Top 10 best spice perfumes (cardamom, cinnamon, clove) on Persolaise Love At First Scent episode 237

I love very spicy fragrances particularly in December. I can't wait to try White. On my personal list I'd add Epic Man and Bapteme du Feu, the latter would fit in this weird spicy gourmand genre.

Interesting topic, so many factors influence what people interpret as spicy. I can't tell you how many times someone has commented on a scent I had on with "ohhh its soo spicy" and I had to stop and think 🤔 spicy, really? Because I definitely didn't put anything on that is spicy(or what I perceive as spicy)

Costume National Homme is my spicy pick! Have a lovely Christmas and stay safe!

This is a category with stiff competition for me: Francesca Bianchi Under my Skin, Caron Parfum Sacre, several Serge Lutens and Neela Vemeer, Amouage Jubilation 25, original Opium, Cinnabar, etc. And you have sent me down a rabbit hole searching spice cookies on pinterest after the cardamom rose water cookie reference 🤣

General consensus on current formulation of Noir Epices? Has it been ruined? Still good just different?

Yes the original cinnabar was wonderful and I'm loving xerjoff casamorati dolce amalfi beautiful amount of spice & my other favourite is Tango by masque milano
Big red is a wonderful cinnamon chewing gum

good afternoon, Persolaise et al. - regarding cardamom: please consider "Fidelis" by Histoires de Parfum - a strikingly cardamom-forward fragrance with coffee, rose, oud, and all sorts of other loveliness. certainly not a wilting violet.

Arabie should have been on that list. Definitely

Hi Persolaise, Too busy to join the group for the live broadcast. I have still watched as attentively as a true geeky fan should... Notes have been taken & the dream list lengthens.

Have been wearing Youth Dew for the lovely clove note, along with the spicy boozy Idole de Lubin, for this holiday season. I’ve also made several batches of gluhvein with plenty of clove, cinnamon & orange. 🎄🍷🍊

So lucky to have vintage Spellbound, youth dew, Cinnabar and opium in terms of spicies ❣️❣️❣️ i love them sooooo much 🥰🥰🥰 i cant find the rich and warm vibes from the new perfumes 😔 do you know a perfume that smells like Cinnabar?

I have a vintage bottle of JHL by Aramis, the man’s version of Cinnabar, its awesome!

I love these top 10 lists, so if there are any naysayers, please ignore them!!!! Feminite du Bois has always reminded me of YSL's Nu, which lives only on eBay these days. The only issue I have w/ FDB is that it virtually only lasts 1 hour on me so I go through the bottles very quickly, otherwise so lovely! How about the top 10 of the last decade? You may have already done that; I have a vague memory of it; oh boy need to check now!

I loved Cinnabar back in the day.

Elephant by Kenzo is very spicy

I remember a liquid-center gum called Freshen Up. ( “The gum that goes Squirt!”) They made a cinnamon flavor which had that sweet/hot quality.
Loved the video - more fragrances for my “must try” list, as always. Happy Holidays!

Really enjoyed this one and only sad that I couldn’t play live as I was working . I loved your choices and most happy to see Cinnabar as much prefer to Opium and probably the first spicy fragrance I owned . I adore Cardamom in anything and eat pods raw too . Tom of Finland is a fairly new favourite of mine and believe it or not ‘ I have yet to try Fem de Bois or the Malle but hope to remedy this soon . So lucky to have been both to the theatre and a concert this last week as maybe we will soon to back limited to having your wonderful channel as entertainment. Finally today I am visiting someone who is allergic to perfume and I can’t wear any and I feel naked and sad that someone could be unable to have this wonderful pleasure. Thank you as always for the joy you bring x 😃

I just checked Amazon and found a sugar free cardamon syrup from a company named Jordans (they have a chai one as well)... thanks for info...Also there was a strong cinnamon gum from Wrigleys introduced in 1975 called BIG RED. My fav spice scent is New York Intense by Nicolai with cloves cinnamon and black pepper...enjoy your holidays

Interesting that the spices our noses are drawn to are insect repelling and have anti-bacterial properties.

My most spicy and intrinsically "autumn holiday" fragrance is Fair Parfums' Royale. Other than that, I have some of Boucheron's Jaipur Homme Fraicheur Epicee, which I enjoy.

