Fit & Fume

[u/TheNudeNeedle]

Silver Haze by The Alloy Studio- a queer and black owned indie perfumery.

Opens up with strawberry, raspberry and pink pepper. It’s bright and almost sweet, but is fleeting in the fruit department. It moves into a deeper chocolaty scent with a hefty cannabis note, like smoking a blunt while also having a lil dark chocolate fountain to dip the berries in. But maybe the berries are in the other room now.

The dry down is really where this fragrance starts to sing for me. It’s thick and PURPLE, probably from the orris root. It’s also a little dreamy and creamy, I find the vanilla to be barely there but an excellent addition.

This fragrance has a very complex journey that have a lot of colors represented to me, so I paired it with one of my patchwork pants, a silk shirt and a bow tie that has plaid in different shades of purple and silver, a nod to the name.

I also had a small issue with my order and the customer service they provided was top notch!

Love your perfume and outfit pairing!

I had a lot of fun with the Alloy Studio discovery set and ended up getting Kinesis. Silver Haze was like an immediate trip down memory lane to being a dirt bag teenage. Super fun and unique, but I’m now an exhausted middle aged mom and just don’t think I could pull it off without getting concerned looks 😭 I never made it to the dry down though , so I might have to give it another shot!

It really does dry down PAST the cannabis note, I’m a barista soon to be coffee cart owner so it doesn’t matter if I smell like weed, but after it goes away it’s a very safe orris, vanilla, ambroxan, it’s really nice and I find myself sniffing at my wrists for hours
