Dawn Spencer Hurwitz is a genius. The only reason she isn't a worshipped Niche Parfumiste in the line of By Kilian, etc. is that she's a woman, she doesn't charge a ton, and for years she worked...

This is a lovely vanilla-cream scent that stays close to the skin. It is a gourmand for sure, but it smells like a perfume, not a dessert. The vanilla is pure and woody, and the sweetness comes...

Based on an aged oil sample, I love this! Warm and cozy, like Christmas baked goods being baked for you . Vanilla, but in an aged wooden cask. And there's a musk base I find unique to DSH

Tuberose isn't even an identifiable note, nor is DSH's Winter particularly floral. It smells like a softer, warmer, more subtle Youth Dew. I'm not a 'Dude hater; sometimes I positively crave the...

I'm on my second dram of this and love it. But I also love Cardamom and the Kylphi notes are just enough for this scent to be well rounded. I don't just get the cardamom note on my skin, but...

Nope. The hunt for the best gardenia continues and this one didn't even come close. Very plasticky and artificial-smelling to me - more like a cleaning product than a flower.

Dawn Spencer Hurwitz truly captures the olfactory equivalent of the taste of chocolat with pepper. While I find peppered chocolat very decadent and yummy, I find this scent even more so. I want to...

I adore this. It is a masculine-edged herbal, but it's so fresh and crisp, woody and bright that I sniff it compulsively. Love it.

I love grapefruit scents--until they get on my skin. Then they turn sharp and weird. Dawn Spencer Hurwitz Pamplemousse is better in this regard. It's wearable, but it still turns a little sharp,...

To be honest, you have to be in the mood to smell like an upscale cleansing cream or spa steam, rather than traditionally perfumed to enjoy this. It started w/ mint and balsam fir, then almost...

Celestial Smoke is patchouli, sandalwood, olibanum, and Egyptian musk, or those are what my nose found anyway. There might be just a touch of rose as well. It smelled nothing like lavatory...
