Lilac scent recommendations?

[LePopPathetique]

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a scent that will sort of match my mood, but as options are so many I'm sort of lost on what to chose.

So even tho I'm a guy, I'm looking for something fairly feminine, funerary, flowery, very melancholic and to have lilac in it, as its my most favorite scent ever.

I'm going for something dark and vintage and to have that graveyard feel lol

 

Thanks in advance,

A.

In the General Catalogue (so you can get imps and see if you like them first), there are some really lovely lilac scents! It sort of depends on what other notes you might like with them. The one that immediately came to mind with this description was Les Fleurs du Mal (The scents of the blossoms of darkness, condensed into one perfume. Features a rose base, softened with lilac and wisteria). The three florals in it are really well balanced. You also might want to check out some of the scents in The Last Unicorn collection (Lady Amalthea, The Last Unicorn, The Lilac Wood), which are ongoing collections but not available as imps.

I would second the recommendation for Les Fleurs du Mal! It has a pale, melancholy feel that may be what you're looking for.

 

I have also been loving Eusapia from this year's Yules, which I have found to be a beautiful, true lilac. Perhaps not as funereal, but very lovely.

Thank you guys  I went with Les Fleurs du Mal and Lilac Wood in the end, I sense these would be up my alley

As someone who shares these tastes, I would definitely grab Dead Leaves, Dried Lilacs, and Labdanum from the Halloween collection before it sails away.

Silenti (VILF) absolutely captures a funeral feel.

Winter Night Figure on the Bridge from the Yules a couple years ago would scratch that itch if the mood recurs. Indigo musk, blackened lilac, wild plum rind, opium tar, tobacco flower, and snow. So gorgeous.
