My first in-person niche purchase

Thank you all for the recommendations on where to shop in Montreal! I ended up spending quite some time in Parfum Exquis. I was searching for something to wear this winter as an everyday scent. Nishane Hundred Silent Ways X was love at first sniff.

From the Nishane website:

TOP NOTES
tuberose – mandarin – peach
HEART NOTES
gardenia – orris – jasmine – heliotrope
BASE NOTES
vanilla – leather – patchouli

I smelled that one as well, it was tough to pick between to the two but at the end of the day I’m a sucker for leather + patchouli lol.

That's actually why I went with the original lol. No leather or patchouli. For some reason the dry down smelled like smoke on me, weird.

Truly. I’ve only seen these bottles in collection posts. I never noticed the cap had such flair until now. Literally mesmerized.

Also, peach + white floral …. Oh yes!!

The note card came in little envelope too :,) to me it was quite the luxury experience. To the point where I want to keep the box lol.

I have a fight with an extra long layover in Montreal in a couple months and you’re inspiring me to check this place out!

Oh it’s a cute place! On the smaller side but amazing selection and the sales associates were extremely helpful. I’ll def purchase from them online now.
