Cirrus Parfum
Parakeet
Parakeet
Notes: Fizzy grapefruit soda, freshly picked daisies, tiny forget-me-nots, and the powdery sweet down feathers of a well groomed parakeet
This perfume was inspired by rose-tinted memories of my first pet. Skye was a beautiful and very tame blue and white parakeet. Some of my earliest memories were of sneaking out of bed at sunrise and taking him out of his cage to play when the house and the world were just for the two of us.
It opens with a super carbonated and defined grapefruit soda. As it dries down the flowers and feathers will begin to come out.
This perfume is naturally colored with blue chamomile. Therefore the color of this fragrance may change slightly with age.

The opening is absolutely beautiful, sparkly grapefruit with an effervescent quality. I wish the top notes could last longer, as they are gorgeous. The dry down is not bad at all, but it doesn't sing to me the same way as the opening. It's sweet and a bit powdery (not strongly powdery). Fresh and spring-y.
I love the bright citrus opening to this perfume. The grapefruit is slightly bitter and then as it dries down you start to get the soft floral notes. The down feather add a slightly musky note that grounds the perfume. This is one of my favorites of the line. It’s not overly citrus or floral. It’s just beautiful. It’s definitely a fragrance that I could see myself wearing everyday whether to work or out with friends and family.
Parakeet opens with a bright, carbonated grapefruit punch which quickly gives way to a very true daisy scent. It's a very realistic smell of a verdant summer field dotted with flowers. After some further dry down and wear, the clean feather musk makes for a soft landing; a unique skin scent. To my nose, it reminded me of burying my nose in the fur of a contended cat as they sunned themselves. 🥰
My partner has a fragrance sensitivity to a some component in Parakeet, which is a true shame because I would definitely be wearing this one 🥹🌼
I have never felt moved enough to leave a fragrance review before, but once I smelled this fragrance, I knew it would be something special. This is the first perfume to bring tears to my eyes. In the most beautiful way, this perfume embodies the feeling of waking up on a lazy Sunday morning next to the one you love with the sun shining down on you through an open window. For me, this perfume perfectly describes peace and pure bliss. This is my happy perfume. I was lucky enough to receive this as a free sample with my initial order. Obviously I went ahead and order the full size bottle.
This is popping open a bottle of grapefruit soda, the fizz is super strong, tickling your throat as you chug the refreshing sweet and sour carbonated beverage. This is the most "soda" like fragrance I have ever smelled. The fizz feels so real that you are almost tempted to drink it. One the fizz starts to fade, the fragrance transitions into a softly sweet and almost fluffy floral fragrance that still carries the hints of citrus. The way this fragrance opens is just genius, I immediately went to buy myself a full bottle.
This fragrance starts with a fairly strong scent bubble and transitions into a skin scent. This also lasted about 4 hours on my skin which doesn't bother me because I would love to re-apply this fragrance just to get another hit of that opening.
