You MUST try Indecent cherry! Personally, a better and longer lasting take on cherry than TFs. As a Korean resident and a fragnerd, this is one and only true local niche house (99% of Korean fragrance brands are merely copy cats of big name brands best sellers), with standout originality in the visuals and scents.
Just came back from Seoul and couldn’t leave without indecent cherry and dirty rice. Indecent cherry blew me away and I normally don’t like fruity scents. It’s smells mouthwateringly good.
I had a chance to visit their flagship store in Seoul, Korea. The names of these fragrances turned out to be the most modest and prudish thing compared to the other things within that store 🔥 Full of very suggestive pottery and drawings and very explicit. The brand seems to be all about "being naughty and crossing lines and boundaries as an adult," and that translated into being very sex-forward concepts. Super bold house on the market and one of the standout niche houses from South Korea 🇰🇷🇰🇷
Mud, Drunk Saffron, and Dirty Rice were my favorites of the sample set I got. I feel like I definitely need to get full bottles of Mud and Dirty Rice, and I absolutely need to smell the rest of this house's fragrances.
The beauty market is blowing up with the Korean make up, I am not surprised they are coming in with some amazing fragrances too. The rice scent sounds a good contender, I don't know if I want to smell like mud but the notes sound exceptional. It could work 😃
I tried the cherry rum horn to stand out. It smells exactly like a fruity maraschino cherry and I also have the not a vanilla it’s not your typical sugary sweet vanilla. It has a little bit of green and what he does to it. I love it it’s a perfect vanilla for spring early summer.
I have the Smokin gun and it was my Winter perfume 2022/23. Definitively my favourite. My wife has the Dirty Rice. One of the greatest Brands i discovered in the last year.
Hi Sebastian! I sampled the same + Fig porn & Not Vanilla. I liked the fig porn (smells like a shampoo for me lol) and Mud. But honestly, I expected more boldness with these extravagant names. I found out that almost all perfumes if this house aren’t long lasting and are probably more on the light, transparent side. I like more bold, long lasting perfumes…
Nobody talks about this brand in Korea though - among the fragrance community: crickets. Same for Elorea too. Interesting how these Korean brands are catching on faster in the US than than their country or origin/inspiration.
I just tried Dirty Rice, nice fragrance but I want to try more from the brand. Love the bottles and the branding in general , the names are good too. Thanks for the review Sebastian!!!
I have sampled Unholy Oud and Hinoki Shower. Unholy Oud felt something like the "vanilla cake musk" from Musc Ravageur layered with slightly medicinal rose, maybe Oud Ispahan. Definitely different from basic oud + rose combo, however only OK. Sample, but not blind buy worthy. Hinoki shower is what the name suggest. Slightly wet, camphor hinoki woods. Really fresh, classic woodsy scent. I did not find it to be that original tbh. However if fresh green woods is a new thing for you, this might be interesting scent for sample. My thoughts. Interesting brand, need to sample more. However I think that the names let to think something more than the actual fragrances are.
These sound interesting but I get the sense that they really have to be sampled. Smoking Gun is interesting to me. I don’t always like boozy or Smokey fragrances but when they work, they are wonderful
I got my nose on Drunk Saffron and you are right about the first sniff. It smelled like some type of bug spray but the dry down is gorgeous. I got my eye on Mud next.
I'm interested to try these. Smokin' Gun sounds astounding to me. I love smoke and booziness in a fragrance and it seems to tick all the right boxes for me.
Thanks for another great review. I got the sample pack from Lucky Scent ( wish I had remembered your code). All the scents are interesting and worth a smell. I also feel that the names don’t always live up to the scent that being said I do enjoy Dirty Rice and Indecent Cherry since the are different than what I have in my collection.
I was interested in these when they first launched, but the branding is a real “turnoff” for me. Really tired of overtly sexual marketing, just feels like a ploy for dollars from a younger, unrefined audience.
So I’m in Portugal and just learned about this brand at a niche perfumery I immediately knew I NEEDED drunk saffron after smelling it on my skin...agreed with your thoughts on the opening, you have to let it breath same issue with me for The Moon by Frederic Malle. I was initially going for the BTSO Fig fragrance(also amazing BUT the saleswoman showed me Ichnusa by Profumum Roma which she said would be a better add since I already have Philosykos from diptyque). Hated smoking gun on my skin. Hope I can find this brand when I get back to the us I think I still want their fig scent.
Thanks for the introduction to this new house Sebastian, I like the sound of Sex & Cognac I just wish the Cognac was more prominent from what you said. I also need to try a rice fragrance but I am not sure what a good starter is, I was thinking about TUTTOTONDO RISO? Cheers Brutha 😎
yes the TUTTOTONDO RISO is so good! But also Santal Basmati and a few others. But if you haven't watched the Rice Fragrances video here it is: ruclips.net/video/06EsfCvDDSA/видео.html just in case! :)
I wanted to love Drunk Saffron as well, it being my favorite note. I bind bought it but still working on it. It’s definitely the opening and the name is what sold me. I was looking forward to a boozy warm spicy Saffron ❤
I just sampled NSFW and DGAF they smell nice not full bottle worthy right now, just because I have other fragrances I want more, but when I'm done sampling the rest I'll probably end up buying a couple, for the novelty if for nothing else
Hi Sebastian: Do you know of Nishane coming out with an "X" collection.......a redo of several from their line.....Hundred Silent Ways is one of them. Let us know what you find out...thanks. :)
I agree so everything but I’d honestly switch smokin gun and drunken saffron. DS is such a unique and good scent I had to put it at number 1 for this house. Maybe it’s my body oil though .
Oh cool. I hope you get to sample it soon. I was speaking to someone during Esxence that is looking into distributing the brand in Europe so hopefully it will reach you as well! :)
I'm not a fan of the raunchy language nor the look of the brand. I just wouldn't ever have this on my dresser. But I can appreciate that fragrances can seem uptight what with all the French and such. This brand may scratch an itch for those looking for irreverence and a touch of rebellion.
I needed a bottle of Fig Porn, it's amazing, the best fig fragrance that I've tried so far and the performance is outstanding on my skin! Didn't like Drunk Saffron that much (it really smells like the name suggests!). I am going to try Mud as well very soon and I hope, that it will be great as well! Amazing brand!
Totally agree on fig porn! I feel like it was actually you who made me buy that scent in the beginning with, since you’ve spoken in such high language about it 🤌🏼😋
Greetings from Portugal!!!! I have to ask this is any niche fragrances similar to Classic Kouros Eau Toilette YSL. If you or any person know something please answer me. Thanks.

