Seule

Amber-bedewed skin musk, golden honey, vanilla cream, and a trickle of sugared lemon.

A couple years ago there was a Honeypot scent called White Honey, Lemon Peel, and Salt and this is it's softer, rounder sister. Tart lemon with a salted tang, drizzled in honey and cushioned on soft vanilla cream. Golden yellow, but in a mellow way. More a golden afternoon than dazzling summer sun. I love that Honeypot trio, so I'm pleased to have a flanker for it, since I never see it pop up in swaps! 

 

ETA: ooh the amber gets stronger over time and it's more like I layered WHLP&S over a glowing amber, which I'm definitely not mad about. So so pretty.

Fresh out of the mailbox, on first sniff I thought it smelled just like a Luper from three years ago, Penis Bound With Gold Ribbon, and in fact has mostly similar notes. I don't have it anymore to compare side by side - I sold it off because it didn't work all that well with my chemistry.

 

I was a little skeptical of this at first because of PBWGR, but after a few days of rest, Seule actually works better on me. The skin musk is the most prominent, which is what I was hoping for - warm, glowy amber underneath it, with just a touch of lemon. Delightful spring scent. Not a whole lot of throw, wonderful for canoodling.

 

I've also tried the previously mentioned White Honey, Lemon Peel, and Salt, but I thought that was a lot more bracing and tart than this. Another sister scent would be Sed Non Satiata - SNS is a lot more potent and more floral, but it has the skin musk.
