Not worth the $35 and smells like bad men's cologne
I bought a sampler for $35. Not worth it at all. Bottles are SUPER small. The other issue is they all smell bad. These smell like men's cologne. I tried Kiawah first, smelled like patchouli and not the notes described. I tried Cloudland, same thing, nothing like the notes listed and smells like a man. None of these smell feminine at all. I'm so disappointed and it was a waste of money.

The marketing really drew me in—the descriptions made the fragrances sound clean, earthy, organic, and sophisticated, like the smell of soil and the air after rain. The copy is beautifully written and honestly sounds like poetry.
Unfortunately, the actual fragrances were nothing like what I expected. To me, they smell very strong, overwhelming, and synthetic. One of them especially reminded me of Carolina Herrera Bad Boy, which is the opposite of the natural, understated fragrance experience I thought I was buying.
I spent around $40 on the sampler set, which turned out to be just five very small vials. I also discovered afterward that the sampler set is not eligible for return or refund, even if the fragrances simply don’t work for you.
For the price, I definitely don’t think the sampler is a good value, and I can’t recommend it based on my experience. Great marketing—the words absolutely draw you in. The product itself, unfortunately, did not live up to them.

Deleting Negative Reviews
I was hooked by their instagram marketing, and I bought the full sample set. Their fragrances are not original at all; some of them smelled like bath&bodyworks scents. No shade to b&bw, but obviously there’s a huge price difference.
I wouldn’t have a problem with this, but I left a 2-star review that never showed up on their website. They definitely delete all of the negative reviews.
Don’t buy from this company! They are not worth the price point.

They make low quality dupe fragrances…
They make low quality dupe fragrances and market themselves as niche high end brand. They won't let verified buyers review the product after buying it. They delete negative comments.
Stay far away.

Cheap stinky stuff. Good ads. Bad product!
Ads are sure enticing! The scent combinations sound lovely. I took the bate and bought the sample pack, carefully choosing the ones I’d like. When it arrived quickly tried Cloudland. Was blasted by a strong weird scent, immediately wiped it off. Soon had to wash it off with soap and water. Even the after scent was that typical cheap powdery smell and I knew I had gotten suckered punched. Reached out via email to find there’s no refunds. Deeply disappointed. No ingredient list on website. Wish they’d spent their $$ on product instead of advertising! I’d call it a huge PASS. Don’t waste your $$!

Clever marketing, cheap fragrance
I fell for this company's clever marketing. I spent about $50 on a sample set plus an extra sample of calle ocho. The fragrances were cheap and chemically smelling, with very masculine scent. All of them smelled similar and masculine. The social media marketing I saw were all from females and so very positive. I could have put that $50 towards a better fragrance. I should have checked reddit first. No returns on the samples.

Cheap Scented-Candle Fragrances
Yet another "boutique, fine fragrance" company marketing flowery, colorful descriptions of scents while bottling and selling the cheapest smelling, low quality fragrances imaginable at an inflated price. Literally smells like scented candles and chemicals. No nuance, no depth, just marketing.
Ordered the discovery set of 5 samplers...not a single one of their "best sellers" have any class. Would not recommend, so many other infinitely better fragrances out there.
