Fizzy, fun, champagne-y, cognac-y, rose… I feel like I’m having a party at Marie Antoinette’s palais. Love it…

The Scornful Woman by Egon Schiele 1910

I’ll take the words of another reviewer who is judging it very well.
“Herbal, balsamic bandaid”
Fortunatelly it has soft sillage and soft projection. This is not a new smell for me. I’ve smelt a very cheap arabic scent at the flea market, gross. This is it only smoother.

I have been testing my sample of Nevermore before bed, as I find it rather dreamy and perhaps a little wistful, not anything like The Raven! An aside: Having seen a one-man show about the life of Edgar Allen Poe, as well as an exhibit in Baltimore, his home town, I love the guy, a crazy-brilliant fellow, completely dissed in his own time, becoming completely desperate, now of course a favorite son of Baltimore. So there’s the rose and Cognac Memorial aspect, fine.
For me, it is a kind of a well mannered brother of the wildly radiant Rose Barbare (which would have been a fitting name for a E.A.Poe themed perfume BTW), a ‘fume I love but don’t always find myself in the mood for while Nevermore is more welcoming. Rather more mild mannered than my usual faves, but somehow pulls me into the “comfort” zone. Must be my beloved nutmeg, saffron and cognac along with the rose, a rich vibrant yet cozy scent.

This is such an old-fashioned masculine fragrance. Yep, it gives me the feeling of when our grand parents was wearing it during 70s and 80s – just this kind of eau de colognes. No need to describe it as the previous reviewer has made a good description of the piramyd.

For long I have been searching for a Rose based perfume which a man could carry off and this is probably it. Inspired by the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, this gothic offering combines Rose with pepper, nutmeg, saffron, woods and aldehydes to create a rather potent fragrance that is mysterious and still at its heart a floral. This is definitely not everyone’s cup of tea but clearly a nice alternative to a Rose bomb like Black Aoud.

Apply with a light hand! It is very potent juice, but a little dabbed on the skin gives a beautiful waft of smoky rose.
Definitely in vein of Portrait of a Lady by Frederic Malle (which scent I adore) but distinctive enough to try if you’re a collector.

GROSS. This is bitter, herbal, balsamic Bandaid. It’s all about the Atlas Cedar and pepper with herbs thrown in. It is dry dry dry and ugly. How can anyone call this a floral aldehyde with rose in it??? I collect rose frags. It’s my favorite note. Since when do roses smell like Bandaids or medical bandages?

this is the big brother to Christophe celle calypso figue..nevermore is better, less harsh and more complex but they definitely both very similar

I love it! I get so much rose! Rose is the dominant note, and it’s gorgeous! I love men’s perfumes, and this one is great on me. The rose and pepper are to die for! Exciting and stimulating. Romantic and sensual. The nutmeg is delicious, and the saffron and wood give things a strength and grounding.
I find it lasts well – about 10 hours until I can hardly smell it anymore, but I love spraying it on again because I love the first hit. It’s lovely.

Loved the opening but somehow at the end it was extremely pissy or animalic or sweaty or urinal or maybe like moldy chairs or musicbox. Whatever. The opening is masculine and warm and wonderful….maybe something was wrong with my tester. Will try it again. BUT! The ending doesn’t justify the opening. At least not with me I have to love the WHOLE composition to actually pull the trigger. Lasted forever as well.

Roses, pepper, NUTMEG, honey, saffron, and sands with a bit of fresh addition (never citrus nor sport but mountain fresh). It is quite an interesting combination that mingles with my skin somehow.
Although i’m never a lover of neither red roses nor pepper but i guess the Nutmeg is the one that broke the spell of that combination! and maybe the help of honey & saffron. The nutmeg added that earthy, fertile, fresh, calming sand to the sharp combination of roses & pepper.
To be honest, i didn’t liked it when i first applied it on, but giving it more time made me realized how good this fragrance is.

For me it’s a composition about saffron and ash. I never receive a full bloom of rose, rather mere the metallic facet of rose which is cool out of other words. But the scent is too thin for a complete Perfume sometimes, so I often layer it as a Base to make me more decent. The Iso E Super overdose is ideal for boost floral or woody notes, thus its ideal mate should be something like Diptyque Opone or Charriol Platinum. The Nevermore-Opone combo is especially magnificent and preserves the most characteristics of these two saf-rose compositions, strongly recommended.

Since before getting my hands on Frederic Malle-Portrait of a Lady, I believe I have found its equivalent. Look nevermore-I mean, look “no more.”.
This is some AMAZING stuff and I love it! It opens with this buttery sweet peppery aroma that’s really smooth; although there is no mention of pine (NOT Polo pine) I do get a nice pine smell in the very beginning not to mention the undeniable, unforgettable rose as in POAL and then there is the dry down; a wonderful woody/rose with nutmeg and a slight musky feel and finally a sense of warmth that symbolizes exquisite taste; I think this is along the lines of POAL in my opinion. Thanks deadidol for the notion of similarity between the two.
If you get your hands on this….enjoy, because I am!!!
Nevermore, where have you been all of my life?

Nevermore is a scent of romantic conception as it is dedicated to a poem by Edgar Allan Poe, “The Raven”.
Each January 19th birthday of writer someone leaves three red roses and a bottle of cognac on his grave.
The main theme is rose but this pale rose and open metal by aldehydes, but he becomes strong, powerful and when mixed with spices begins to acquire dark shades and ink aftertaste. Drying woody and slightly sweet touch of amber and filled rounds providing excellent durability and a more than pleasing to the metal rose Nevermore drying.
It feels very comfortable, wearable and male peaks.
The final impression is that of wanting to accompany the scent of the rose with the smell of ink and paper that follows a book, cognac certainly represented by the scent of amber.
Very nice, conceptual and original work.

