Toskovat My Past Selves' Flowers is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by David-Lev Jipa-Slivinschi. My Past Selves' Flowers opens with White Tobacco, Tropical Fruit, Bromelia, and Tea, settles into a heart of Rhododendron, Opium, Nettle, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Resins, Oud, Labdanum, and Incense. Toskovat's My Past Selves' Flowers carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a wild ride, and proper love-it-or-hate-it stuff. You'll either get a melancholic, gothic floral masterpiece or a confused, rotten mess. Definitely try before you buy, but don't knock it 'til you sniff it.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

With moderate longevity and sillage, this isn't an overwhelming scent, but its unique and sometimes 'rotten' floral character makes it less suitable for formal or office settings. It shines best in casual or date environments where its complex personality can be appreciated without being distracting.

About

My Past Selves' Flowers opens with a perplexing yet intriguing mix of white tobacco and exotic tropical fruits, underpinned by the gentle, earthy nuances of tea and ginseng. As it evolves, the heart reveals a dusty, dried floral bouquet where opium and rhododendron mingle with nettle and peony, creating a bittersweet, almost haunting sensation. The dry-down settles into a smoky, resinous base of oud, labdanum, and incense, evoking the atmospheric depth of old memories and burnt-out candles.
