perfume write-ups: clandestine laboratory

ashes, chiron, lost in time, film noir, silver

In a way that, perhaps, befits their name, I have zero recollection of where or how I heard of Clandestine Laboratories. Attempts to reverse-engineer how exactly I heard about them have ended in failure. At some point I just noticed their emails in my promotions tab, which suggests that I signed up for them, but maybe Boswell did. Who knows.

Their samples are pretty generous—you get 2.2 mLs for about $7 each in a nice little bottle (with a cap!). I’m sure there are plenty of reasons to do the little wand cap samples, but I really prefer it when I can spray a perfume sample.¹

I decided not to rank these—I liked all of them, and the reason I wouldn’t buy them is just the price of a full bottle, but… that price is fair! I just don’t have the money. I want to sample more from Clandestine Laboratories in the future, certainly.
