The nose behind this fragrance is Laura Oberwetter. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dust, Black Pepper, Steam Accord; Paper, Immortelle, Tobacco; Vanilla, Sandalwood and Amber.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA fragrance need not be overwhelmingly rich or complicated in order to be a true masterpiece- sometimes, all you need is a combination of uniquely conceived notes so perfectly aligned that a single whiff jolts you from reality into reverie. That's exactly what the brilliantly compelling Warm Bulb has to offer- a scentscape of understated simplicity, yet dramatically evocative power. Clue describes\u003cstrong\u003e Warm Bulb\u003c\/strong\u003e as \"a lamp's light bak[ing] yellowed pages underneath, \" and sure enough, this is the scent of an incandescent lightbulb- the yellow glow of the hot bulb, a layer of dust gently baking on its surface, illuminating the dry, cracked pages of a well-loved paperback book in a suburban rec room where the curtains still carry the faint trace of indoor smoking, while a soft vanilla wafts in from the kitchen. To call Warm Bulb \"cozy\" seems like a dramatic understatement- its sense of time and place is so distinct, the warmth it creates so palpable, that it's easy to lose yourself in its gentle power. Nostalgic, unique, clever, and captivating, Warm Bulb is more than deserving of the accolades coming its way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eREVIEWS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e Such a pleasant and comforting scent, love the slight lactonic quality it gives on my skin.  The steam accord note is sooooo brilliant. You can actually smell and feel the heat as soon as the perfume hits your skin. An instant favorite!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e This is one of the most interesting experiences I've ever had with a fragrance and in the absolute best way possible. I bought the discovery set of Clue's debut fragrances mostly to try this after reading about it and I'm blown away. It's very wearable (for me), warm, a touch sweet, and somehow truly smells like a warm light bulb????? I thought that idea was impossible and didn't even understand how that could be a thing but.... it's a warm light in fragrance form.... will be amazing in the colder months, before bed as a cozy warmth, and just a really uniquely beautiful fragrance. It doesn't smell like a \"perfume\" to me (none of them do) and I really appreciate that it lacks a \"perfumey\" quality. That may mean something different to everyone but it's just wonderful. Immediately bought a full size (plus Morel Map as well).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e It's exact-the smell of gently burning dust on a hot bulb. There's an unlikely sense of transportation when you consider that this scent has existed for as long as the lightbulb has, and reflect on the artists and writers and musicians who smelled this long before you. It's an unusual scent to link you to the older world we associate with lush chypres and fougeres, but nevertheless :)...There's a persistent sweetness I love that reminds me of tinned black olives.... I've only had my sample for a couple of days... It's so addictive. I might love this one, I can't focus on much else when I wear it. I want it because of how precise and masterful it is!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e This is so good I could scream. When I got my nose on this after applying one spritz from the 2ml sample in the discovery set I ordered I was immediately transported to such a warm and kind place that my serotonin boosted faster than any other fragrance has accomplished. I don't know how they did it, but the combination of the dust, steam and paper notes with the warmth of the vanilla and amber has put me under the warmest light in the coziest room...A candle lit tableside by my broken in couch, curled up in my favorite blanket, and reading a book that I've been meaning to start for weeks. A deep exhale, and a sense of immediate relief...Warm bulb is a masterpiece!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e Fuzzy, soft, cozy. curling up underneath a blanket to read a book, an attic where aged and lost memories hide, and boiling water to make tea. the Warmth here is impeccable...it truly smells like warm air similar to the air surrounding an old lit bulb.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm and growing warmer, this is a really special one. Laura Oberwetter is insanely talented. Bottling such a specific experience like this is so far from anything else I've ever smelled. The memories of being in older places it brought back to me; the old paper note, this delicate balance between the dryness and a thin, fizzling stream of steam. Woah. The heat coming off of this, it's not hot. It really is warm. The first blast from the spray had me genuinely awestruck, I couldn't stop pulling my wrist to my nose over and over again. The feeling of homecoming to a place I forgot was home. Dry, buttery sweetness. Almost cloying to me but never getting there, like a warm room I'm somewhat cramped in but I'm comfortable, I'm happy here, in the moment I don't want to be anywhere else. Such an accurate paper note. It's been said but it can't be overstated how accurate this scent is to its vision. Dry, paper, heat, an almost boozy (but not quite) thick vanilla, and warmth. Real warmth. Warmth of a room that you know and that knows you. Lingers on me somewhat softly, but has this gorgeous radiating effect. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e This is so beautiful, it reminds me of reading in an old dusty library beneath a bankers lamp, you get so engrossed in the stories of the dusty book that the heat of the lamp begins to warm the pages. It's a smart and photo realistic portrait in a bottle. I really love it. The tobacco and vanilla are soft and creamy creating this beautiful aura to the already nostalgic and academic nature of this scent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e A magic trick. Vanilla can be cloying, but this one is beyond-cozy and so wearable. If you've ever wished the Hydrating Facial Cleanser from Cera Ve could be a fragrance, this is for you. Doesn't overpower in a workplace setting, but definitely lasts. Steam accord and dust notes are reminiscent of pulling a vintage heating pad out of a closet filled with acrylic blankets. The comfort and potential danger of a heat source. Specifically one my parents had from the 70s covered in ditsy florals with a yellowing cord. It might set the house on fire, but it's also the best part of my day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e This fragrance is the olfactory embodiment of a cozy night in. Think: An old book cracked open, the buzz of an old lamp, and a vintage wool sweater. Warm Bulb dries down to a satisfying, warm, sweetness that lingers on for hours.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrantica -\u003c\/strong\u003e Mesmerized by how they captured so well the concept of an actual warm bulb. This places me into a scenario where I walk up to an old, forgotten dusty attic, pulling on the ceiling light string that immediately chars the cobwebs that have been building up around it for many years. The light brightens the dark and musty space filled with old books and family photo albums. You settle in and get lost through the pages.\u003cbr\u003eSo beautiful! I feel like the tobacco mutes the vanilla and tones it down a bit which is greatly appreciated for the vibe of the perfume as a whole, making it less gourmand and more papery. A very strange scent on my skin, can't help but bring my nose to my wrist every 5 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clue","offers":[{"title":"1\/2 ML - 1\/2 Filled Sample Vial","offer_id":44767584714913,"sku":"ClueBulb-1\/2","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 ML - Glass Vial","offer_id":45306758365345,"sku":"ClueBulb-1","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 ML - Glass Spray in a 2 ML Atomizer","offer_id":46428117958817,"sku":"ClueBulb-1S","price":14.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":44767584747681,"sku":"ClueBulb-2","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":44767584649377,"sku":"ClueBulb-3","price":41.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":44767584780449,"sku":"ClueBulb-5S","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML - Glass Roll On","offer_id":44767584682145,"sku":"ClueBulb-5R","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1993\/6689\/files\/ClueBulb.jpg?v=1737149612","url":"https:\/\/theperfumedcourt.com\/products\/cluebulb","provider":"The Perfumed Court","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
