Lights Across the Sky

1. This one quickly became a top scent of mine, love the combination of herbs, grass, tea, and vanilla! For me this one had better staying power than other stereoplasm scents I’ve tried. If you are a fan of “vanilla plus ___” scents such as Poesie’s Athena (Mediterranean herbs + vanilla) or a lot of Nui Cobalt’s catalog, or even the S92 spring releases I think you will be pleasantly surprised about the depth of this scent and the way it morphs. Basically, nuanced and not too sweet and easy to wear because it is soft and inoffensive! This one is a highlight of stereoplasm’s catalog IMO, and the 1.8 sample bottle is adorable

2. I got a touch of something dry and fennel first before it faded into Earl Grey and vanilla. I didn’t get any lavender from this. If Poesie’s Opening Chapter or Hex’s London Fog is meant for a rainy day, this is meant for a late spring evening that has an air of expectancy in it.

3. I get the Earl Grey and vanilla cream with some non descript floral. It isn’t obvious as lavender. There is a bit of something herbal, probably the fennel bulbs. Like most Stereoplasm scents it is very light in terms of throw so slathering is a must. I think I like it.

4. This scent is very ‘aromatic’, more sort of Earl Grey in theory rather that the stark bergamot and bitterness of the actual tea, with a good dose of vanilla sugar and lavender syrup. However, the wheat/musk and funnel combination results in a strange sort of green/earthy profile, paired with the strong muskiness, it turns a little too animalic for what I imagined was a strong lavender/vanilla aromatic scent, and takes me into a journey across a wheat field, carried by a large moose who’s just been sprinkled in lavender buds and vanilla sugar.
