The scent is overwhelming with vanilla. So much it reminds me of vanilla used in baking.

This scent is refined however, the caramel notes paired with orange make this scent absolutely cozy and delicious!

This fragrance definitely smells like vanilla, if you love the smell of vanilla you will definitely love this!

I wasn't sure about this at first, but I like it. Kind of warm

It smells like wood

I love this scent.. woody vanilla.. I get so many compliments

I wanted to love this based on all of the notes and such. But it was just a bit too strong and musky.

I picked this because another reviewer recommended it over Animus Dulcis. The initial burst of vanilla dissipates quickly, and the soft woods linger. I initially smell the bittiness of the juniper berry oil, but the fragrance settles in rather quickly. I refresh about 4-5 hours after the initial spray and find the fragrance pleasant and easy to wear. Very nice for fall and winter and a good match for this mountain girl.

Just enough of a vanilla note to add warmth but not too much sweetness and marries well with the woody base.

Loving this deep woodsy perfume!

This scent is....ok. I think it is actually more suited for men. it has a strong musk and spice to it, whereas I need a bit more fruit or floral to balance that out.

I don't get anything besides a creamy, high quality vanilla that settles to a skinscent within a half hour. Does last a long while, just doesn't project at all. If you prefer discreet fragrances and like vanilla, could be a winner.

Love!! Very nice sweet fragrance

Warm, sexy vanilla

I could never get over how overpowering the vanilla scent was, that’s all I could smell. I ended up giving it away because I couldn’t stomach it.

Smelt bad

I love masculine-leaning 'fancy parlor' scents, vanilla tobacco and a glass of scotch, worn leather armchair, old books on fine wooden bookshelves recently cleaned with lemon furniture polish. This one is not shy with the vanilla, and on my skin turns a bit gourmand without losing the woody vibe.This is very similar to Memoirs of a Trespasser by Imaginary Authors. I honestly don't know which one I like more. Both great.

A wonderful unisex scent, I get a little hit of citrus with the opening notes, but mostly this is an almost-sweet, soft scent. It's main notes are woody and spicy, but not in a bold, Raw Spirit's Wild Fire kind of way (another awesome woody spicy scent if you want one bolder and drier than this). This one is like a woody lightly spiced Cloud, or a very mild incense. I put this on my wrists and fell asleep relaxing to this comforting aroma when I first received it.

Was really surprised, smells nice. The scent last for a long time. All you need is just a little. Will be getting this again.

This is a STRONG scent. It’s very vanilla-y and feminine. It’s more of a “spray in the air and walk through it” type of perfume. If I used more than that, it would give me a headache. If you don’t overdo it, it’s a pretty and girly scent.

This smells exactly like it’s described. I see a 1950’s lounge singer crooning beside a grand piano while classy men and women hold a cocktail in one hand and a smoke in the other. It’s a warm scent reminiscent of vanilla and whiskey by a wood burning fire. An understated and sensual sweet smell with a little edgy smoke. Very nice.

It smells horrible on me

great unique scent

Smelled bad

The over abundance of vanilla makes it seems too feminine. unless you like sweet smelling colognes (I know this technically isn't a cologne anyways) leave this one for the ladies.

Didn't like the smell

Smells good but it is almost not noticiable. Goes better on my wife, but that doesn't mean it's a women fragance. Sweet, I felt the vanilla almost all the time.

I am really impressed with this scent. Nothing harsh, but it lasts for hours. The dry vanilla and woodsy scent is mild and the citrus and juniper give it enough lift without overtaking the other notes. Awesome stuff! Ages 21 and up would appreciate this the most.

Light fresh and original.

Vanilla and wood, I get chocolate, and so do a lot of people I show this one to, I don’t ask if they smell it as to not suggest it. One of my favorite if not the favorite from scent bird so far. I’ve got myself in a weird spot ordering niche fragrances I don’t understand, this was a nice break from complex and exotic. It still is but it’s so much more likable than anything I’ve got (niche ish wise) that’s my fault completely :)

very vanilla

Too strong, not feminine enough for me

I really like the woody, earthy vanilla this dries down into. Its subtle and soft.

