DEIXIS EDP

Cozy and lovely

I bought the full size of Deixis after experimenting with a Fzotic discovery set. I’ve always been extremely picky about perfume, mostly because it always ends up smelling too pungent, has too much projection for my taste and/or will trigger allergies. Deixis is perfect IMO, it’s not too strong and it doesn’t project a ton, but it has staying power and I’ve gotten many compliments on it. No perfume headaches or allergies either. I love the warm and cozy feeling the scent evokes. I also love that it’s not clear perfume and the bottle design, both aestetically and because of the sprayer that doesn’t dispense a ton at once and does so in a fine mist. I fear Fzotic has ruined me because every perfume I’ve smelled after their discovery scent just smells basic or kind of cheap.

Had to buy another bottle

I was fortunate to get a bottle with the first release. I noticed that my husband was wearing it a lot so I hid the bottle in the medicine cabinet. Not sure how many releases they’ll do so I scored another bottle that I’m keeping for myself. This is an all year fragrance. Normally I stay away from anything vanilla but this works. More luxury than gourmand. Very complex with a powdery finish.

AMAZING and Green (literally)

AMAZING. There is something rich and unique to this literally green (juice) vanilla that I couldn’t get enough of. Is it styrax? Frankincense? It’s the nostalgic feeling of chewing gum in church, or a cabin you stayed in as a kid. Yes it’s sweet, but the herby note lifts the vanilla at the same time as it adds to the rich comforting fuzziness. I didn’t plan to buy Deixis but once I smelled it, it was full bottle time… even in late spring when this is decidedly a chilly weather smell. I am very excited to have it ready for fall, and to visit with it occasionally until then…
