Katy Perry's Indi

This is an easy everyday, chic, simple, sheer berry musk with a warm amber twinkling underneath. Feminine, soft, and an unexpected love given the brand.

This needed a little bit of maturation. To summarize: molecular, very intimate white tea and musk. I smell no other notes. The top notes listed are mostly non-existant. As said below: nice when you want to wear perfume, but not smell of perfume - have a mysterious clean smell.

Very inoffensive musky scent. Kind of like a kitten musk - the kind of fluffy, baby-skin-like, slightly woody musk. Not at all exciting to me, but good on those days you want perfume without smelling of perfume. I have JHAG Sunny Side Up and this is nothing like it to me. They're both "barely there", non-sweet perfumes, but aside from that, I don't really see similarities here.

I bought this because it was recommended as something similar to B. By Balenciaga and it's not at all what I was expecting. It smells more like a stinky version of You by Glossier. I looked at the notes which seemed up my alley, so I was surprised to smell nutmeg or cardamom or some kind of sweet spice that I absolutely detest in fragrances.

I literally cannot smell this, like any part of it! I am completely nose-blind to this. I was about to give up and basically give it away but then experimented with an almost invisible peach perfume from Oakcha. Magic! Witchcraft! Wow! This behaves almost exactly like ISO E Super to diffuse, elevate, reinforce and lock in volatile fruit notes, delicate sweetness, barely-there scents and synthetic vanilla! This musk bomb gives the weakest of weaksauce scents a beautiful boost and hours of longevity. ❗Experiment before committing to the next layer. Does not play well with synthetic sugary chemicals, aquatic or marine notes, other musk-heavy perfumes. My chemistry thrives on formulas like this, yours may not. 1/10 I couldn't see its potential until I learned... 9/10 It's not a perfume, it's a tool.

This is absolutely a hidden gem. I love sunny side up, and have almost used up my travel size. This is its replacement. Longevity is okay, silliage is moderate at best. This is a woody skin scent, and that’s exactly how it performs. The bottle is nice. I like the clean white matte packaging. You really can’t beat the price. Say whatever you want about Katy Perry, but this is a great fragrance.

This fragrance varies in what it reminds me of, whenever I get a random 'whiff' of myself when wearing. Initially it is not dissimilar to Paper by Commodity, or Santal 33 by Le Labo, which is as I expected based on other reviews. This week however I got several whiffs of myself where it smelt like a softer version of More Sex by Charlotte Tilbury. It is a great every day scent for the price point, and something a little different to the usual fruity or floral celebrity perfume, I only wished it lasted longer, as by mid afternoon I can no longer smell it on myself, and faintly on my clothes.

It smells like faint cologne. Like someone was smoking cigarettes all night. I can sense the spices giving it peppery quality. I can only describe it as something smelly. Not for me.

Katy Perry is not my favourite astronaut not gonna lie, but this perfume smells simply amazing! Soft, creamy, heavenly! It smells similar to those high end sandalwood/fig/coconut perfumes, but i like this one the most. However, I see what people mean when they say it smells like cum, but no actual cum would smell this good (or any good lol?) Also my therapist liked it so much she asked me to write down the name of it :,D I feel like this is one of those perfumes that seem very weak at first but it's actually quite long lasting and other people can smell it on you for a long time

This is absolutely gorgeous. I have been searching everywhere for an affordable fragrance that gave me the same vibes as Commodity Paper + which is up there in my top five all time fav fragrances. And this has finally scratched that itch. It’s got the incense, it’s got the dry vetiver, it’s got the woodiness. Admittedly it starts to lean slightly towards a Versace Crystal Noir vibe in the late dry down, but honestly, for the vanishingly low price, I can handle that. I suspect that if I layer with some ISO E Super I’ll get an even closer dupe of Paper + This is not a Santal 33 dupe. It’s Commodity Paper +’s cheap little sister.

This smells of straight up, knock you over the head, bitter sandlewood. Which is fine for incense but I wouldn't wear this as a parfum. I don't smell anything else and it's not even called out as a note. I bought it because I love musk but whatever the formulation it just comes off as incense regardless of what I spray it on. It's now in my meditation room serving as a room spray.

