WEWOREWHAT 001 Perfume Evaluate
For those who’re a fashionista, you’re probably accustomed to WEWOREWHAT, the style weblog and model created by Danielle Bernstein. Early final yr, I used to be launched to her first perfume, WEWOREWHAT 001 Eau de Parfum ($79), and let me simply say that it’s totally different than anything on my vainness. It’s additionally good for the winter season. Right here’s my trustworthy overview.
Bernstein says the woody-gourmand perfume was impressed by the luxuries of New York Metropolis—she needed one thing “acquainted but thrilling,” and it undoubtedly is. It’s very androgynous, it’s worn so effectively by each a assured lady (or man), and it’s long-lasting. “Scent has been an enormous a part of my life,” says Bernstein. “I by no means wore only a single fragrance and at all times blended no less than two when preparing. 001 is so genuine to my character…it’s barely unisex however extraordinarily horny and daring.”
Created by one of the vital in-demand perfumers within the trade, Jerome Epinette, the scent’s high notes embody creamy sandalwood, candy fig and cardamom; the guts includes coconut water, patchouli and musk; and the bottom notes are heat cedarwood and amber. The nice and cozy woodiness actually lingers all through the day—it’s not a type of scents that disappears in a pair hours—and I get compliments each time I put on it. Be aware: Although the fig provides a contact of sweetness, if you’re searching for a candy scent, this isn’t the one. Nevertheless, I’ve tried layering it with vanilla scents and it really works properly.

The “fake travertine bottle” and irregular, stone-like cap Bernstein selected are additionally not like something in my perfume assortment. The complete-size bottle is 3.4 ounces and there’s additionally a travel-size spray (0.33 ounces) for $28. Total, this can be a very distinctive scent, which I discover so refreshing within the sea of vanilla and gourmand perfumes we’ve seen flooding the market over the previous yr.
