Discover the Layton and Its Captivating Scent Companions 


When it comes to luxury and unique perfumes, there's nothing that captures me like Layton and similar scents. I've tried and experienced a few standout perfumes that have the same signature charm as Layton. They all bring something different to the table and offer diverse experiences for different moods and seasons. Let me share my personal take on each of these fragrances.


A Bold Encounter with Layton Exclusif: Confidence in Every Spritz

Layton Exclusif is truly a masterpiece that feels both bold and elegant. As an oriental fragrance for men and women, it begins on my skin with a burst of fresh mandarin, bergamot, and a touch of almond, creating a clean and slightly spicy feel. As it settles, the animalistic civet and floral notes like rose and gardenia emerge, blending perfectly into a soft, sweet warmth. The base is rich with oud, coffee, and patchouli, ideal for colder days. It’s well-blended, long-lasting—about 8.5 hours—and has a manly elegance that makes me feel sophisticated and powerful.

Blue Mare: A Lively Splash of Citrus and Sea

Blue Mare is like a sea breeze captured in a bottle. This citrus fougère fragrance has a zesty, juicy opening with lemon, bergamot, and pink pepper, and on my skin, it lasts a solid 10 hours. After an hour, the sea notes and cypress come through strongly, giving off a courageous and fresh character. It’s lively and energetic, though it radiates intensely at first. For warm weather, Blue Mare is perfect, evoking sunny beach days with its crisp and juicy profile. It’s bold but has a certain refreshing charm that feels like a summer adventure.

 

Silver Marble: The Cool Elegance

Silver Marble is simplicity in its finest form. This woody fougère fragrance opens with cooling notes of icy lemon and sea water. It’s perfect for warmer weather, giving me the refreshing, airy feel of a cool ocean breeze. On my skin, it lasted around 8 hours, and as the musk and woody notes come through, it has a subtle marine feel that lingers. The simplicity of this fragrance is what makes it beautiful. It doesn’t overwhelm but instead evokes the sensation of ice melting on a hot day. It’s understated but leaves a lasting impression.


Fougere Emeraude: A Floral Journey with an Exotic Twist

Fougere Emeraude is a fascinating blend that keeps me guessing. With Indian tuberose, lavender, and Moroccan mimosa, it opens with a bright floral intensity. On my skin, it lasted for about 7 hours, and at first, I could distinctly pick out the tuberose. But as it settles, it shifts into something more nuanced—almost like yellow flowers blinking in and out of focus. The scent evolves into an incense-like warmth, rich and exotic, like being surrounded by Indian aromas. This fragrance has an unexpected twist, and its depth makes it suitable for any season.

 

 

Yesterday: A Nostalgic Blend of Spice and Freshness

Yesterday was an intriguing blend of spices and freshness. From the moment I applied it, I was met with a cozy cinnamon bun scent, which felt unexpected yet delightful. It has a vibrant opening with notes like cardamom, basil, and thyme, giving it a sharp, green freshness. The middle brings out lavender and cumin, while the base of vetiver, sandalwood, and tonka bean ties it together with an amber-woody foundation. It lasted for about 6 hours on my skin, radiating an intense, spicy energy. This scent feels masculine yet playful, perfect for mild weather with its comforting warmth.

Each of these perfumes has its own unique twist that makes it stand out. If you're a fan of trying new scents, I would definitely recommend checking them out - there's bound to be one that suits your personal taste.


Expert Stanislav point of view

The Layton Exclusif stands out with its bold transformation of the original Layton. While maintaining the apple and vanilla undertones, it introduces an earthy, oud-rich woodiness that feels raw and unapologetically masculine. This complexity elevates it, making it more mature and intriguing.

On my skin, its spicy, peppery water notes of Blue Mare feel energizing, offering a dopamine-like rush that’s both clean and adventurous.  I often combine it with sweeter scents for balance, but alone, it radiates bravery and resilience.

Silver Marble surprised me with its modern minimalism. Just two sprays are enough to fill a room, proving its strength.

I’m indifferent to tuberose, but Fougere Emeraude delivers a fresh, cold green experience that feels like mountain air. Lavender intertwines beautifully with gentle white flowers, softening the tuberose’s usual intensity. 

Lastly, Yesterday is a fragrance I adore. It starts bold with the earthy spiciness of vetiver and cardamom, then gradually sweetens with a delightful apple twist. Geranium adds a touch of floral balance without overwhelming the composition. This scent is invigorating and gently sweet, providing a comforting yet exciting experience throughout the day.

This collection showcases versatility, strength, and well-balanced complexity, making these fragrances ideal for those who appreciate multi-dimensional, evolving scents that leave a lasting impression.
