fresh sea salt and a cool sea breeze. Gentle coastal flowers and a fine, creamy coconut note unfold through body heat. It finishes warm and close to the skin with soft sandalwood. A beautiful, subtle summer fragrance.

Subtly sweet, slightly tart, somewhat earthy. Spicy and enveloping. Nothing intrusive. A pleasant, ambery fragrance.

At the start, I would have bet that there was cinnamon in it. But there isn't. My search for this year's perfume for the colder days was short and has ended with this scent. This will be the one. Absolutely brilliant. Slightly fresh at the start with a good spice. Over time, it becomes creamier and warmer. This is a fragrance for winter, fireplaces, the Advent season, etc. Super 10 points.

For me, Inspirato is a very pleasant, fresh, and clean fragrance that actually reminds me a little of a high-quality AXE shower gel – only much more luxurious and elegant. Anyone who likes the scent of being freshly showered and well-groomed will definitely get their money's worth here. The opening feels fresh, aquatic, and slightly spicy. Coriander, cinnamon, bergamot, cardamom, and lavender provide an interesting spiciness without making the fragrance feel heavy. The aquatic note in particular conveys this clean and freshly showered feeling. After about four hours, Inspirato changes noticeably on me. The tonka bean from the base emerges more strongly and gives the fragrance a softer, warmer, and slightly creamy direction. Together with musk and light woods, it feels increasingly cozy but remains well-groomed and pleasant. The longevity for me is around 6 hours, which is absolutely fine for a fresh fragrance. I find it particularly nice that it evolves over time and doesn't just stay constantly 'fresh.' Conclusion: A great fragrance for women and men if you are looking for a fresh, aquatic, and well-groomed scent with a luxurious touch. For me, Inspirato is essentially 'freshly showered – but in luxury.' I especially like the development of the tonka bean after a few hours.

Disappointed by this one. Very interesting smoky incensy vanilla start. However it becomes a skin scent almost immediately, which is kinda normal for Liis parfums, but what I don't like at all is the fact that it doesn't even take 10 minutes for the perfume to turn into a fairly generic smoky vanilla fragrance, where the frankincense all but disappeared. Still smells good, but a lot of perfumes do.

This perfume is essentially the same DNA as TdH. If you like that one, you will surely like this one. Basso feels lighter and brighter and has imo slightly better staying power than TdH. In the drydown it also feels distinctly more modern and more refined. For me, it lacks a little unique-ness but it's a good buy for anyone looking for a hot weather frag they can grab every day and can tolerate the higher pricepoint compared to the original. I'd categorize it as masculine-leaning, since it's so close to TdH.

Lovely incense that gets overshadowed by a very pleasant orange liquor. Fairly resinous, fairly expensive but good staying power and very unique. Maybe my favourite from the house.

My favourite smoky perfume I've ever tested. No birch tar, no barbeque notes, just clean hay and smoky mate. Somewhere in the background a little dry incense without becoming sharp. Fairly expensive, but haven't found anything similar since.

This is such a fun fragrance, it smells like a fresh, fruity and sweet fruit punch and brings back memories of my teenage years. My favourite from Imaginary Authors.

The fragrance is beautifully creamy. First light, then heavy. It needs to develop. Unfortunately, it only remains noticeable to oneself and projects very weakly. You have to be hugged for others to notice it. The longevity is good, however. All in all, it is a beautiful scent. Just with some compromises that one usually doesn't expect from Initio.

Unfortunately too floral for me and therefore rather overwhelming. Sillage and longevity are great.

A pleasant and seductive cherry paired with gentle vanilla and soft labdanum. The fragrance is a noble, seductive composition.

This perfume reminds me of the first warm rays of sunshine hitting the driftwood of a beach, partially still covered in snow sludge. It is phenomenal and complex, but has such a soothing and warm character. I adore it.

Dark chocolate fragrance with mystical depth. Dark chocolate seasoned with orange and saffron. Boozy and very sophisticated.

This is the most indolic floral I've ever smelled, so be aware of that. At the same time, it smells like all the florals I really love. It lasts so long, projects like crazy and it's close to perfect. I just miss a bit of patchouli to ground it, it's very heady/airy. I combine it with the Heretic Perfumes Nosferatu Bodylotion to smell like a beautiful, secluded garden after a heavy rainshower in late spring. This has to be one of my all-time favorite perfumes.

Very generic, fresh male perfume. Sadly nothing really exciting. It smells fine... meh.

The fragrance begins with a fruity-citrusy opening. Then the vanilla joins in. Sugar water with red berries. A gourmand masterpiece.
