Flower's Barrow

Comments about Flower's Barrow Perfume:

As my favourite Breath of God was running low, I was really excited to head to a local store where the new Gorilla line was featured on tour. All of the scents were totally likeable! Flower's Barrow ended up being my favourite.

Right out of the bottle, it smells very green and leafy, with a little bit of spice. Once on the skin, the fresh-plant smell (which I find lovely) mellows down into a much softer, floral-y scent. It's not too sweet, which I really like. It reminds me of my grandparents' forested back yard, with trees and weeds and flowers and a little creek running through. It's really an excellent perfume; very different from the mainstream, and Gorilla perfumes always are!

When I first tried this it had a very medicinal smell in the bottle and when I put it on at first, but then it dried down to a nice unique floral. I really like the scent now and like another reviewer stated it is very similar to blousey shampoo. I even like this one better than Sikkim Girls in that it is a different, not so sweet floral and for it's lasting qualities.

At first when I put this on it had a very overpowering medicinal, liniment, cough drop smell (almost eucalyptus). To the point of ugh, I'm going to smell like a grandma with BenGay on! But when it dried down the medicinal smell went away and it turned into a nice floral. I will probably need to go back and try it a second time to see if it does the same thing before I commit. I'm so glad for the on tour so I can smell how these perfumes are in person (and on my person :)). Seems to last longer than Sikkim Girls and is a different kind of floral.

Very clean smell.

I ordered this because there wasn't an affordable size of Devil's Nightcap. I was really surprised at the unique and earthy tones in this scent. The reviews left me to believe that the "flower" portion of the scent would come out after a while but I have not noticed it. I do not find that to be a problem though. Mostly, I just use this like regular perfume. I put it on my wrists and throat. Unlike many scents, this did not give me a headache. That was a real plus.

Comments about Flower's Barrow Perfume:

This smells like a warm summer night with flowers and a hint of sugar in the air. After its been on your skin for a while it turns into a more musky scent. Like an old book use to press flowers, but not in a gross way. The only problem I had with this is that I ordered the 0.8 bottle because I thought that the dropper would be really cool to use, but they don't actually come with it. It just had a regular metal cap on it:( So if you are ordering the 0.8 bottle don't expect a cool dropper on the lid.

Comments about Flower's Barrow Perfume:

I was very hesitant about this product. I hadn't been hearing the best things about the perfume line. I, as a guy, was a little hesitant as well of the more floral scents. I smelled a lot of the line and decided that i'd give this one a go.

I usually can't stand the smell of floral perfumes, but this one isn't overwhelming! which is perfect for me. (the smell mellows out and becomes a beautifully subtle floral scent).
I'm definitely going to start trying even more of these scents... I'm personally a karma fan, so I think the Sun might be a next step for me.

I find that it smells very similar to the smell of washing with Blousy Shampoo. I really like it. It makes me think of Springtime, big soft petals in a grassy park next to the water.
