About

Chief Smell is a budget aromatic fragrance from Perfume Parlour. It opens with Bergamot, Ginger, leads into a heart of Lavender, Geranium, and dries down to Tonka Bean, Cedar. The overall character is aromatic with citrus and warm spicy facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than a designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day. Note coverage here is light, so this profile is a best-effort reading rather than a deeply documented pyramid.