Wanted to get a review on these and I KNEW you'd come through with the in depth video! Most reliable perfume enthusiast on the web

I tried Drunk Lovers and enjoyed it. It has a similar DNA to BR540 which is overdone but if you like that DNA, this is well done.
I have the Smokin gun and it was my Winter perfume 2022/23. Definitively my favourite. My wife has the Dirty Rice. One of the greatest Brands i discovered in the last year.
That's awesome!!!
A sampled the entire line yesterday at the Scent Bar. I loved Unholy Oud, Not Vanilla, and Indecent Cherry
I just have a sample of Unholy Oud- and I really like it!!

True, Koreans love chanel,dior,le labo,dyptique, byredo,Santa Maria novella,Buly.
Elorea just came out with four new frags and they're wonderful too
Interesting
Thank you for reviewing this brand! Dirty Rice has been on my wishlist for a while..
I've sampled the rice 🍚 one at lucky scent its worthy 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I just tried Dirty Rice, nice fragrance but I want to try more from the brand. Love the bottles and the branding in general , the names are good too. Thanks for the review Sebastian!!!
Hope you like a few more! :)
i tried the entire collection and bought the Indescent Cherry.
I have sampled Unholy Oud and Hinoki Shower. Unholy Oud felt something like the "vanilla cake musk" from Musc Ravageur layered with slightly medicinal rose, maybe Oud Ispahan. Definitely different from basic oud + rose combo, however only OK. Sample, but not blind buy worthy.

