Artemus Sky Perfume Reviews

Sky is a strange name for a fragrance built almost entirely around fruit and sugar, with barely a hint of anything airy or blue about it. Pear nectar, white peach and a fruity accord open things with a juicy sweetness that has more in common with a dessert cart than open air, and a gourmand accord, jasmine and wild raspberries only double down on that sweetness through the heart. Moss is the surprise in the base, an earthy counterweight to dry amber and candy sugar that keeps the whole thing from tipping into pure candy. Fruity gourmand is the fitting label, playful and youthful rather than airy or ethereal. Artemus Sky Perfume suits casual daytime wear and early evening plans equally well, especially for anyone who leans toward sweeter fragrances over classic florals. Spring and summer bring out its fruitiness most clearly, though the amber and moss base gives it just enough weight to work into early fall too. What saves this from reading as one-note sweet is that mossy undertone, a small addition that keeps the composition grounded rather than letting the sugar run unchecked. The name oversells what's actually here, but taken on its own terms, Artemus built a fruity gourmand that doesn't overstay its welcome.
