L’Humaniste by Frapin


Today I am wearing L’Humaniste by Frapin

Mmmm I’m really enjoying this one.  Although it has a fresh bergamot and lemon opening it soon moves into spicier notes courtesy of black and pink pepper, cardamom and nutmeg. 

Deliciously smooth and rounded with a tinsy winsy hint of floral (gorgeous peony) but remaining fresh at all times (juniper and thyme).  As it dries down I’m getting oakmoss which pretty much wraps it up and puts a ribbon on it too.

It is a lovely fresh and spicy scent but it doesn’t leap up your nose and strip your nasal hairs.  This one teases its way from wrist to nose, unfurling it wonderful green spiciness with every inch it travels.  It reminds me of a very welcome gin and tonic.


Glorious, botanical, spicy and very welcome.
