Happy People Use Perfume

The Domestic Goblin only discovered the house of Teo Cabanel in February 2023 via perfume loving members of the YouTube community.

In March 2023, DG decided to purchase and test out the Discovery Set and her thoughts are below...


~ Je Ne Sais Quoi
Smells more like steamed rice than the scent of toasted rice/savoury popcorn most commonly associated with gemaicha. 

~ Tres French
Generic green perfume scent.

~ Encore
All carrot and soy milk. No cake.

~ Et Voila
Musky soap.

~ Oh La La
DG appears to be anosmic to the notes.

~ Cafe Cabanel
Linear coconut latte.

~ Ca Boum
Salty and sweet.

~ Oha
Leather and oakmoss that lingers.

~ Rendezvous
Polite blossoms.

~ Alahine
Pink musk.

~ Kasar
Clove and patchouli domination.

~ Barkhane
Cumin and oud and nothing else.



Overall thoughts: Contrary to the YouTube reviews, the DG found the majority of their fragrances does not live up to the 'beast mode' claims. In reality, the projection and sillage is gentle and disappointingly, the scent itself disappears after a couple of hours. 

Alas! Due to longevity issues and lack of the joy factor, the DG won't be purchasing full sized bottles of any of these scents.

This such a shame because the customer service team at Teo Cabanel are quick to respond and helpful!
