Niche perfumes brands are independent, smaller brands that create quality potent fragrances that are long-lasting and unique. I have been exploring lots of niche fragrances in the last few years, and I am leaning towards these type of perfumes over the regular designer scents. Great perfumes leave a lasting impression, they smell amazing, project really well and stay on for hours.

If you are interested in exploring great niche fragrances, here are my top 5 niche perfume brands to check out –

Parfums De Marly

Parfums De Marly is definitely one of my favourite niche perfume brands. It was launched in 2009 by founder Julien Sprecher. I have tried many of their fragrances and my favourites from the brand are currently Valaya, Delina, Valaya Exclusif, Meliora and Delina Exclusif. This is a niche brand to explore if you are lo0king for quality French fragrances that smell great and last all day. This luxury fragrance brand has a scent for every man or woman.

Xerjoff

This is an italian luxury perfume brand launched in 2003 by Sergio Momo, and their fragrances are so amazing. I am a huge fan of Xerjoff Erba Pura, which is one of the brand’s popular perfumes. Xerjoff perfumes stand out from the rest, they are very distinctive, have great projection and quite long-lasting. If you are into quality strong perfumes that will linger all day, you should explore Xerjoff niche perfumes.

Creed

Creed is an Anglo-French niche fragrance brand, known for luxurious scents. I have tried Creed Aventus and Creed Eladaria and they are so good. There are many more Creed scents I am looking to discover and I can’t wait to sniff them all. When it comes to quality fragrances that  feel and smell luxurious, look no further, Creed is the brand to shop.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian

This luxurious French niche fragrance brand is another favourite of mine. I fell in love with Maison Francis Kurkdjian perfumes some years ago. It is one of those perfume brands you need to explore for yourself. My favourite scent from the brand is currently Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity – Silver. It is one of the few unisex fragances I love. I usually like very feminine scents, but Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity – Silver is such a delicate fragrance.

Escentric Molecules

If you into cleaner scents, Escentric Molecules is the brand to check out. I discovered this amazing brand some years ago and I am so in love. For those who have never heard of this brand, Escentric Molecules was launched in London in 2006 by Geza Schoen, and the brand is famous for the minimalist approach of using just a single aroma molecules or a molecule blended with other notes. These perfumes react uniquely to individual skin chemistry, so it smells differently on everyone, which makes it even more special. Some of my favourites from the brand are Molecules 01 and Escentric 01.

3 Series to Watch on Netflix

January 7, 2026 By in Lifestyle Tags: , , , , , , Leave a comment

The holiday season is still in full swing and I have been very busy watching some exciting series and movies on Netflix. I like having a list of what to watch next as it saves me time scrolling through the many series/movies on Netflix looking for what to watch. I lean more to series these days, as they allow me watch something short and sweet when I have the time. Watching movies for hours in one go is not something I can do regularly, but with series, watching an episode every now and again works great for me.

If you are wondering what to watch next on Netflix, here is a list of what I am currently watching –

3 Series to Watch on Netflix

Series to Watch on Netflix picture

Captivated

I started watching this short British series some days ago and it is quite good. I like the intriguing storyline, it is so interesting and full of twists and turns. The storyline is centered around a single mother working for a wealthy businessman, who has an ulterior motive behind his generosity. I kind of knew where the story was heading from the start, it was a bit predictable but I enjoyed eatching it all unfold. This is definitely worth watching if you are into this sort of storyline. The series has only 4 episodes, so short and sweet.

Stranger Things 5

I bet all Stranger Things fans have already binge watched this new season but for those who have not, Stranger Things Season 5 is currently available on Netflix and it is as good as all previous seasons. I really enjoyed watching this season, and I wonder if there will be another season. It looks like this new season tied up all the loose ends, but you never know. This was a lovely series to watch during the holidays.

To Kill a Monkey

I watched this series a few months ago and I watched it again with the family during the Chistmas holiday. The storyline is all about how a struggling father gets involved in the world of crime, and faces devastating consequence. This Nigerian series kept me at the edge of my seat all through, and I can clearly see myself binge watching To Kill a Monkey for the third time. I am looking forward to a season 2, I have a feeling there will be one soon.
