Seriously good modern fougere. I would venture to guess that it’s unpopular/lesser-known due to limited distribution and a hefty price per mL. House of Sillage is actually a pretty strong house in my opinion. Their growing line of men’s offerings are essentially their niche take on men’s “modern classic” styles. N.004 is their star fougere, and after spending some months and milliliters meticulously testing it, I have to admit how impressive it has been. The lavender-vanilla-citrus opening is juicy, but a little creamy-sweet from the more dominant lavender aspect. It has the rich “dense” feel of a true extrait concentration. This stuff genuinely develops on the skin. You will notice the citrus top giving way to the lavender-vanilla elements within the first two hours; afterwards, those two elements slowly give way the residual base over the next eight hours of the fragrance (which sticks exceptionally well to my skin for 12+). The “base” or dry-down is comprised of an incredible earthy, patchouli-oakmoss, peppery foundation which intensifies as the lavender-vanilla gradually fades (without ever entirely leaving). I’m extremely tempted to get a full bottle…
Take a gander at what all I’ve shared/tested with friends and family. House of Sillage’s N.004 is Top 10 for some, and if not for me, then certainly Top 20 at the moment! That dry-down progression is heavenly!

Strangely, the 100% dislike rating out of all 4 voters makes me want to blind buy a 3.3 of this… I just learned something new about myself.
But I like all 9 of those notes in the list, and I like the quality blends this house makes, so… I’m not ALL crazy…
to be continued…
