Kist

I was in the mood for something more seasonal as we entered the cooler months, so I took a chance on a blind buy and would happily do it again. It is a really welcoming autumn scent, opening with a resinous, caramel-like woodiness that is rounded out by soft cashmere and a subtle, constant note of paper reminiscent of books. While it isn’t overpowering, it projects quite well initially—my Uber driver complimented it shortly after I applied it, and I could still subtly smell it in the room when I got back home. It settles nicely on the skin, and the lasting power is solid; I can still catch comforting whiffs of it on my clothes days later. Itching to try the rest of the collection now!

Oh this is nice! I love the smell of sandalwood and to me, Kist absolutely nails the natural, resinous sweetness without being loud about it.
Thank you Robin and Clara, I think I may just have discovered my ‘go to’ fragrance!

I picked up Kist at the Barnes Fragrance Fair and it’s been such a lovely surprise. It’s beautifully balanced, soft and elegant without trying too hard. I love how effortless it feels to wear, whether it’s for work or a day out.

The quality really stands out and it develops so nicely on my skin, leaving a subtle but lasting scent. I’m so glad I stopped to smell it at the fair because it’s become one of those fragrances I keep reaching for. A beautiful scent and a brilliant introduction to Anforh.

Comforting and warming to the senses, like a hug for the soul. Lingers beautifully without being overwhelming, the perfect blend of creamy notes.

KIST truly is a warm, comforting scent. Even without vanilla in the notes, the mix of woods, benzoin, and cashmeran gives it this soft, cozy, vanilla-like sweetness. It lasts, but it’s never loud—just stays close and gives me a gentle hint from under my shirt now and then. It feels steady, warm, and familiar. Big thanks to Robin for bringing this one to us.

This fragrance is an absolute gem that is wonderfully smooth, sweet, and warm on the skin. Its so addictive it makes you want to keep reaching for it over and over again. It truly is a lovely, comforting scent. Thanks Robin.

Lovely scent, that lasts and great to support a small independent brand.

Absolutely love this scent. It’s noticeable without being overpowering, wears really well throughout the day. You can tell a lot of care went into crafting it. Already had few compliments :p

A gorgeous fragrance - warm and comforting. I’ve had so many questions about this since I started wearing it - couldn’t recommend more!

Lovely fragrance that you catch wafts of over time like a gentle, reassuring caress.

I arrived to work rather earlier than my colleagues one day after receiving my shipment of Kist. When one of my co-workers followed in after me, she remarked "Where is that lovely smell coming from?" She looked at me and asked "Is that you?" She described the scent as warm and familiar. I love it when folks around me notice a scent I'm wearing. This one is very special.

Sandalwood done right ! Gorgeous creamy sandalwood. A very casual, introspective professional fragrance for the modern man looking to make a statement to the world.

The first time I smelled Kist out of the discovery set I knew it was one of my new favorite scents that I've smelled, which naturally propelled me to buy a full bottle. My only personal caveat is that I wish it lasted longer in regards overall performance.

Sandalwood is my favourite note and oftentimes I feel it takes a backseat to the other notes in my fragrances. With Kist, it’s right there as it leaves the bottle, and throughout the day in the dry down.

Kist has a subtleness to it, and while I’m enjoying it right now in the winter, I think it would be equally good in the warmer summer months, so I guess we’ll see (if I have any left by then)!

If you’re familiar with SWY Sandalwood or Tom Ford’s Santal Blush, this will be a safe blind buy for you in my opinion. Perhaps a little more “vanillary” on my skin, but certainly a daily rather than a bold big hitter that needs to be tucked away for a special occasion.

I wasn't sure to expect from Kist, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I know there are no vanilla accords in this, but I get a lot of creamy vanilla (probably the sandalwood), especially after it has dried down, which actually reminds me of Tom Ford Vanille Fatale.

The longevity of this is enormous! Two days after wearing it, I could still smell it on my jacket.
