I own far too many scents, but thought I would try out pockets scents after hearing about them from frag- mental. Bought a discovery set which included purple gourmand, bondi man and bloodaxe. They do not disappoint, cracking value.
Hi John, thanks for taking the time and trouble to leave a review.
The Discovery Sets are a good way to explore what we can offer at a good price-point.
You did chose well, a nice variety of scents, Purple Gourmand is our own creation, not an 'inspired by' perfume, it gets wonderful reviews, Bloodaxe was relaunched in response to demand from past buyers and Bondi Man is a tribute to Beach Hut Man, it too gets good reviews.
We're happy the Discovery Set met your expectations, welcome on board.
I absolutely love this. It’s rich, warm and has a juicy/sparkly quality from the pear. For me, I don’t get much of a coffee note but the jasmine, pear and ambergris are the standout notes imo. I have worn this at work and get multiple comments on how lovely I smell. Silage isn’t huge on me but I believe it does leave a small trail. I have layered this with kayali vanilla which smells absolutely delicious. I have also layered this with Molecule 01 which has never failed to get me compliments.
Thanks for your review Bethany, it's interesting that you layered it.
Purple Gourmand is our own creation and we're very proud of it.
Coffee and coconut. What’s not to like? Reminds me of being on holiday. It kinda reminds me of Khamara . The newer one with coffee.
The prompt delivery and quality of product are second to none.
The only reason I marked it down a star is on my skin I don’t get the darker dry down I hoped for.
Still listening to reviews on YouTube etc I’m the only one.
Overall though another hit.
Well done Matt and team.
One of the best fragrances I own in a pretty large and diverse collection. This smells elegant, interesting, unique and has real lasting power. One of the best gourmand fragrances out there in my opinion, without ever managing to be too cloying or overly sweet. Hits that unisex spot perfectly. As with all Pocket Scents fragrances though, smells super high quality and the value for money is unreal. Highly recommend.
This is not my usual style of scent but having received a sample in another order I had to go for a purchase. It’s very powerful, with a heady mix of sweet fruit and caramel, but smells completely natural and perfectly balanced. I took it away with me for a holiday as it feels made for that kind of dressed up with somewhere to go situation rather than as daily wear in the office. Unless your office is a five star hotel in the Caribbean!
