I am quite excited about this because this isn't the first time we have reviewed on Maison 21G (read post here). I have always wanted to try out their workshops and was quite pleased to have an appetizer on how it is like. Maison 21G launched its latest scent - cashmere wood. If you have been following us for quite a while, you would know that we are quite into the woody vibe.
Cashmere Wood reminds me of a work in the forest. To me, the scent is fresh yet warm. There is something soothing yet distinctive about the scent. During the launch, we took a sniff at each and every ingredient in the blend. It is pretty interesting to smell how each scent interacts with each other to create the concoction.
To make it truly yours, Maison 21G recommends for the scent to be blended with on of its other 34 core scent. We did have a bit of short-cut by telling them our general preferrence. I preferred something more floral and sweet and was recommended Frangipani. The Hubs tried out ginger, even though he doesn't even take ginger, he was in love with the spicy scent.
For us, we only added one other core scent. I used to be very excessive. But now I believe that more isn't exactly more so I stopped at 1 (you can go for more cores by the way). Each 30ml bottle is priced at $95 and the bottle can be engraved to make it one and only. It truly makes a very luxurious gift.
Apart from the parfums, Maison 21G also allows you to customise candle scent. In historical time, fragrances were only reserved for the rich and powerful. Scents was used to boost statuses. If you have a scent that you love, you can also fill your whole house in it.
Personally, I found the shortened version of the perfume blending still very fun and encourage couples to have a go at it. To spice things up a little, make your other half blend his perfect smell for you. I am pretty sure the product which entice his nostrils would make you even more alluring when you spray it upon yourself *winks*
