Fragrances I think Catwoman would wear…

Dark Is Night by Henry Rose

My first pick for our leather clad femme fatale is this two note fragrance by the brand Henry Rose. It is deep, it is woody and it is sexy. It’s also very simple with its only notes being vanilla bean and patchouli. This brand is a clean brand, meaning that it is safe for the environment and safe for the wearer, there are absolutely no harsh chemicals used in any of their products as their philosophy is to be transparent, safe and efficient with the products they offer. They are EWG (Environmental working group) verified. I definitely recommend getting the samples before considering a full bottle, as this brand is expensive. Fun fact, this is Michelle Pfeiffer’s perfume brand. I didn’t choose this just because this is a request for Michelle Pfeiffer’s 1992 rendition of catwoman, but because the name of this fragrance is very fitting for Gotham. All the scents are no fuss and simple and great for layering. Their simplicity is why I also chose this for catwoman. If you’re an anti-hero on the prowl in the dead of night doing illegal things, you don’t want to be caught now do you? This perfume sits close to the skin and is intimate but smells intoxicating enough that you’re sure to make a lasting impression on whoever gets close enough to you to catch a whiff. I’d categorise this as a fall or winter scent, as it has an element of warmth and mystery but it’s not so overpowering where you can’t get away with it year round. It’s projection isn’t insane at all, it is very subtle but lasts a good while on the skin. So it has lasting power but the sillage isn’t insane. It’s perfect for a night out committing crimes and won’t leave a scent trail so that you aren’t caught. It’s stealthy and perfect for catwoman. This is her “mission” or “action mode” perfume. When she’s out on a heist or committing some other scandalous crime, or beating the shit out of people, she doesn’t want something so strong it’s distracting, y’know? She wants something that is almost undetectable to where she can’t be chased. But a girl’s still gotta smell sexy and this perfume is just that. The patchouli note gives it a spicy and woody air of mystique and the vanilla note in there is alluring and warm. It’s simple, it’s gorgeous, it’s effective and efficient, and efficient is what you gotta be if you’re always on the move. A 10/10 for Miss Kyle.

Roja Dove “H” The Exclusive by Roja Parfums

There were so many for the second choice that I was debating between, but I finally settled for this one. This is a unique choice, and is a harrod’s exclusive, though I am sad to report that this fragrance is in fact discontinued; however I will mention an exact affordable dupe of this later on. I just went with the more expensive choice because Catwoman has expensive taste. The reason why this perfume is a strange choice for her is because it does lean quite masculine, but as i always say, perfume is very personal and at the end of the day the gender a fragrance is targeted at doesn’t matter as long as you enjoy it. It is credited as unisex but leans very masculine. The reason I decided to go for this though is because of that valerian note in it. Valerian is a plant that mimics the effects of catnip on some cats. There aren’t any perfumes with cat-nip as a note, but valerian is basically an alternative to it. It offers a calming and sedating effect to cats. Valerian root contains actinidine, a compound that acts as a stimulant for some cats. WITH THAT SAID, don’t go around spraying perfumes or essential oils or anything like that around your cats, please be wary of their health. A lot of cats are sensitive to scents and it may cause harm to them so please don’t read this post and then experiment on your cats. Just putting that out there as a disclaimer. Anyway, I feel Selina would adore this fragrance as one that provides her a sense of calm. I don’t think she would wear this in public, she would just wear it at home. Treats it as her relaxation or self care fragrance. Maybe she’ll apply it when she takes a shower or when she’s just lounging around her apartment. We all have a perfume like this, that we just wear in the comfort of our own homes. A lounge perfume. This is her lounge perfume, her lazy day perfume that still manages to make her feel luxurious. It makes her cats calm too, though she's cautious not to spray too much in the atmosphere. She just sort of dabs it gently on her pulse points. This fragrance is very green. Very natural and balmy. So the top notes are cypriol and gurjan balsam, they are very warm notes then that bergamot and valerian give it this calming quality, in the middle, we have notes consisting of rose, oregano, nutmeg, jasmine and geranium they make it soft and aromatic then the base has a bunch of woods, greens and resins that give it depth. The vetiver and patchouli notes in this especially give it this smokey warm pleasant feel. Everything about this perfume is very soothing and gives the impression of being inside of an apothecary. If you’re into meditation this is a good choice to dab on your wrists. I feel this is her go to scent for reducing stress. This is discontinued as i have mentioned before, but the dupe of this is Alpha Aoud by the Dua brand, which is the cheaper version of this exact scent, it also contains valerian in the ingredients and the bottle of the dupe has a big wild cat on it, which is fitting for catwoman as is the name “alpha” but I went with the expensive perfume because she is a lady with expensive taste, I however don’t doubt that Selina wouldn’t reach for the dupe either.