This. This is sexy and smooth and exotic. When I first smelled this I knew I needed more. I get comments everywhere I go

Sophisticated & strong!

Too much of a menly smell

I knew I loved this scent but it wasn’t till I noticed that I was only using it sparingly on the weekends that I realized how much. I wasn’t spraying randomly I was trying to conserve it. Definitely dropping the $195 for the full bottle.

This is almost a perfect scent for me but its has a slight roughness to it mixed with a sweetness. Im not sure if i love the roughness or if it misses the mark for me. But i genuinely believe this was almost perfect. Idk just something about it that doesnt make me want to FULLY commit. ALMOST THOUGH lol! Also this goes for $195 on the company's websites 🤯

Smelled too strong of one thing

Nice fresh compliment getter!!

This is what I call my vanilla perfume. It smells like vanilla mostly. Maybe some woodsy notes thrown in there. This scent could be unisex, I feel. It smells great on me but I think a man could also pull it off. It’s a great scent to wear when the weather is cold.

I chose this scent, based on the reviews that say it is very sweet. I disagree, although it eventually wears to a dry vanilla scent. Initially it is very strong (tickles my nose) with a heavy musk. I like it more each time I wear it.

Was hoping for a complex scent on the earthy/spicy side, but this is very mellow and sweet.

It smelled like tobacco and dust on me

I like it, it's sweet and you can smell the vanilla. Normally I don't like vanilla scented things but this one is nice.

Far too sweet

It just didn’t mix well with my body chemistry

This is a gourmand scent for me. Very lovely vanilla scent... smells great on me AND on my husband!! Love love love it!!!

Loved the overall scent-how vanilla was present but not in a cloying, overbearing manner. Lasted a decent amount of the day for me, and my wife really liked the smell of it.

Terrible smell

opening is definitely a bit bitter and citrusy, it soon mellows to a lovely dry vanilla. doesn't project a lot, just a nice scent bubble, but very nice fragrance.

Heavenly!! Using sparingly as I will have to buy full size when this vial is gone!

It’s strong and not in a good way.

It was a pleasant smell not to strong i woukd probably use it during the end of summer into early fall the fragrance lasted a long time as well :)

When I first spray it on it seems a little musky and herb like, but after about 30 seconds it changes to a warm sweet scent...perfect for fall and winter!

I love this scent and I will be purchasing the full sized version. My boyfriend wasn't too fond of it, though. He prefers sweeter smells and this was a little bit spicy and musky. I still love it though.

A great vanilla scent, nice and warm.

If you love vanilla, then you’ll love this one. Great for every season. A nice twist on a classic...

LOVE LOVE LOVE this scent! However it doesn’t last all day. I usually have to reapply in the late afternoon

Nope, nope, nope

Like a summer’s breeze. Makes you feel fine. Going through the jasmine in your mind.

I liked this one a lot

By far, besides Prada Candy, this is my FAVORITE scent! It’s also now my signature scent!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic niche fragrance. The opening of pink peppercorn is really quite amazing. I can still detect this after wearing it for 9+ hours. At the very end of its life it dries down to almost pure vanilla. Love it.

I love the layers of sweetness and mild, clean smokiness in this scent. Vanilla is definitely the key player, but it's not a young, sweet vanilla. The woody, smoky notes really ground the vanilla without overwhelming it. Will absolutely buy again.

meh. no memory of this one tbh

My new favorite. This is sexy with hints of a smokiness. I am obsessed. There is nothing that compares. It is my new go to.

I love this scent! Woody, like in a carpenter's workshop all day or a new house that's being build. I thought about the architect standing with the blue prints in hand, wearing a bright warm scent (hints of vanilla and lemon peel) watching his or her new design going up. Great unisex scent. I would have give 5 stars, but this scent lasted about 2 hours and was gone. I sprayed my skin and my clothes just to see if one would last longer. Nope. Too bad. I think I will need to layer it with something else in order to have a lasting scent or just reapply throughout the day.

