What a complex, distinct, dramatically sexy—and perhaps offensive—perfume that remains undeniably beautiful. Salomé is Salomé; she breaks conventions and claims her territory. She embodies wild, animalistic sensuality without compromise or gray tones. It’s raw feminine beauty, natural and unadorned, with a sexuality that’s worn with total confidence. It has a vintage soul. It opens with animal notes that strut their stuff; at first, it might be shocking, but soon they meld into your skin and become part of your very pH. Then comes the cumin note, which initially smells like sweat, but when the clove and jasmine explode, it’s pure lust and constant pleasure. After a few hours, you get orange blossom, rose, and fresh hay. It’s so much more than that: it’s an orgasmic explosion from the very first second, chameleon-like and seductive. There’s no better name. Salomé embodies that biblical character: seductive, explicit sexuality, misunderstood beauty, enchantment, and malice lurking behind those beautiful nuances. What a treasure of seduction to wear on your skin.

I was gifted a sample that I ended up using with great regret because I couldn’t afford the 150€ for the 50ml bottle. What a complex, dark, sexy, and beautiful fragrance. It opens with a delicious, fine, and elegant leather note, evolves into something warm and cozy, and then becomes 100% animalic. Everyone notices it’s animalic, but it’s so well-crafted that instead of being dirty, it’s sexy and addictive. I compare it to The Lover’s Tale by Francesca Bianchi, but this one is dirtier, more primal, and stronger; Salomé is five rungs higher in elegance and class without losing its overwhelming power. I love it. I see it as unisex, perfect for any time or season. It’s for when you want to project that you’re a superior, brilliant being with sexuality on full display, desirable and brazenly suggestive. You put it on and go out to conquer the world. Don’t wear it to interviews, your in-laws’ house, the gym, or business dinners; it’s for getting into a fierce fight without a care in the world.

I love it, see it as unisex, and would wear it anytime. It’s one of those perfumes that add points to what you want to project: if you feel the need to be a brilliant, superior, and desirable being, put this on and go out to conquer the world. Don’t wear it to interviews, in-laws’ houses, the gym, or business dinners; it’s for getting into a heated argument without shame.
As you say, it’s not for every nose. Luckily, I bought 5ml because the price is scandalous. To me, it smells like entering an old church, with creaking wooden floors, incense, candle smoke, images of saints, and old books, like an old Holy Week. It’s a scent that doesn’t seem unknown to me; I’ve smelled something similar vintage, but elevated to the tenth power. It has an impressive trail, which is a pity for me. Of course, I wouldn’t want to smell like this or imagine that someone is attracted to me. The world of scents is particular, and it’s all about taste; if you like it, try it first because my disappointment was huge after reading only good reviews.
As you all say, it’s not for everyone. Luckily, I only bought 5ml—the price is outrageous. To me, it smells like an old church with creaking wooden floors, incense, candle smoke, saints, and old books, like Holy Week. It’s not an unknown scent; I remember vintage perfumes that remind me of it, but this one amplified to the tenth power. The sillage is impressive, which is my only regret. For the life of me, I wouldn’t want to smell like this or imagine someone attracting me with that aroma. The world of scents is particular, and to each their own; if you like it, test it first. So far, I’ve only read glowing reviews, and my disappointment has been huge.
Masterpiece of floral chypre with a brutal animalic base. It’s pure sex, penetrating and intense. I tried it with a sample of Equation Natural and wore it for hours. At first, it projects strongly and fills the room, then softens with a deceptive citrus touch before unleashing an animalic bomb that’s hard to digest. Sometimes I feel like I’m in a warm, straw-filled stable, too much for me; other times, that dirty scent that mysteriously turns sweet is so intoxicating I want to be addicted. At moments, I notice a soapy aspect that I love. I loved the experience, but I don’t know if I’ll buy it: it’s for rare occasions and my circle hasn’t approved it. Maybe a decant to enjoy alone as a forbidden pleasure… Wide trail and extremely long-lasting, over 14 hours. Scent 9/10, Longevity 10/10, Sillage 10/10, Value 7.5/10, Versatility 2/10, Packaging 4/10. Would I buy again? No.
A floral-chypre masterpiece with a brutal animalic base. It’s pure sex—penetrating and intense. I tried it with a sample of Equation Natural and wore it for hours. At first, it projects strongly and fills the room; then it softens into a deceptive citrus note before hitting with an overwhelming animal blast that’s hard to digest. Sometimes it smells like a warm stable and straw, too much for me; other times, that dirty scent turning sweet is intoxicating and addictive. I noticed a soapy touch that I love. I loved the experience, but I’m not sure I’ll buy it: it’s for rare occasions, and my environment hasn’t approved it. Maybe a decant to enjoy alone as a forbidden pleasure. Projection and longevity are off the charts (over 14 hours). Scent 9/10, longevity 10/10, sillage 10/10, value for money 7.5/10, versatility 2/10, packaging 4/10. Didn’t buy it.
