Interview with a perfume critic: Evaluation and reviews of popular fragrances.
Perfume critic: a rare profession. It is a person who has dedicated their life to studying fragrance...
The world of niche perfumery is constantly enriched with new names, and one of the brightest discoveries of 2024 is the brand Notts. Born in Indonesia, it immediately caught the attention of connoisseurs of unconventional fragrances. These are not just perfumes; they are stories told through notes inspired by the nature, culture, and atmosphere of a tropical archipelago. Notts positions itself as a unisex brand, offering eau de parfum that blurs the lines between masculine and feminine, leaving only the pure art of olfactory perception.
Despite its youth, the brand has already gained devoted fans. Its philosophy rests on three pillars: quality ingredients, conceptual depth, and accessible luxury. The concentration "eau de parfum" speaks to a serious approach to longevity and sillage—each fragrance is crafted to stay with you throughout the day, revealing new facets. Notts is for those who seek not trivial mass-market compositions but a true olfactory adventure.
Currently, the brand's portfolio includes three gems, each deserving individual attention. Start your acquaintance with Notts with the bestseller Notts Stellar. This fragrance is a true cosmos on the skin: fresh, spicy, and slightly mystical. Heart notes of pink pepper and nutmeg are enveloped in a base of vetiver and musk, creating a feeling of endless starry sky. An ideal choice for those who want to make a statement without raising their voice.
For fans of gourmand notes, Notts Lady Vanille was created. This is not a cloying vanilla dessert but a refined, "adult" vanilla, wrapped in smoky tones of tonka bean and sandalwood. The fragrance unfolds like a soft velvet blanket on a cool evening—warming, soothing, and offering a sense of comfort. It's no wonder it has become a favorite among many bloggers and perfume critics.
Special mention goes to Notts Monet's Garden. Inspired by Impressionist painting, this unisex fragrance transports you to Claude Monet's blooming garden. Juicy green notes of blackcurrant leaves intertwine with watercolor hints of iris and white flowers. Light, painterly, and incredibly romantic—it's the perfect companion for the spring-summer season and for those who appreciate subtle, natural scents.
The brand's main highlight is its origin. Indonesia, a land of thousands of islands, is renowned for its rich flora and fauna. Although the Indonesian perfume school is not as prominent as the French or Italian, Notts proves that masterpieces can be created here too. The fragrances exude a love for natural ingredients and bold experimentation. Yet all compositions remain wearable and modern, without the extreme "nicheness" that might scare off newcomers. This is the perfect balance between exoticism and European elegance.
Choosing Notts means getting not just a bottle of perfume but a ticket to the world of Indonesian perfumery art. The brand has already won the hearts of audiences in its homeland and is gradually expanding internationally. If you appreciate long-lasting fragrances with a good sillage, love discovering new names, and are not afraid to step outside the ordinary—take a closer look at this young brand. Start with the iconic hits, and perhaps Notts will become your new perfume discovery.
