Re: Niche with the best SILLAGE

Hey, i find these to be most reliable across the range generally:

serge lutens

federic malle (but super expensive where i am, hopefully not so for you)

guerlain (all the oldies, most of the newbies)-not sure it falls under niche though

Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier ! (i noticed that's what you're wearing right now )

L'artisan is touch and go with some of theirs

Parfumerie Generale ( also bloody expensive where I am)

Hi Alkida,

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.845.jpg Escentric Molecules Molecule 01



I bought molecules 01 (which is really ISO E super) if worn on its own it has a very light clean green woodland like smell and people seem to love it but you yourself probably won't be able to smell it very much, some do some don’t. It's a chemical used in perfume to create sillage so if you layer Molecules 01 with the perfume of your choice it's brilliant and amplifies the sillage even more. You can also buy ISO E super at a chemist or I expect over the internet quite cheaply it would cost a lot less than purchasing M01. As it is a recognised perfumers chemical it is safe to use so shouldn’t be too hard to get hold of. It works for me, every time. Other than that warmer skin temperatures can make a difference, applying to pulse points helps and for some perfumes you will find a body cream available using both cream and perfume will boost sillage. Also different strengths of perfume can make a difference I would expect an extrait to have greater sillage than EDP and EDP to have greater sillage than Eau de Toilet or cologne. Hope I've helped a bit and given you a few ideas to try, have fun!

Re: Niche with the best SILLAGE

Montale and Byredo also have individual fragrances with great sillage although it is important to mention that a whole house can't have 'best sillage' as we must judge each individual fragrance for it's strength.

You will smell this one on your clothes, sheets, pillowcase etc. for a long time, even after you washed them. My favourite scent!
