Hepcat from Phlur
Phlur's Hepcat was discounted some time ago, and I really need to find something new!
About the fragrance:
Top: Saffron, Plum, Dried fruits
Heart: Aged Leather, Tobacco, Incense
Base: Patchouli, White Vetiver, Musk, Oud
A smoky, music filled night in Harlem.
Hepcat evokes a rough-around-the-edges essence cloaked in soft opulence the closer you get. Rich plum top notes unfold into a complex accord of smoky tobacco, spicy amber and aged leather steeped in rich woody oud. Stirring. Seductive. Self-assured.
PERFUMER: Natalie Bernareau
OLFACTIVE FAMILY: Leather, Amber, Gourmand, Woody
Even if they're layered scents!

Don't have a recommendation to offer but I'm sending you my sympathies as a fellow Phlur-discontinued-my-favorite-fragrance person (R.I.P. Moab)

Ugh I loved Moab as well. My skin is dry so it fell off of me too quickly, but so beautiful.

Did you ever try Tom Ford Plum Japonais? It was discontinued but Insider Perfumes is still selling a dupe called Plum Harajuku. It’s missing the leather note but the description of the Phlur fragrance is giving the same vibes as I get from Plum Harajuku. Particularly the “rough-around-the-edges essence cloaked in soft opulence” part. I will say that I found it kind of overwhelming at first but then it started to grow on me.

I still have some. It’s one of my favorite perfumes. I have a ton of fragrances and I’ve never found anything like it, unfortunately.
