Is La Myrrhe suitable for daily wear?+−
While it can be worn daily by those who enjoy avant-garde scents, the community generally favors it for evening use or leisure. Its complex, resinous character is best suited for cooler weather in the fall and winter.
How does this compare to traditional "old school" perfumes?+−
Many users compare it to a classic floral-aldehyde structure, such as Chanel No. 5, but with the florals removed and replaced by a heavy concentration of myrrh and aniseed. This makes it feel both vintage and experimental.
Is this a masculine or feminine fragrance?+−
It is marketed for both men and women. Men often find appeal in the medicinal, resinous, and woody sandalwood notes, while women may appreciate the sparkling aldehydes and powdery musk.
Does the aniseed note make it smell like licorice?+−
The aniseed provides a spicy, cool edge that contributes to the medicinal feel of the scent, but because it is blended with heavy resins and amber, it does not come across as a gourmand or "candy" licorice.