Shameless aldehydes and a quiet rose lurking in the background. This is much more unisex than the list of notes would suggest.
The opening is green (aldehydic green) and spicy – I get pepper and saffron mostly. It’s understated and a nice spin on a common use of ingredients.
The middle is a bit less understated. There’s a blast of Iso E Super that just sort of goes POW! out of nowhere. I don’t have a problem with Iso E Super as long as it’s not just used by someone who has thought “Need woods? Yeah, this’ll do”. And that’s how it feels like it’s been used here. It’s slightly jarring because it seems out of place with the original and subtle opening.
The final dry down shakes of the Iso E and becomes much more ambery. It goes back to being very nice again at this point.
I’d buy a full bottle if I could somehow remove that middle section.

the aldehydes in this are front and centre; no hiding these bad boys. unfortunately, so is the rose, and a sharp metallic accord is struck between the two. it’s the smell of metal dust and alongside the fatty/waxy qualities of the aldehydes, it comes across as a little, well, it’s a little unpleasant.
fatty, waxy, metallic and floral. for me, it only works sometimes but maybe others will get more out of it than what i did. nice enough…

This is a super-fizzy aldehyde with some bitter, citrus-like notes upfront. It’s definitely rose at its core, but it’s doing more than what you might expect from a standard rose scent. There’s a psychedelic feel to it—a shimmery kind of prismatic haze—but the opening is the most gripping part for me: it’s extraordinarily vibrant—perhaps to the point of silliness—but after that, it does become a bit mediocre. The aldehydes go flat; the rose just sort of hangs there, and a schlocky synth-wood base sheepishly emerges.
The Poe reference is a tad confounding though as it’s far more of a bright, modern thing than what the name infers. It’s certainly not a dark rose in the way that Gotham is a dark rose, and, in fact, I’d be more inclined to describe it as a dayglo affair. It reminds me a little bit of Malle’s Portrait of a Lady with an even more amped-up opening (yes, really). It smells like what I’d imagine it would feel like to be dressed head-to-toe in glow sticks or perhaps have LED lasers blasting out of your skin. A great Warheads-style fizzy opening followed by a standard-fare chemical cedar.

Rosa/noce moscata/pepe.
Una rosa crepuscolare, malinconica, antica.
Frapin nella realizzazione di questo profumo si ispirò alla leggenda del misterioso visitatore che lasciò sulla tomba di Poe tre rose e una bottiglia di Cognac.
Il mood è proprio questo.
La rosa è intensa, “letteraria”, che predispone a meditazione ed introspezione.
Per chi ama fragranze profonde e non facili.
Bella e interessante.
Persistenza circa tre ore.
Aggiornamento: spruzzata sui capelli la fragranza si espande meravigliosamente per molte ore..
Sento una grande sensazione di benessere e di gioia.
Approfondisco e leggo che la noce moscata per la sua azione stimolante è da secoli considerata eccitante e afrodisiaca, inoltre questa spezia (se assunta in dosi eccessive…ovvio) può addirittura provocare alterazioni di coscienza e allucinazioni….??!! Ora capisco…
Continuo a respirare questo profumo…E’ davvero FAVOLOSO.
Lo acquisterò quanto prima. <3

One of the most boring scents I have experienced in a long time. Loads of Iso-E Super, laced with something inconsequential. Made me wonder why anyone would waste time, money and effort to create something so very bland.

I have not tried many aldehyde scents and now I don’t want to try anymore! I used to work at Radio Shack over 10 years ago. This smells like infested electronics! People used to come in with amplifiers ,stereos and all other kinds of electronics. They would want them repaired after roaches or other creatures had chewed through the wiring, circuit boards and other electrical components. They would ask if it could be repaired with no shame! How!! Just by a new one and let it go. This scent is one that disgust me almost as much as Kouros! The dislike bar is not a lie!

If the words aldehydic and floral make you think about big feminine fragrances of the past, then you have to try Nevermore because this is neither an old school composition, nor a feminine one. Not at all. I’m a big fan of both old-fashioned fragrances as well as big florals but this thing here, it’s not what you would expect after reading the notes. I’m generally not obsessed by gender classification but sometimes there are fragrances that I find particularly suitable for a specific gender. Well, in this context, Nevermore leans definitely towards the masculine side of the spectrum in my perception….and it’s extremely modern.
It opens with a blast of green and sparkling aldehydes supported by woody-spices (nutmeg and pepper). A pretty common accord for those who are familiar with brands such as Comme Des Garcons and the likes, but so well executed to immediately catch my attention. A sort of non-floral rose breaks in and, together with saffron, introduces a darkish, kind of leathery note. The rose(s) here, which represent the real essence of this fragrance, have very different different and opposite facets ranging from pale and transparent to dark and woody. With all the due exceptions made, I’m generally not a fan of rose-centered fragrances but Nevermore is really so easy to like while the light/dark juxtapositions going on throughout provide quite some entertainment.
My only concern is about the drydown which compared to both the striking opening and the entertaining middle-phase, feels a bit too…generically woody-musky, maybe? Probably not something I would go out of my way to get a bottle of but if you like modern masculines with a twist, give this a chance because it’s very nice. Decent projection and good lasting power.

A very quiet rose . Similar to Tea Rose from Perfumer’s Workshop but quieter, less green , with a great note of cedar in basenotes . A meditative rose , androgynous . With a sensation of a cloud of powder at the end
