This scent is as sincere as a mother's love or the first burning flush of giving your heart to love another. Peach fuzz draws you closer, to rest your head atop the cosseting condensed milk and almond sweetness set against skin. Grounded by the warm notes of ambrette and saffron and the purity of white flowers intermingled with gentle creamy resinous qualities of sandalwood. This is a lulling scent that encourages you to nuzzle and caress.

Luscious peach nectar and ginger blossom nuzzle up to the soothing notes of warm milk, creamy ylang ylang and amber. Orris and saffron find their find their own strength amongst the balmy cream of coconut musk.

Have a look at Sincere's contradicting paired scent, Devious. Each pair is harmoniously crafted so that each highlights and subdues certain qualities of the other to create a unique third or fourth scent depending on which way round you layer.

Extrait De Parfum, 20% Oil Concentrate. Cruelty free and ecologically responsible.

 Contradictions in ILK Perfume | Scent City

Contradictions In ILK Perfumes. A brave, expressive, personal perfume experience.

A brand that want to inspire others to use their perfume to experience significant moments more deeply, to capture vivid emotions, and to help tell stories by engaging all the senses. Perfume doesn't have to be a Christmas gift, a huge bottle you tire of before you reach the end, a footnote in your beauty regime. It can and should be more - express yourself with scent.

Ilk is an old Scottish word with varied interpretations over the centuries, our interpretation is ‘the essence of who you are’. So Contradictions in ILK, is referring to the contradictions in who we are; which is exactly what we wish to celebrate with our collection of layer able scents inspired by human nature.