Lune Féline by Atlier Des Ors

Moving on to our third choice for Miss Selina Kyle, we have Lune Feline. All her perfume choices seem to carry a theme of sexy, smokey, woody and balmy. This one is no exception. It is a gourmand, but it’s a very elegant and grown up gourmand with woody elements. This fragrance is warmth and luxury in a bottle, it’s hyped in the fragrance community for a reason. The bottle is simple and sleek in design, kind of like her leather suit or even just a cat they are effortlessly sleek. The juice has gold flecks floating in it, which reflect beautifully in the sunlight or moonlight. It is described on the website as “Radiating seduction and temptation” and i mean, isn’t that so catwoman? It is inspired by the moon, hence the word “Lune” in the name. As with my first choice perfume “Dark is Night” i felt it’s only fair to keep consistent with this night theme and what better choice than Lune Feline, it gives very “Gotham.” I feel Selina would wear this to a formal event, a gala or ball, somewhere fancy where everyone is dressed formally and all the socialites and high society people in power would show up. She’d pair this seductive fragrance with a sleek black silk dress and an expensive diamond necklace. This perfume is straight up luxury and seduction. It’s sweet, it’s leathery, it’s woody, it’s warm. It entices. She would definitely wear this to stand out and be memorable for that special evening. Anyone who caught wind of her would definitely remember her or be mesmerised. This is 100% a winter or autumn perfume but it is not overwhelming in it’s sweetness. Like i said, she would wear this to a formal event that took place in the colder months i feel like? A winter ball or charity gala where all the wealthy people gather up. The top notes greet you with a spicy cardamon and cinnamon ( I adore these notes) and pink pepper. So we're starting off rather spiced and then we move to the middle notes where this fragrance gets that green woody soothing tone, many woody and green notes are accompanied by waxy ambergris and the basenotes have that sweet vanilla, gentle musk, and that peru balsam which really warms it up. It is sensual. Perfect for Selina.

The Bewitching Yasmine by Penhaligon’s

Lastly I saved the best for last, I’ve decided to go with this one. This is a wonderful oriental feminine perfume. It is ABSOLUTELY stunning! Another night time perfume. I am staying true to the dark and gritty gotham theme here, don’t you worry. This fragrance is sweet and smokey. It is another seductive and delicious scent and for sure the most mysterious scent on this list. The bottle too is absolutely exquisite and on brand for catwoman as the cap is the head of a panther. If like me, you adore a smokey element to your fragrance, this one delivers. The top notes are spicy cardamom and deep rich coffee, so already we mean business with that introduction. The middle notes are warm jasmine and fir, and the basenotes are rich tahitian vanilla, laotian oud and incense. The oud and incense at the base make this a smoke lover’s dream and the vanilla really gives it a sweetness, there is a rich boozy element in this too so if you love perfumes with boozy qualities this might be right up your alley. This is definitely what i would categorise as a perfume for a femme fatale, and Selina Kyle is just that. Meow! I think on this list at least this one is my favourite for sure, i think it is catwoman from the juice to the bottle design. As for when she’d wear this? Whenever she wants to feel in control. It is luxurious and the bottle is just so badass.

Here’s how I want robin in the next battinson movie:

The very first scene is Bruce and tiny Dick Grayson sitting across from each other at the dining table, staring each other down in silence, both clearly grumpy about it. Alfred is in the background watching them with concern. The silence lasts about 20 seconds before Dick speaks.

“Let me fight crime.” (said with all the petulance of a pouty 10 year old)

Bruce replies immediately. “No.” (this is clearly an ongoing argument)

Immediately cut to the next scene where Dick, wearing the iconic Robin suit, is having the time of his life swinging across the city while Bruce frantically tries to keep up with him while yelling at him to be careful like an anxious mother
