Halloween. Jesús del Pozo.


Perfumist: Unknown.


Countains: sweet lime, green banana, calone, pear, cardamom, lilac, freesia, tuberose, jasmine, magnolia, sandalwood, musk.

Oh. I wish I could be enough brave to wear this:
The name of “Halloween” can create confusion in the anglosagonic market. There ain’t gothic, no darkness, no incense, no sticky flowers.
I can’t really think why the designer chosen that name, as specially now, when “Halloween night” has become as traditional as in the USA with that particular reminiscent of dead, scary and dark. The only answer, in my opinion is that, the 1st November is always been popular in Spain, where people visit the cemeteries and the death relatives, wash the graves and cover then with fresh, scented, multicoloured flowers.

This perfume is just a clean, pure, uplifting aura.
Halloween is a superb aquatic marine floral perfume.
The opening is aquatic, citric and slightly flowery: Calone is a well known molecule that represent the fresh seaside brezze with a fantastic aquatic touch. This molecule blends fantastic with the green banana accord, just light and fruity, with a strong sweet lime note. I can start smell too freesia, a unforgettable ethereal scent.
After 30 mt application, the perfume start to get centered in the lilac flower, with brushstrokes of white light flowers as jasmine and tuberosa. The lime still having a nice presence as the firm hint of the calone.
Halloween dries down in soft musky woods.


In the Spanish market, It has been in the top list of sales, and even the formula is quite complex, smell quite minimalistic for me. It’s calone, lilac shurb flower and gorgeous sweet lime.

The long lasting is fantastic, and the projection is just divine.


I admit it: I wore it myself at home, always indoors, sitting reading a book, or enjoying the sun on my terrace, and I always enjoyed this perfume enormously, but I don’t feel enough confident and brave to wear socially. It’s distinctively feminine. Pity, because I really like.
Sometimes I smelled it on the street, and I can’t help to follow the woman who wears it, just for a instance, and keep, for a second, the lovely project of this fragrance.
