From the beautifully presented and informative website to the streamlined ordering process the purchasing experience could not have been better.

My partner adores the perfume.

Since receiving it she has ventured onto the Frater Perfumes website and has told me how proud she is that New Zealand has such talent; saying how much more precious it made the gift to her.

From a woman of particular taste, that is high praise indeed and better than any comment I might make.

Thank you Frater Perfumes.

Rich and unexpectedly pleasing. It's going into my regular rotation

All I can say is Fraterworks is not only a nice web experience, but they carry fragrances of finest quality, and the bases they create are using mostly natural quality components. This feu D Ambre is not my choice of greats, but it is fine quality like most of Frater products. And good quality comes at a price, and I welcome and trust what is offered.

what is special of frater fragrances, is that they keep to nature as much as they can and be affordable. and that they recognize the natural classics. mimosa is lovely as most frater essences. Thanks Jaimey

i'm very picky with perfumery,
95% of what's on the market, also from indie perfumers, i find not interesting or does not work for me. Very seldom its novel.
The samples i chose from Jamie by the discription really were a pleasant surprise.
They all have in common great attention for detail and balancing, they are all very elegant in that way. Powerfull but not loud.
Porthos and Mimosa for me stood out in character. Personally Porthos evoked a longing for timeless knowledge and Mimosa i associated with with sincerity and love.
these perfumes can make you happy

Bedlam, in particular worked for me on first acquaintance. Looking forward to an all day test.

Unique, distinctive, harmonious, elegant, long lasting and most importantly, it's from Arrowtown, New Zealand. Wonderful.

For only $10 and free shipping to boot you too can experience a life of luxe with any of Frater perfumes so why not give them a try? I've tried a few of the Frater range now and the one thing that stands out to me over other brands is the commitment to quality, craftmanship, high standards and perfume excellence. Cherry Pop is the best Cherry perfume that I have ever tried and I've tried a few and none have managed to wow me until now. As someone who has yearned for the days of old of perfumery when it was only fine perfume, I am genuinely impressed by Frater and look forward to my next olfactory experience with their amazing brand!

This fragrance is fantastic, especially for warm/hot weather. The quality of the materials and the perfumer's skill are obvious. The opening citrus splash is extremely refreshing, bright and sunny. I perceive it as a mixed citrus accord with lemon prominent, but it's tart and juicy, and doesn't remind the wearer of lemon cleaning products or candy. The vetiver is immediately apparent--sharp, crunchy, satisfyingly umami, but not muddy, too earthy or overly smoky against the citrus. The scent is perfectly balanced and remains so all day. The delicious citrus element persists to a surprising degree, and the vetiver fades gently along with it, rather than taking over. Today I sprayed lightly as I headed into the office for an early meeting. The citrus is still apparent close to the skin at 5 p.m., and has never been completely overcome by the vetiver.

Just purchased a 2ml tester and it is the best scent I have fallen in love with it and also got plenty of compliments!! Definitely will be purchasing the full size sooner or later. 50ml would be amazing only since the price is so high for the full 100ml but I know its worth it as it is long lasting and I will get my hands on it soon hopefully.

Best perfume!

I must say I wasn't overly impressed when this hit my skin. It gave me "expensive smelling soap"...now I've never purchased expensive soap but I imagine this is what it would smell like. I'm so glad I didn’t write this off because the drydown is a powdery iris with a sophisticated softness. Often people associate "powdery" with grandma vibes (FYI there are many grannies out there who have better fragrance game than us so bring on grandma vibes) but this...this is definitely one for the books.

This warm spicy scent reminds me of what authentic coconut oil (made from scratch in the Pacific Islands) might smell like in perfume form but with abit more of a floral kick. I would love to layer this with coconut oil but on its own its divine with a stunning drydown that's almost a nutty floral.

Its like going to watch a great movie and having your own tray of candy and popcorn to yourself and not having to share a dam thing! Totally indulgent.

I love it. It smells like if you dentist was hot.