Scentbird has the WORST customer service. They shipped the product to the wrong address. Scentbird promised to send replacement on them. Still no product or refund!

I dig the feminine outdoorsy scent of vanilla and the woods. It’s probably how Arwen smelled in Lord of the Rings.

This is probably the best smelling cologne I’ve used in a long time. I’m definitely going to be buying the actual bottle. It does smell rather sweet though so if you’re turned off by that don’t buy it. Smells a lot like amber and musk with a hint of sweetness. My wife loves it.

Love, love, love this scent! It’s rather sweet. Not like Bath&Body works lotion but sweet non the less. I spray one squirt of this and layer it with one squirt of Rag N Bone ‘Oddity’. The combination is great. One is sweet, the other is musky. Great for fall!

It have a very strong, sweet smell. It definitely lasts a while, but it is a little too overwhelming.

Ok. I have a confession. I love smelling like I just left my boyfriend's house and used his cologne before stepping out. I love men's scents but with a touch of warmth and sweetness (just a touch!) This scent....THIS SCENT. Ooh it made me purrrr. It smells RICH. This is a wealthy scent. It smells like money is not a concern for you. It was perfectly androgynous. PERFECTLY. Its warm and has distinct rummy, smoky, muskiness to it which was PERFECT for ushering the crisp cool fall months, with my tweeds and turtlenecks and booties. Im considering maybe a bottle, or maybe adding it again to my queue. I love it. It really blended seamlessly with my personality, and that is what scents should do.

SUPER SENSUAL, SEXY, INTRIGUING, CAPTIVATING & SHALL LEAVE EVERYONE YOU PASS ENAMORED!!!!! THEY'LL KNOW YOU'VE ARRIVED!!!!!!

Pleased with how this turned out, I worked about it being too old/bar/smoke smelling. It's feminine and the vanilla is just right (this is my first perfume with vanilla in it in 10 years). It is sophisticated and the longest lasting scent I've received from Scentbird yet. This is what I signed up for, it's like a nice warm vanilla latte.

Didn't like the smell it like an older person scent

I love the citrusy opening notes, but they dont last long. After about 10 minutes the scent gets very "cool" and woody rather than warm and woody... it's kind of dry. Then it turns sweet with amber and vanilla and I love it again. That seems to last the longest on me.

This is not a scent I'd normally even pick up at the store and try, I go for the more girly, fruity or vanilla scents. I was pleasantly surprised at this perfect for fall parfum. It opened up with the citrus, then shifted to a woodsy, vanilla scent. I could definitely picture a group of architects gathering for cocktails in an Art Deco smoking room reclining in leather chairs, sipping martini's. I like this scent and am looking forward to hearing what others' around me think about it on me. It is a nice fall or evening scent.

I love vanilla so based on the reviews thought this would be perfect for me. Sadly all I smell is the smell like when you walk into a casino 😂 minus the cigarettes. Looks like it is great for a lot of people, just way too strong for me!

This is a fantastic, sophisticated vanilla and amber scent. It's not sugary vanilla at all, just warm and delicious. It smells sexy and expensive (which it is, for a full bottle). This one is going to be a staple for this fall/winter.

I'm not going to comment on the brisk and pleasant opening; the top notes tell you everything you need to know. What I discovered I love about this scent is the vanilla. It sneaks in early, but in a very unobtrusive, gentle way that belies what it will become as the fragrance progresses. At about the one-hour mark, The Architects Club settles into a warm, dry, slightly smoky vanilla that I find intoxicating. This is no buttercream-bakeshop-your-mom's-rice-pudding vanilla; there's no creamy, cloying sweetness. This is an indolent vanilla lingering over a bed of spicy woods. It's hands-down my favorite vanilla and absolutely perfect for fall. Unfortunately, sillage is nonexistent; it settles into a skin scent very quickly, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, because this vanilla invites a lingering hug. Longevity is moderate; if I bury my nose in my wrist, I can still detect a hint of vanilla at 6 hours, but it's very faint. I give it a 4/10 sillage, 5/10 longevity, and 7/10 overall "wow" factor, but I'd go 10/10 if I'm rating it compared to other vanilla scents. Great value with Scentbird, but I wouldn't buy a FB at this price.