Cinnabar Estee, Ambre Extreme Artisan Parfumeur, Epice Marine Hermes, Manrose Etro.
Personally for me, nothing can be more delicious than spiced tea masala. Curry is wonderful.... and Georgian meat and bean dishes with garlic, coriander and khmeli sunely.
As to Frederic Malle, i adore the elegant kitchen spice trace in Musque Ravageur.
Oh, just saw Fem du Bois, it is divinely lit by little spice accents of cloves and cinnamon. Absolutely for it.
A very elegant way to present spices pursues The Different Company. I love their Oriental lounge, and Osmanrhus seemed to be powdered by some very delicate spice...
Fate and Journey by Amouage female versions, as well here on the agenda.
I just lol carrying on to watch, just as I think meaning I automatically denied Opium in favour of Cinnabar and recalled the coolness if marine spices of Ellena, just as you did. Spellbound is over the top clovey, which they usually hate as an eugenol bomb. Instead, they ussued a very subdued but very there - Very Estee. But Spellbound has always beenis so feminine and posh. Strangely, L'air du temps, also clovey, is still alive and loved and much more...

Sultan Pasha makes an oil that smells EXACTLY like Japanese incense. It’s name is Nankun Kodo and was created to replicate a very popular incense by the Japanese company Shoyeido. I burn it frequently. 😊♥️

Sire P I love when you compare the fragrance to a person at le dinner table because you’re so spot in with the aesop one. Perfect vid papa P thank you!!

Neela Vermeire! ❤️ She is so lovely & wonderful! Her fragrances are such art! The intellectual and olfactive stimulation of her creations are so unique & beautiful!

Very Nice Today Persolaise!!!

Funny enough, Spice Girls actually did have a fragrance launch! They partnered with the company Impulse for a body spray, which was released in an aerosol canister, though I somehow own a coveted frosted glass bottle eau de toilette (or "parfum deodorant" as they call it) from childhood. Alas, Opium has got to be my be-all-end-all spicy frag.

Declaration Cartier, noir epices is my Christmas choice, Épices sultanes- comptoir sud pacifique which I bloody love.

Wonderful as always!

Would the chewing gum you mentioned be called "freshen Up?".

Cinabar fragrance always reminded me of Christmas time especially the month of December. It was just everywhere. Smelled absolutely wonderful. 😀

Opium, don’t judge me ha but old spice meme cologne. Philosophy use to make gingerbread man scrub ohh I miss. Cinnabar and youth dew …..pls tell me there are “newer” brands ? Spice bomb felt like a headache I didn’t like it and was so surprised when I didn’t!? The only newer one was jo Malone cardamom mimosa but not strong enough? I still wear poison to me spicy , original coco NOT mademoiselle ick

Someone mentioned diptyqiue I forgot the name ! But that it had all these spices ? Anyone know of that one ?

Do not hate me…pepper seems to cancel everything else out for me ?

Wait I keep hearing vintage opium?? I was about to buy myself a bottle…what did they do to it ? :(

Neela Vermeire Creations Trayee is an Addictive Magical fragrance. HUGE THANK YOU FOR TURNING ME ON TO NV fragrances! Trayee and Mohur Extrait are now my top two favorite fragrances. (Also enjoy Bombay Bling) 💖💖💖

Motherhood of black pepper is Kerala, India, long before Vasco Da Gama first arrived in Calicut in 1498💀

When I look up cinnabar today not many spices listed on fragrantica same with opium depending
On which opium you look up ? Very weird. Like why would they make opium now with so few spices!? It makes NO sense !! The last time I had a bottle of opium was 2011 ( it was a CVS 2009 bottle ) and a kid playing in my bathroom shattered the bottle on my floor 😢I died. So as I don’t like the new sadly I buy a cheap dupe and oddly enough it does take me back phew but I’d like for YSL to take my ass back

Freshen Up!!! Is the gum

Noir epices,Oh really? Reformulation But for worse or for beter? what did you heard more ?

My knees buckled the first time I smelled Féminité du Bois. I adore it!! I even keep a back-up bottle.

Sujata here, Mr. P. So you too talk about the reformulation of Noir Epices here! I missed that in the first viewing! Aaaargh - all these reformulations just make buying perfumes so much less fun as one is paranoid about getting robbed of the authentic scent! Anyway - I just ordered a sample which I assume will be the newest formulation. Since this'll be my first time getting my nose on Noir Epices maybe I won't be as biased as all you experts and I'll actually like it. 😊 Hope springs eternal, Mr.P!

During the “summer break” I’ve been watching older live videos that I may have missed the first time around. Love hearing about spice perfumes—many of which I’ll need to seek out for autumn!

villoresi has an aromatic tribute to spices and herbs called "spezie", where cinnamon serves as the backbone

This was such an education! I have an old bottle of Opium that I cherish. If you like saffron have you tried Costume Nationale 's 21? I must investigate Trayee.

Loooove Marrakech intense 🥰

Cinnabar is still in production. It contains coumarin, the blood thinner. I wish everyone would stop knocking Opium.

Where did you get your shirt if I may ask?

your shirt reminds me of the strokes' the new abnormal album
