Scent of the Week
ALT. Fragrances positions itself as a curator of unconventional scents, moving away from traditional fragrance norms to offer something distinctly different. The brand focuses on creating olfactory experiences that challenge expectations rather than follow formulaic trends.
Scent of the Week opens with an unusual combination of broom, buchu, guaiac wood, spruce, and toffee that establishes both woody and gourmand qualities right away. The heart develops into a complex mix of amber, cilantro, labdanum, and mushroom accords, creating an earthy sweetness with herbal undertones and an almost savory character. The base settles on georgywood, mushroom, musk, and rosemary, grounding the composition in woody, slightly animalic territory while the rosemary adds a final herbal dimension that ties back to the cilantro in the heart.
This is a fragrance for those drawn to unconventional, slightly offbeat scents that blur traditional gender lines. It works best as an evening or cooler-weather fragrance where its woody-gourmand duality and earthy mushroom notes can develop fully. If you're drawn to fragrances that prioritize character over crowd-pleasing, consider exploring The Romantic, The Reverie, and The Hedonist.
