If you like cardamom, this is for you, but personally it’s too reminiscent of curry. A well crafted fragrance.

I'm a fig scent enthusiast and this is the sexiest fig and tea scent I've come across. I found it slightly too spicy and masculine for my taste, but it's divine on my husband. I'd describe this as a spicy, woody, and cozy fragrance great for cooler days.

Unexpected hit. I wanted Rouge Smoking, adult cherry cola scent that I love, but I thought this would be fun, so I tried it. THIS IS BETTER! Fig and black tea are absolutely what I'm getting. I don't like black tea, I don't really wanna smell like bourbon, but somehow with everything together you smell like the boss at a powerful law firm everyone wants to sleep with.

A long time lover of fig fragrances, I finally got a sample of this fragrance while I am exploring my sandalwood era because so many people have talked about the dry down of this fragrance and its creamy sandalwood. Let's just say I tried many other fragrances that have much more sandalwood than this. On me, the fig, cardamom, and tea are the most prominent. It's pretty and won't offend anyone because its unlikely they'll even notice you're wearing it due to a very close projection and sillage.

Gris Charnel by BDK Parfums possesses a universal allure that's hard to resist. Its composition resonates in a way that strikes a chord with a vast array of scent enthusiasts. While many fragrances divide opinion, Gris Charnel seems to be the harmonious note that bridges diverse preferences. However, for those of us deeply embedded in the world of niche fragrances, it doesn't quite offer that enigmatic olfactory journey we often seek. While its charm is undeniable and its quality evident, it might not transport you to the intricate, layered worlds that niche fragrances typically do. Nonetheless, its widespread appeal is a testament to its beautifully crafted aroma. It is an excellent addition for anyone seeking an agreeable, everyday scent.

This scent seems to be so polarizing, and I'm glad everyone isn't wearing it lol. This is a beautiful fig, sandalwood, tonka, jammy, cardamom, tea masterpiece with a sensual, creamy dry down. Absolutely not a gourmand, but completely delicious, sexy, and addictive. For those curious about the difference between this and the extrait, the extrait leans decisively more masculine to me. It's got an aftershave type opening note, and the dry down is very similar but leans more woody. I get no smoke, ashtray, or cheap perfume notes here. Spectacular.

This is a nice perfume... It smells nice... I like it. I would not however buy a full bottle of it... it just doesn't evoke anything inside me... It's simply nice.

One star is being generous. Received a sample of this and it smells like ash tray. I don’t understand the hype around this scent, but eww. I feel this way about many of the Creed fragrances too. Yuck.

The perfume itself smells amazing as I am very familiar with BDK products. As far as the sample bottle I am not satisfied with it because the quality is very poor and cheap. I’d recommend having a regular sample bottle that allows us to spray on our clothes and bodies instead of having a bottle with no head spray. Using my finger to sprinkle the liquid on it is so inconvenient. Please change your sample bottles and use better ones. Also regular samples are 2ml, there was less in the bottle.

Smells like Pepsi! ?? I like it!

You had me at "Gris."

I received a sample of this fragrance and I am glad I did not blindly buy the full bottle. I am not fond of "dirty" scents.

Extra pumps of blue coconut syrup over shaved ice. Blue coconut syrup stained teeth. Looking out at the cold rain from your window; pretending to be in a sad music video; wearing a warm soft grey Loro Piana cashmere sweater. ??Love

Oh my goodness I love this frag so much. This is definitely cardamom forward on me, with the other notes on the edges bumping up the delicious creaminess. The longevity is absolutely astounding. I put it on yesterday in the late afternoon and it's 9:30 in the morning the next day and I can still smell it.

Spicy, jammy, fig&apple tart. What other people are describing as cream my nose is interpreting as butter more than anything else, which sounds weird but does work. And yet, with all of the above, this only alludes to gourmand. This is gourmand in the way Alice Waters or Samin Nosrat's *kitchen* might smell when crafting a magical dessert — with a window open and some unknown spicy floral wafting in — but not gourmand like you're wearing dessert.

Beautiful creamy and sweet wood with difficult to describe cozy/comforting vibe. It smells definitely luxurious and a little bit tea like ?? Amazing experience worth the price.

I loved the sample I got of this, but I don't feel like the bottle I bought is quite the same. It has the same lovely opening notes of fig and cardamom, but then it dries down to a super cloying, almost dirty smell. I suspect it's just not combining well with my body chemistry, but I'm not sure why that didn't happen with the sample. I wonder if they changed the ingredients slightly? Either way, it's nice upfront and hopefully works better on other people.

I was so tempted to blind buy the whole bottle based on Demi Rawling's reviews of this. I love and swear by most of her reccommendations, but after looking up the note breakdown, I thought it'd be wise if I sampled it first. I was so blown away with how this smelt! I honestly was not expecting to like this. A beautiful slightly sweet, powdery, woody scent that isn't too light and airy, that has some depth to it. It's not too overpowering and strong, and it lasts about 4 hours on my skin. It feels like a very versatile fragrance to me, I personally would wear it any season. I think I've found my signature scent and I can't wait to buy the full bottle of this beauty.

Whiff Whiff.. Reminds Me Of A Ole Time Fragrance From Henri Bendel Fig.It just won’t step down from straight Foward smelling fig aroma.
By   - Funeral Director  from Hunt Valley on 1/7/2021
I bought a full bottle of this after sampling it. It is my favorite cold weather fragrance right now, Spicey, ceamy fig with a slightly powdery iris. I love the sandalwood, which probably adds to the creaminess. Not overly sweet, which I really love, Longevity is a monster! On me, 10 hours. On clothes, 24 hours. Definitely unisex.
