Scent Bar Staff Video Review for Graphite

Video Transcript

Graphite by Mad et Len is inspired by tools of creativity used in an artist's studio. Picture pencil shavings and chalk and paper and graphite that you use to draw with. I love the concept and the inspiration behind this, but what I really love is how this wears on skin.

I would call this a minimalist, incensey, woodsy, slightly peppery scent. It's simple and soft and pretty. I was surprised at actually how long this lasted on skin and I actually got a pretty good seage when I wore this and I actually got complimented, which is always a good sign for me.

I think it's really beautiful if you're kind of craving something easy, woodsy, a little bit clean, a little bit smoky, and kind of chic and sophisticated, I would try Graphite by Mad et Len.

Smoke and woods. I love this scent.

Not sure what I was expecting from this scent and not sure how to describe it either. It is a bit woody, a bit nostalgic from way back in kindergarten when I remember my teachers banging the blackboard erasers together outside creating clouds of chalk dust. But it didn't wow me and didn't create enough of a statement or garner any compliments to want to keep wearing it.

It takes a minute to assemble itself, but this odd thing -- slate, chalk dust, cedar, linseed oil (!), waxed leather -- is utterly not perfume-like, in the best possible way. It skirts mustiness but is far too dry to fall into that trap; instead, there’s a cool gravity, like pressing one’s cheek against a stone wall. Even in my small collection of mutants, this one stands out.

A lovely monochromatic riff on the wood and lead in pencil shavings. It has a moderate, subtle sillage and lasts for a moderate amount of time. I love to pair it with Poivre Colonial by Phaedon.

total scrubber. Obviously super subjective but this smelled like barbecue potato chips. And not those hella dope Kettle brand. Give it a shot if you must but if you're looking for somethings smoky and woody, this just smells way too synthetic to be worthwile

Sharp cedar wood at the start, then it kind of mellows into a really nice, ashy/smoky modern leather fragrance. Doesn't project much, more of a skin scent, but I like this a lot.