Agreed about the Smokin Gun. I looooove it!
These sound interesting but I get the sense that they really have to be sampled. Smoking Gun is interesting to me. I don’t always like boozy or Smokey fragrances but when they work, they are wonderful
Oooow yay! I’ve been looking for your review on this house✨I have samples on the way.
I got my nose on Drunk Saffron and you are right about the first sniff. It smelled like some type of bug spray but the dry down is gorgeous. I got my eye on Mud next.
Ooh yes
My boyfriend leaves for Korea in 3 days and I have been WAITING for a video like this 😅 Thank youuuu ❤
I'm interested to try these. Smokin' Gun sounds astounding to me. I love smoke and booziness in a fragrance and it seems to tick all the right boxes for me.
Did you tried it?
@crazzy4463 the only one I tried is Sugar Addict, which is a very sweet musk.
Thanks for another great review. I got the sample pack from Lucky Scent ( wish I had remembered your code). All the scents are interesting and worth a smell. I also feel that the names don’t always live up to the scent that being said I do enjoy Dirty Rice and Indecent Cherry since the are different than what I have in my collection.
Figporn and DGAF are amazing
WOW this brand looks interesting! Is this your first review of a S. Korean perfume brand?
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
What's your opinion on longevity and sillage of these fragrances?
I was interested in these when they first launched, but the branding is a real “turnoff” for me. Really tired of overtly sexual marketing, just feels like a ploy for dollars from a younger, unrefined audience.
I saw the article on Fragrantica when they featured them, and it looked really interesting!
I've been looking forward to your thoughts on this brand! I will have to add some of these to my next LuckyScent order
Can't wait to explore this house. They sound great to me with Dirty Rice at the top.
Hope you enjoy

Very interesting. Yes the initial blast of Drunk Saffron is a bit off putting. So I ranked it low. ;)
I own the collection and my favorite is Drunk Saffron.
oh awesome!!
I just sampled NSFW and DGAF they smell nice not full bottle worthy right now, just because I have other fragrances I want more, but when I'm done sampling the rest I'll probably end up buying a couple, for the novelty if for nothing else
Unholy Oud is one of my favorites.
I've got to try more from the house.
I definitely want to try Drunk Saffron, Mud and Smokin' Gun
Hi Sebastian: Do you know of Nishane coming out with an "X" collection.......a redo of several from their line.....Hundred Silent Ways is one of them. Let us know what you find out...thanks. :)
I smelled several yes. I will have to report on them soon!! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy I’d love to see a video comparing them to their original versions! ☺️
Yay! Can hardly wait to get all the details. Ordered Island Lush today.....anxious for the Silky Woods new flanker.
Smoking gun is my favorite too. I really love it! Which I hate because really dislike this brands presentation lol.
I agree so everything but I’d honestly switch smokin gun and drunken saffron. DS is such a unique and good scent I had to put it at number 1 for this house. Maybe it’s my body oil though .
I really loved the dry down of Drunk Saffron but that initial blast is so off putting for me. I don't get it? It goes away quick though. So?
I have to dry the rice one! But Mud also sounds really cool
i'm going to korea in the fall! i'll have to visit!
Thanks for sharing these sound interesting
Thanks, I have seen add’s on Rice fragrances but I do not own any by the way 4-10-2023👍🏽
Fun brand name, never heard of it before. And the packaging is 💯. Personally I'd love to put my nose on Mud.
Oh cool. I hope you get to sample it soon. I was speaking to someone during Esxence that is looking into distributing the brand in Europe so hopefully it will reach you as well! :)
I have a tiny Luckyscent sample of V Unholy Oud- pretty nice!!
Want to try mud, i love gourmand...
I meant to say the vanilla has a little bit of Green and woods to it ❤
To me it feels targeted to people under 30.might get sample pack someday.
Wearing dirty rice today. I've also worn another one thats not here

Totally agree on fig porn! I feel like it was actually you who made me buy that scent in the beginning with, since you’ve spoken in such high language about it 🤌🏼😋
My favorites are smoking gun and dgaf 🖤
Hi Sebastian, I am in search for A perfume which smells like Molton Brown Blissful Templetree. Any suggestions? 😊
Wonderful 🎉
Greetings from Portugal!!!!
I have to ask this is any niche fragrances similar to Classic Kouros Eau Toilette YSL.
If you or any person know something please answer me.
Thanks.
Try EL by Arquiste!
@@ThePerfumeGuy Thank you Sir for the feed back I will search in my city.
Have you testrd Hinoki Shower?
How about not vanilla???
I sampled Fig Porn and absolutely loved it! Sending hugs from Germany 🤗
🌹
I like chocolate fragrances I would try to wear MUD 😊
These sound too edgy and weird to be good.
Edgy and weird can be really good!! :)
