Fragrance information:
Marquess de Pumpkin Haus of Gloi
Marquess de Pumpkin Perfume Oil is an oil-based fragrance by Haus of Gloi, released in 2018.
This is a unisex fragrance with a distinctive oriental-fruity character, created for those who love warm, rich and slightly mystical compositions.
Haus of Gloi is an independent American perfume brand founded in 2014 by perfumer Britton Boyd.
Its style revolves around cozy imagery, a creative approach and atmospheric combinations, so Marquess de Pumpkin naturally fits the brand's DNA, transforming the familiar pumpkin theme into a deeper, more resinous perfume story.
The Fragrance's Character and Mood
The composition features amber, beeswax, incense, myrrh, pumpkin and vanilla.
Together, they create a dense, honeyed-resinous scent with a gourmand facet: pumpkin adds a soft fruity sweetness, vanilla rounds out the accord, while incense and myrrh lend it a refined balsamic depth.
Marquess de Pumpkin unfolds not as a light dessert-like fragrance, but as a warm oriental perfume with character.
Beeswax and amber create a velvety base, while incense and myrrh add a gentle smokiness and evoke the feeling of an old-world fragrance room.
Thanks to this balance, the fragrance may appeal both to fans of gourmand accords and to those looking for a darker, more resinous scent.
Sillage and Wearability
According to the catalogue, Marquess de Pumpkin has very strong sillage.
The oil-based formula encourages an intimate yet rich development on the skin while leaving a noticeable fragrant trail, making the composition especially suitable for cool weather, evenings and occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality.
The fragrance is presented as unisex and is not tied to a particular style or gender. On one person's skin, it may smell honeyed, vanilla-like and cozy; on another, more resinous, spicy and mysterious.
No precise recommendation for the number of applications on skin or clothing is provided for this release, so it is best to control the intensity gradually by applying a small amount of the perfume oil.
The Perfumer and Similar Fragrances
Marquess de Pumpkin was created by Britton Boyd, the founder of Haus of Gloi.
His work here is evident in his ability to combine cozy pumpkin and vanilla with more complex notes of incense, myrrh, amber and wax, giving the fragrance a layered and memorable character.
If you enjoy oriental, amber and resinous-gourmand compositions, take a look at Van Cleef & Arpels Bois d'Iris, as well as Amouage Interlude Black Iris Man and Avon Imari Seduction 2015.
They differ in mood and structure, but may appeal to lovers of expressive fragrances with noticeable sillage and an unconventional character.
