Never smelled before I bought Dossier

I bought this because I like Jo Malone Sea Salt and Sage or Woody Sage. I read the description and saw the price tag and I had to buy. A female could wear this but I feel it is kind of manly. So I would label it a niche female fragrance. I sprayed as soon as I opened the box. Very upfront sandalwood dry smell. The smell was....very dry maybe tart sandalwood cedarwood. The projection was strong and lasting. For a man this cologne would smell nice but I would need it to be softened up with something... I just don't know what, cinnamon, vanilla. I am going to use my sample a few more times to see if my opinion changes. I would love to see how it smells on a man and I would like to go out in public with this scent on to see if it gets noticed. If my opinion stays the same I will try and return.

Love the scent, lasts very long

Bought this over 2 times and I love i so much. it has a very yummy sweet vanilla after scent and is such a delicious smelling sandalwood. Personally I like it even more thna the authentic Le Labo and it lasts very long. My friends say they can smell me when I sit near them!

my fav so far

Ive purchased 14 Dossier fragrances at this point, and this is the clear standout so far (at least of the 8 that I have worn on myself, the rest being brand new or gifts). I swear it smells different every time I wear it (which is a good thing), I guess depending on weather, time of day, my skin chemistry for that day, etc., so its always exciting to find out which notes will outshine the rest on any given day! This is also the longest-lasting Dossier fragrance Ive used, though unfortunately none of them has the insane performance that the marketing would have you believe. My friend who owns Santal 33 said that this smells identical to the real thing, so if thats what youre looking for you neednt worry! Also, I dont know if this is a common experience, but the few floral notes present in this fragrance tend to be the ones that stand out the most on me, and Im surprised that I actually like it as someone who often hates florals. Overall a great purchase, and I will be acquiring a travel bottle as soon as they come out (Dossier, pls hurry with that release, lol)!

Not what I expected

I purchased the scent inspired by Le Labo. First spray you.smell alcohol. the scent after it dies down is faint so you may need to spray a lot. However by the time you get to your destination the smell is GONE. Im returning mine...I need something that arrives after you but strong enough to get a reaction. This disappoints in that regard

Not for me

I really wanted to like this, people rave about LeLabo Santal, and I should have liked it- I love woody and masculine scents. But this wasn't it. No idea why, but I couldn't like this one, and I tried. It lingers and has a nice bottle like all the rest, but the scent just wasn't right for me and I sent it back.

So happy with this

This stuff smells AMAZING. I was a little skeptical at first but when I tried the little sample bottle, it blew my mind with how similar it was to the le labo santal 33. I almost like the after smell of this one more. It wears long, and i get so many compliments from it. Im excited to try more scents this company offers if this is the quality of all of them.

Headaches

This fragrance gave my boyfriend and I headaches right away. It is very strong. Maybe it would work better if sprayed lightly in the air and we just walked through it. It smells like an expensive hotel lobby. I wish I liked it more. It does have a strong dill smell which is why alot of people says it smells like pickles.

Alternative purpose

Unfortunately this is just not my personal cup of tea as a body fragrance (never smelled LL Santal 33 btw, I was curious about all the hype around it). However, I love it as a room/fabric spray, so keep that in mind. That being said, I do really like the aroma. Unsure if I am alone in this, but I find it to be very appropriate scent for the holiday season (that we are in at the time I am reviewing this). It reminds me of Christmastime for some reason and when I use it in my home it puts me in a festive mood. There is no pine listed but I get a faint pine scent. I suppose it is all the woody notes and Cypriol. This is definitely for the lovers of very woody heavy perfumes! Even if I am using it unconventionally, I am glad I have this one and love it so so much the unintentional way I use it!

Good but not my vibe

I understand why people love this perfume so much but its just not my thing. Smells too much like a sandalwood incense stick- reminds me of my Sundays in African church when I was a child haha. Quite strong though and bleeds affluence. Overall, Id say this gives wealthy African auntie vibes. Rather than unisex Id call this feminine that leans masculine- the musky nature somewhat overrides the lighter notes, but you can definitely still catch them. Definitely suitable for evening/night time or for days where you want to solidify your presence if that makes sense. Quite liked it, but I just couldnt see myself wearing it much

It's different

I got this scent based on reviews and because I wanted to switch up my collection. I tend to like gourmand scents and this is the exact opposite. This smells fresh and woodsy. It comes off a little strong on first spray, but I will say it dries down beautifully. I do wish it had a little vanilla or something to help smooth it out. However, I've layered it with Floriental Vanilla or Ambery Saffron and they both pair well.
