21
Eau de Parfum
by Costume National



The Scoop
Created in honor of the 21st anniversary of Costume National, 21 pays homage to the luxurious simplicity that can be found in the hypermodern and timeless creations of this Italian fashion house. 21, an alluring blend of understatement and sensuality, captures 21 favorite scents of the designer Ennio Capasa. The intriguing list of notes features milk and orange blossom, saffron and cumin, royal jelly and oud, moss and vanilla. Creamy, dreamy, enveloping, 21 is an olfactory vision in white. The tender floral top notes dissolve into the soft spiciness of the heart, where saffron mixes with patchouli, oud and olibanum in an accord of astounding depth and opulence. The sweet darkness of the base notes of tonka bean, vanilla and musk is the very epitome of comfort. At once astonishingly sensual and beautifully tranquil, 21 is destined to become a new cult favorite.
21 Notes

I wonder if we are smelling the same fragrance. I like spices, but this seems dominated by pepper (black peeper) on my skin. I don't get the "tender floral" in the opening, mentioned in the description. I am not sure about the 21 notes; it just doesn't seem so complex.

I was looking for a signature fragrance and this is in my top 5. It smells sweet and clean on my skin with a hint of vanilla and spices. It's kind of feminine but i can understand the unisex label. Not a summer scent really, this might make it on my fall wear list.

I really liked it when I first applied it. It starts off smelling very similar to Idole by Lubin. The cool down is totally masculine though. I still love it but only a man.

I like this..just not on a woman. This smells like a cologne I've smelled before. I'm not impressed.

This was a blind buy for me and I must say that it was well worth it. So far it is my favorite fragrance that I own. This would be ideal for cold weather but perhaps suitable for warmer weather if you only use a couple of sprays at most. I spray this on clothes so it can linger much longer.

This in INCREDIBLE! Truly one-of-a-kind. Im surprised it isnt getting more attention. As far as Im concerned, Luckyscent is right. It is destined to be a cult fav. Im a young girl and Im obsessed soi I really think this is genderless. Dont be scared ladies...it is intoxicating on a man or woman!!

OK - should I be concerned with all the posts that reference it as the perfect Men's scent (Read, I am female) or any frightful reference to Hillary Duff? YIKES! When I clearly was thinking it was a hot & sexy scent for women, BUT anyways..I still envison it's scent to a dreamy honey infused, sandlewood & incense filled night at an exotic & sexy local-albeit perhaps in an opium den (or what I imagine a sexy opium den to be!). I keep indulging in my own wonderful scent and can't help but to think those around me won't be far behind.

THIS ONE IS A KEEPER,its sweet, and with all of the different notes this is a great for daily use, there is only one setback,I want the scent to last longer, I have 15 different mens fragrances,and this is fanstastic, from first spray until drydown so if you are looking for a great mens scent and you have a flavor for having a large collection then ad this one to it you will be glad you did.

Incense and honey are two of my favorite notes in perfume. It feels like this scent was custom made for me. It's almost too good to be true. This is a heavenly honey/ incense combination with an undercurrent of milk, citrus sunshine, and spices. If you like it at all buy a bottle so hopefully it will never be discontinued.

WOW!! Why do I like this so much?Im addicted. When I first received this in a pack of samples I thought it was nice but not necessarily anything to swoon over. However, every time I went to try one of them out I always found myself reaching for that one. Then I realized-it isnt just nice-its AMAZING. I dont know if I get the milk scent but the overall effect is spicy, sexy mix with a hint of creaminess. I guess thats the milk because it isnt a dry spice/peppery scent-very comforting and warm. I can honestly see how this will become a cult fav. It reminds me of somehing along the lines of 10 corso como or costes but better...alot better (and I like those scents) Seriously, try it out and give it a chance. I bought a bottle a week later!!

Love love love this! I have been trying so many perfumes lately and nothing is grabbing me by the collar and saying Take me! But this one did! Gorgeous sexy smell, it has my favourite note in it - milk, but it's 100% sexed up with spices, patchouli, vanilla and all those other notes which make it totally appropriate for dirty nighttime rendezvous!! No but seriously, this is NOT a sweet milky scent, although I do love those too, Im so glad Ive come across something with creamy milk in it but in a sexy sophisticated concoction for when I dont wanna smell like a lolly, but I still want to be eaten!! ;) The best thing about it is that no one note takes over here, everything is blended to perfection. I could kind of describe it like something similar to Dior addict, that strong spicy scent which you can't really escape from, but with milk rounding it out. Also I sprayed this on my wrist and I still smelt it on my clothes 2 days later. Amazing staying power! ADD: just read about the comparisons to Hilary's with Love, well I have that and I like that too. There are similarities in the way the 2 scents are laid out with sweet stuff blended with spices. yes. But they are WAY different enough to warrant having both.

This is sooooo sexy I want to huff my own skin when I wear it. Got the sample today and I am definitely getting a bottle. I don't see the Hillary Duff anywhere in this. It's much more sophisticated and complex.

how can anyone compare this to hilary duff that is an insult!

Anonymous  - from LA/NYC



I agree with the reference to Duffs With Love though With Love is MUCH better than this scent. What I get the most from this is a strong milky vanilla sandalwood, that's it. And what's with cumin in a scent, do you want to smell like a taco? Doesn't matter here anyway as this scent is unremarkable for Costume National but brand aside would be nice for a sweet old man wearing a tweedy cap. It is reminiscent of old man aftershave which I am discovering I have a fetish for, but with that said this isn't my favorite of old man scents, but comforting nonetheless. Old man cologne fetish - yes, Costume National 90 dollars a bottle boutique worthy - no.

Utterly disappointed. I was expecting something unique considering the notes (milk, royal jelly!) and yet it smells similar to With Love..Hilary Duff. Maybe my skin is doomed to turn fine fragrance into celebrity swill, but there it is.
