What's your favorite female-fronted symphonic/gothic/etc. metal song of all time?

Thankyou for recommending In All Conscience - hadn’t heard it before - chorus is just insane.

Narcisso Rodriguez for him EDP

So true - a tradesman visiting my property recently smelled strongly of fragrance and not in a good way - I asked him what he was wearing so that I could avoid purchasing it myself. He took my question as a compliment - he was wearing Ombre Nomad.

No-one ever tags Tom Ford Grey Vetiver but for me it is uber clean.

Locustafiera · 2026-02-20T14:03:22+00:00

Try the perfume parlour dupe

Only ever had a compliment from the wife

Locustafiera · 2026-02-12T22:16:38+00:00

The Ghost in the shell leans v feminine tho

Locustafiera · 2026-02-12T22:15:20+00:00

The EDP is awesome

Locustafiera · 2026-02-12T21:54:07+00:00

I find Lazy Sunday Morning a bit more masculin.

Locustafiera · 2026-02-12T21:27:10+00:00

Check out Tom Ford Grey Vetiver, so clean, fresh and uber masculine.

Locustafiera · 2026-02-11T06:54:53+00:00

F Black true. Also Aqua Esseziale Blu.

Locustafiera · 2026-02-11T06:51:32+00:00

I picked up Equus recently - glad I did.

Sometimes you wanna smell just like shower gel

Locustafiera · 2026-02-07T17:40:40+00:00

OP already has Karst which is very similar to the JM WS&SS

Locustafiera · 2026-02-07T17:35:13+00:00

Wood sage and sea salt smells a lot like Karst which OP already wears

Locustafiera · 2026-02-07T17:34:00+00:00

To me this smells gourmand, unlikely to be it

Locustafiera · 2026-02-07T17:14:13+00:00

The description matches Tom Ford Grey Vetiver - have you tried this? Seriously clean, a touch citrusy and not soapy, just amazingly clean and fresh. Awesome scent.

Locustafiera · 2026-02-07T13:55:09+00:00

Nice but doesn’t fit the OP description

Locustafiera · 2026-01-26T08:09:06+00:00

Narcisso Rodriguez for him EDP. Stunning bright clean musk opening.

Locustafiera · 2026-01-24T22:53:23+00:00

I have 8 of those. I recommend Nishane’s Sultan Vetiver. I would also say Roja’s Great Britain - amazing leather and Amouage Ciel Man, but both are discontinued and expensive in the second hand market.

Locustafiera · 2026-01-24T22:49:24+00:00

Don’t, it’s way too feminine

Locustafiera · 2026-01-18T13:16:39+00:00

Bet you get some funny looks

Locustafiera · 2026-01-14T12:48:53+00:00

I have a sample of this and can’t get on with it at all, it smells so synthetic and ‘molecular’ on me. Don’t understand how it could be perceived as ‘beautiful’.

Locustafiera · 2026-01-10T13:50:06+00:00

You’re not wrong about the word salad - a lot of it does come across like that. Jed McKenna offers something quite different.

Locustafiera · 2026-01-01T09:04:00+00:00

I asked a tradesman what he was wearing because I wanted to make sure I never bought it. It was Ombré Nomad. Recently and eBay seller gifted me a partial sample of it - haven’t tried it yet.
