Designer perfume recs with good projection, for a niche perfume lover

Hi I'm looking for any designer recs with good projection. I find I gravitate towards designer/niche fragrances that unfortunately have low sillage/projection, and what to see what else is out there.

I've tried these and dislike them:

  • Chloe Nomade
  • YSL Libre
  • Guerlain Mon Guerlain

These are my current perfumes (I tend to like tea and fig, with some faint florals, nothing tooo sweet but fruity is fine)

  • Andrea Maack - Soft Tension
  • Le Labo - The Matcha 26
  • To Summer - Triple Tea
  • To Summer - Void 
  • BDK - Gris Charnel EDP (not Extrait)
  • Tsu Lange Yor - Sage’s Rose 
  • YSL - Muse
  • Sorce - Match Made in Heaven

Thank you!

Spent the last two months decluttering my collection, and finally got it down to under 10 bottles, plus a handful of travel sizes :)

I clearly have a running theme of fig, tea and woods 😅 but they’re all very different to me!

Pictured:

  1. To Summer - Triple Tea (blind buy, but fantastic blend of citrus and green tea for summer)
  2. Andrea Maack - Soft Tension (most recent addition, finally found the identical scent to this Bali body mist that ran out years ago)
  3. Kyse - Fichi e Panna (I could declutter this but I love it too much)
  4. Le Labo - The Matcha 26 (second bottle, I like this in spring, and layers well with my other perfumes)
  5. To Summer - Void (Perfect oolong tea and jasmine scent, great longevity too, layers really well with the Le Labo)
  6. Tsu Lange Yor - Sage’s Rose (Fancy night perfume)
  7. Sorce - Match Made in Heaven (winter cosy perfume)
  8. BDK - Gris Charnel (daily driver in colder weather, considering getting the extra it when this runs out)

Travels

  • Dries - Santal Greenery (I would buy a full bottle if they did 30mls)
  • Molecule 01 Ginger (this is my go to for REALLY hot weather, it practically leaps off the skin)
  • Jo Malone - Pomegranate Noir (am thinking of adding Wood Sage & Sea Salt back into my collection now…)
  • Loewe 01 Man EDP (powdery wood, I think I like the EDT more though)

Not pictured 9. L’Occitane - Neroli et Orchidée, which I wore a lot in my late teens and early 20s, and mostly keep for the memories.

Let me know what you think! And while I don’t plan to buy anymore for now, would welcome any new recommendations, especially stronger perfumes as mine all lean intimate :)
