January Scent Project Serin
I just received a sample set from this artisanal house yesterday. The house has received a lot of positive notice, so I had been wanting to try it for a while. Serin, the brand's newest, is the one I was most drawn to after trying almost all of them on smelling strips. It's a very interesting and wonderful blend of marigold and incense. I might need a full bottle of this. At $65 for 30ml, this house's fragrances are very reasonably priced, especially for the quality.

This sounds very interesting! I really haven't paid enough attention to artisanal perfume houses yet, and would like to explore some of them at some point.
I have one fragrance with marigold and I love it. It's Van Cleef by Van Cleef & Arpels, and it's a very nice scent at a great price point. I really should wear it more often.
I find citrus notes like mandarin and orange, and also the blossoms like orange blossom and lemon blossom to be both uplifting and soothing. Today, I am wearing Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Flora Nymphea, which is a nice fragrance with syringa flowers and orange blossom.
If you do start looking into smaller, artisanal houses, January Scent Project is a good one to check out. He sells a nice sample set, and the full bottles are reasonably priced. He even sells a set of three 30ml bottles--your choice of which three of his seven--and they come in a very nice box for $160. A 100ml bottle costs $145. Serin is definitely worth a 30ml bottle for me. I'm going to test the rest of the samples over the next few days to see if I fall for any of the rest of them.
Thank you, yes, I will likely start with this house. They sound interesting and reasonably priced as well.
I did end up ordering a full bottle of Ambre Sultan in early March, but really haven't ordered anything since then. Currently I am planning to go through my perfumes, especially the ones that I haven't used in a while, and see if I still want them in my collection. Basically, I'm looking to streamline the collection a bit and maybe weed out some redundancies. Let's see how that goes!
Good luck! Luckily, I only have maybe two bottles of things that I'm not sure I care for. Everything else I'm questionable on is only a decant, so I don't have much to worry about there!
I was happy to order the sample set for January Scent Project last week, and I'll be happy to order at least one full bottle from him. I'm sure a lot of these small houses are really suffering right now.