A unique fragrance with an unlikely blend of elements, this one is hard to categorize. At first sniff you get an indulgent whiff of vanilla /tobacco sweetness that dodges being cloying due to the tangy lemon and juniper notes subtly underpinning everything. Add in some woody notes for an unexpected contrast and just a hint of spice, and you've got quite the odd concoction. But inexplicably, this fragrance works. The sweet notes stay dominant throughout wear, which I like, again without being dessert - like, and a light spritz goes a long way. This fragrance is a true original you simply need to smell to experience, and you'll probably love it or hate it. Personally, I can't stop smelling my wrists!

I was a little hesitant since some woody scents immediately turn me away, but I loved this scent immediately, fresh, warm, and sexy smelling. Long lasting too.

I am an Amber Freak and Arquista The Architects Club was right on time scent wise, just wish it lasted longer after you put it on. Otherwise it's a star in my books!

With my first whiff of this scent, I have to say I wasn't sure. It is pretty strong (in fact, one of the strongest I've had so far). But after adjusting to how strong it is, I realized that I really love it. It is very woodsy and musky. So if you aren't into that kind of thing, this is not the scent for you. And it also lasts all day! I never have to think about which scent did I put on this morning?

I do really like the smell, just a little too much vanilla scent.

I ADORE this scent. It's soft and beautiful. I always receive compliments when wearing it.

It smells a little like cotton candy. Not my personal favorite.

This perfume smells very expensive with it’s vanilla and warm tones. It smells to me kinda of masculine but would be a good layering perfume.

Not a fan at all. This is the first scent I don't think I can wear. I didn't like the smell just opening the tube, but have had scents change enough with wearing them that I gave it a chance. But it didn't improve on my skin, just extremely strong, headache-inducingly sweet vanilla with a weird rotty-sweetness in the background. I do not get spicy woodsiness, which is what I was expecting from reviews.

This a very warm tabacco-woods fragrance, with a touch of vanilla. Sweet enough for many women to like it, but very oaky and smells kind of macho to me. Nice, but I am just too girly for it. I will see if my husband likes it, though his preferences tend to be more on the fresh side.

My word..my girl reading a mag blurted out what’s that nice scent I like it. I went and bought a 200.00 bottles worth. Five Star!!!

This is a very nice scent. The vanilla is a background scent that dries down to the main scent. It’s not strong at all. I would give it five stars if it lasted more than a few hours

First things first, all i smelled initially is PEPPER! Its loud and its proud, other than that you get hints of vanilla and woodsy which I usually LOVE but with the pepper and tiny hints of fruit it just isn't my favorite.

Very great scent

I like the idea and the notes but this fragrance smells like a cheap sugary early 2000s era men’s cologne. It makes me nauseous.

Sexy and charming yet unoffensive! Excellent combination of woodiness and Vanilla! I like that for me it doesn’t read as a powdery fragrance but a smooth blend...I interpret it as a clean, comforting, and alluring scent! Unoffensively attractive and appealing! Happy with my first choice as a new subscriber to Scentbird!

As soon as I smelled this I was hooked. It is clean, powdery and vanilla. I really love this smell

I really enjoyed this! It smells sexy and cozy. Not necessarily a Spring or Summer scent but that has not stopped me from using it in the evening. I definitely get the vanilla and lemon and juniper. This is a scent that evokes a room full of intellectuals smoking top notch tobacco in pipes. Kind of a gourmand scent but also on the earthy side. I hate that a bottle is $180! I’m going to need to save up to justify buying this but I will own this.

Love this fragrance, favorite.
