At Gump's in San Francisco:
Floris
Seringa
(1992)
Douglas Cope
Top Notes: Bergamot, Petitgrain, Mandarin, Orange
Middle Notes: Rose, Ylang-Ylang, Lily
Base Notes: Jasmine, Tuberose, Amber, Oakmoss
The only thing this lacks to be a true chypre is patchouli in the base. Who knows? Maybe they just forgot to list it. It smells like a very nice floral chypre to me, so I popped for it.

Class in a bottle
Steam Aoud by Montale - yes it does smell like steam infused with rose and oud.
Isos by Farmacia ss. Annunziata - black pepper guaiac wood scent - Similar to Navegar in smell but deeper, more mysterious. I like this house!
Bois du Turquie - I sprung for a bottle of this because it is an incense that highlights my favorite notes - orange, incense, patchouli, sandalwood, and I am not sure how much longer anything from MPG will be on the market, and Sculpture of the Soul's review of it was very convincing. But mostly it just smells good - kind of sweeps you away.

No. 06 Eau Frappée by IUNX
A light lemon fragrance. A bit on the sweet side, but not cloying.
Also bought Pulp & Umbrella Pine candles, which are very good.
The Pine is an incense-y pine & pulp is a very green fruity fragrance
- not so sweet.![]()

Both very nice. I had a bit of a struggle with the Tom Fords between Arabian Wood and Italian Cypress, but the chypré character of the former won the day...