Salomé has captivated me. It opens citrusy and transforms in minutes into a spicy animalic aroma with prominent florals. It reminds me of classic chypres like Eau du Soir or Paloma Picasso, but more animalic, and Diaghilev by Roja Dove or Maai by Bogue Profumo. Besides ambergris and castoreum, it has a strong musk that smells like sweat, but not unpleasantly, addictively. Although it sounds feminine, I see it as totally unisex and feel comfortable with it. Ideal for cold climates or mild nights. Scent 8.5, Longevity 9, Sillage 8, Versatility 6, Originality 8, Value 6, Overall 8.5.
Salomé has captivated me. It opens very citrusy and transforms into something animalic and spicy within minutes, with a well-defined floral facet. It reminds me of traditional chypres like Sisley’s Eau du Soir or Paloma Picasso, but much more animalic, and of modern scents like Roja Dove’s Diaghilev or Bogue Profumo’s Maai. Beyond ambergris and castoreum, it has a very strong musk; together they create a sweat-like scent, but not unpleasant—addictive. Although it sounds like a feminine perfume, I see it as totally unisex and feel comfortable wearing it. I’d recommend it for cold climates or mild nights. Scent: 8.5, Longevity: 9, Sillage: 8, Versatility: 6, Originality: 8, Value: 6, Overall: 8.5.
I wasn’t expecting a top-tier animal beast, but rather a tango and waltz with the great Kouros of the 80s and 90s. Overall, it’s a rare proposal for experienced noses—a dense and persistent floral chypre that never bothers or tires you; you devour it until you’re in symbiosis. It starts with spicy citrus and dark flowers, but then Salomé changes lanes toward the balsamic, getting lost in distant worlds until it lands on good earth: a forest with moss, thick grass, and your head in the sky. Sometimes storm clouds with lightning, other times a pale sky, and other times a volcano with lava falling at dusk. Putting everything in motion is something few perfumes can boast. Salomé is a challenging, dark scent that demands a lot of personality to wear. A test spray is mandatory here; there are no jokes, and the longevity is high. Personally, I’ll stick with my old Kouros, and maybe later I’ll try a bottle of Anubis, which I liked even more.
The bottle has finally arrived, and it’s the first day I’m testing it 😊. What really caught my attention is the leather and oakmoss; they stand out much more than the other main notes. I’ll let you know more once I’ve worn it for a while.
Salomé is sexy, but not in the conservative or simplistic vision of Instagram fans. The opening is citrusy and conventional, yet not banal, as it serves as a prelude to a slow development of animalic notes nuanced by balsamic, earthy, and herbal aromas that aren’t individually identifiable but create unique sensations: sweaty skin in a rural setting, damp earth, and stable hay, all on a clean person with traces of tub soap. It’s a feminine skin scent, as it would be too rugged for men. It evolves elegantly, without exaggerations, revealing everything in its own time. It’s usable by men, but it shines more on women, inspired by an erotic dancer of the 1920s. Good projection without being intrusive and excellent longevity. It’s expensive but worth the quality. It’s not for drinking 800€ wine with a burger or seeking compliments; it’s for enjoying alone or with company, without fuss, always with you as the protagonist.
Salomé is sexy without falling into clichés or influencer trends. It starts citrusy and classic, but it’s not boring; it serves as an intro to a slow, paced development with animal notes beautifully balanced by balsamic, earthy, and herbal accords that don’t stand alone but create unique sensations. It smells like sweaty skin in a rural setting: damp earth, stable hay, all on someone clean with a tub soap scent. It’s a feminine skin scent, because on men it would feel too wild due to hormones. It evolves elegantly, without rush or sharp edges. It works on men but shines on women, just as the creator said, inspired by a 1920s dancer. Projection is good without being intrusive, and longevity is excellent. It’s pricey but worth it. It’s not for splurging 800 euros on wine after a burger or chasing compliments. Salomé is for enjoying, alone or with someone, without pretense or games, always with you as the protagonist.
Salomé is one of those fragrances that truly surprises. Based on the notes, you’d expect certain things, but they don’t happen that way. The opening is citrusy and sharp, refreshing with an aromatic lift; it might remind you of a more conventional, overused scent. But as it evolves, it takes you to a completely different level—an energetic presentation that opens the door to other scenarios. The citrus and aromatic top notes evaporate slowly but never leave the fragrance. The composition gains a floral character while keeping the fresh side alive, even as the animal and musky facets start to make their presence known. The heart, still carrying that aromatic accord, is primarily musky and soapy, with omnipresent moss and a well-integrated animal accord without any harsh edges. Everything is very wearable for a nose that doesn’t want to force others to deal with extremely complex scents. I don’t really detect the leather, or maybe it just doesn’t show up on my skin, but it doesn’t seem like a synthetic accord at all. Citrus, aromatic, mossy, musk, and a touch of soapy dirt. Nothing more. I really liked it. It has a distinctive character. I see it as more masculine, elegant, and addictive; it will work great in autumn and winter with exceptional performance. The price isn’t cheap, but in terms of experience, it’s worth it.
