Whiskey
by Commodity
Whiskey by Commodity delivers a soft, aromatic-woody scent with prominent lavender, powdery violet, and creamy vanilla notes, creating a gently sweet and slightly smoky impression. The opening features black currant and plum, offering a brief fruity burst before settling into a smooth, woody base of cedar, mahogany, and vetiver, layered with amber and vanilla. While the name suggests a boozy, whiskey-rich fragrance, it lacks the bold, warm liquoriness associated with actual whiskey. Instead, it evokes a vintage, slightly medicinal elegance reminiscent of classic French perfumes, with a dry-down that mingles floral powdery notes and aromatic woods. Its light and moderate sillage makes it ideal for cooler seasons and intimate settings, particularly in evening wear.
Pros
- +Becomes a pleasant, wearable personal scent with a balanced, creamy dry-down
- +Boasts a surprisingly long longevity despite being described as moderate
- +Has a soft, unisex character that leans subtle and elegant, not overbearing
Cons
- −Falls short of capturing a true whiskey aroma, making the name misleading
- −Feels dated or synthetic by some, with a thin or fleeting initial impact
- −Lacks standout character or uniqueness for repeated use
