Best Grigioperla Essence by La Perla Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

A pretty honeyed floral with some ambery background. Magnolias, violets, jasmine, ylang-ylang are all in the bouquet thrown on satin blanket of white musk and Siam benzoin.

The Sniff on Latin Lover by Carner:

"The [opening] florals recede into a pretty, flowery fug in the base of the scent, still heady, still very flowery, sweet and powerful, but the notes become less discernible from one another. The warmth remains and, at times, this perfume just really smells like sunshine on naked skin. On a cold, drizzly Yorkshire day this is indeed a joyous thing!"

Bamboo captures the tranquil greenness of spring and summer in Zhejiang — a vision of misty hills and swaying bamboo after the morning fog has lifted. The breeze carries fresh green leaves through a soft haze of lily of the valley, jasmine and geranium. A breath of earth is suggested by vetiver and patchouli, while ambergris and cypress wrap the scent in a warm, resinous calm.

Misty Cypress Ash captures a mountain landscape with swirls of smoke rising from smoldering cypress branches amid the forest mist. Opens with an herbaceous, slightly bitter green haze of absinthe and wormwood, transitioning into a warm, spicy and woody heart of cypress and rich tobacco. Finally it settles into a comfortable, earthy and mineral-smoky finish with rooty vetiver and austere cedar.

Kyoto is a lean and clean incense that smells like a sacred space in a forest clearing. The incense here is shaped by dry and spicy cypress and cedar, crisp teak, and the sweet hay of everlasting flower. Even just wearing Kyoto is a purification ritual.

PG19.1 Neroli ad Astra is a musky fresh formula with a delicate green woody character.

It starts with a soft clean mix of mandarin, neroli and geranium and gradually descends to dry powdery spiciness of Haiti vetiver and an exotic note of desert agave flower.

This has been an absolute hit with ladies for a few years now. 

Pair this perfume with the indulgent Neroli ad Astra hand and body wash infused with the same fragrance.

After the first rains of autumn, the woods exhale salubrious scents of peat, moss and petrichor — the ideal antidote to the scorching summer heat. Chypre-Mousse was first launched in 1914 for the dandies of the new century, and this iteration reinterprets a classic fougere with contemporary materials. This explosively aromatic blend hums with wild mint and fennel in a swirl of earthy oak moss, peppery green angelica and fresh pine. Bring the outdoors in with Chypre-Mousse.
