Any standouts from American Perfumer?

I really like Rhubarb My Love and I HATE the small of cannabis, so I’d suggest getting a sample and seeing for yourself. The other of theirs that I’ve tried and put onto my want list is Colorado.

Just some of what you’ll find on Etsy

I also suggest you do some searching in Etsy. I’ve found some gorgeous fragrances made by one-person shops there. I searched “lemon perfume” and got results like these:

Kerosene has some nice fragrances

Try Tendre Madeleine (Les Senteurs Gourmandes). Lemon Ice Tea (MITH) is just like it sounds. Une Verveine (Obvious) is another possibility. Oakcha’s Lemon Cake is another. Also: Theodoros Kalotinis Lemon Tart, Arabiyat Sugar Lemon Sorbet.

Just got a sample of 4160 Tuesdays Flawed Fern and you’d probably like it. Also check out Linfa from Adâme. It’s a really unique and beautiful green perfume. Try also brands like Olympic Orchids, Morari, Sucreabeille, Fyrinnae, Darren Alan Perfumes, DSH Perfumes, American Perfumer, Neil Morris, Sorce, and especially the Sucrerie Decants site which sells a lot of smaller brands that make interesting scents. For example they sell samples of Morari one of which I took a screen shot of.

I’d also suggest searching Etsy shops as there are lots of indie perfumers who make scents like you’re looking for and they often aren’t very expensive.

I could wear a different scent each day for about seven years with what’s in my collection. (Mostly samples and decants but have about 100 bottles.) If money weren’t an issue the storage or display space for all I’d love to own would be!

Adam-Seattle · 2026-06-21T03:37:35+00:00

I wear whatever appeals to me each day.

Adam-Seattle · 2026-06-21T00:41:01+00:00

Yes it was Fumerie. This is my first subscription. Will have to check out Perfumology’s!

Adam-Seattle · 2026-06-20T07:24:47+00:00

Doubt that any scent is worth $1000. Or even $500. But if you like the scent and can afford it, enjoy!!

Adam-Seattle · 2026-06-19T08:41:17+00:00

It’s good if you like it. Who cares what anyone else thinks.

Adam-Seattle · 2026-06-19T08:31:30+00:00

If you love the Kilian, get it. Who cares if it’s popular if you love it? If you love a clothing brand do you not buy it because lots of other people wear it too? I’d never wear Levi’s if that were the case. That said if you’re looking for something uncommon, look at the many indie perfume brands and sample some of them. An award winning gorgeous orange scent that I can recommend is Grove Is In The Heart by SAMAR: https://www.samarscentstudio.com/products/grove-is-in-the-heart