Indi is such a well blended fragrance. For the price, it's a steal. It's a creamy skin scent. It makes me think of the line 'your skin, only better'. Lactonic...but not sweet. My nose is a bit anosmic to Indi because it meshes so well with my skin chemistry. I douse my clothes in it so that I can have the aura around me. The cedar note translates more to a creamy sandalwood for me. The coconut is not sweet...it adds to the milky tone of Indi. I love this scent. Comforting, cozy and lovely.

I bought this because it is reported to smell similar to my most beloved discontinued Balenciaga B. After reading the notes I was worried it would be awful after seeing all those musks listed. Surprisingly it’s not too bad. I do see the reference to Balenciaga B but it’s not as… well blended? I’m getting powdery woods, starts a tad sharp but then turns to more creamy woods. Best thing I can think of to compare it to is incense mixed with baby powder - but not in a bad way. I compare Santal 33 & Glossier You to Balenciaga B, so it falls in line than those fragrances could also be compared to this one in some ways. If you don’t generally like those kinds of scents, you probably won’t like this. Many people who don’t like those types of scents report them as smelling like pickles to them, so I wouldn’t be surprised if some think this is pickle-y as well. I don’t smell the pickle thing lol. I sprayed a good amount and it’s not terribly strong, even with all that musk.

A couple of reviews before - Coty Exclamation! It's very similar. I love the muskiness. I wish it was stronger. I can tell it won't last long and will use it for layering. For the price you can definitely over spray. I won't repurchase.

This is a unique and a bit weird fragrance. To me the note combo smells like plastic, like old time plastic that was soft and easy to scratch. But it does not smell bad just I expected to feel the listed notes, at least the musk but all I get is plastic, strange.

I don't know if this is bottle bias but it feels like Coty Exclamation without the peachy Elnette hairspray vibe. Very very light, smells like almost nothing on me.

This is such an affordable gem if you like a musky fragrance. It’s soft and light on my skin yet it is distinctly there. It’s a great fragrance for fall and winter. It’s cozy and perfect for a night in or a bedtime scent. It doesn’t have as much projection as I prefer and is a bit powdery for my liking but the way it’s blended make it very pleasant to me. It’s not that similar to Santal 33. It doesn’t have that relaxing spa like vibe though. Perfect for wearing to the office or as a daytime scent!

I bought a one ounce bottle from ebay because of the comparisons to Sunny Side Up, and while SSU is one of my favorite fragrances, l don't think it smells super similar to Indi. This is a beautiful musk and light woods, the pencil shavings that everyone always talks about lol. This wears and smells more like Another 13 than Santal 33. It's musk with light sandalwood. Absolutely beautiful and addictive, l just purchased 4 100ml bottles because l never want to be without this.

Comforting cozy sweet scent. Can't easily describe it maybe from the musks. Performs best on fabric. I find myself respraying throughout the day because I'm kind of addicted to it. Soft and close to the skin type fragrance. I would definitely buy another bottle if I ran out.

This is Sarah Jessica Parker’s little sister to Stash OG. Lasts about 2 hours, but price will afford lots of touch ups. No incense listed but definitely getting that vibe…like a baby bohemian. A very strong “like” for me…but SJPs Stash is what I’ll pair this with to get more longevity.

very creamy, comforting musk. i do get a touch of that coconut others are mentioning, but in a coconut scented lotion kind of way. i just love the white cedar and tonka here. very surprised by how much i like this. poor longevity, but cheap enough to touch up. as inoffensive as a perfume could get. just makes you smell like you naturally smell good.

This is very soft, creamy, musky and powdery scent, with a hint of quiet sweetness. It is a great summer skin scent that is not overpowering in the heat, but rather cozy and intimate.

The perfect bedtime or "stay at home" scent for someone who enjoys coconut scents but doesn't want to be banged over the head with one. It's soft, warm, musky with a bit of powder. It's fluffy and light, and the person sleeping next to you won't be offended. It's intimate and graceful. Comforting. It leaves a whisper of a scent on your skin. I don't get any soapiness, just soft fluffy coconut musk.

To my nose it's a soft, clean and intimate musky fragrance with subtle fruity-floral undertones. If I have to describe it in one sentence I'll say: it's Your Skin But Better. It's an intimate and personal fragrance for close encounters but it does project softly. It has a subtle sweetness and somehow gives a coconutty vibe. It has a airy, slightly powdery and clean laundry type aura. If you dislike musk then this isn't for you. But if you love clean, soft, intimate skin scents with depth and elegance it's worth exploring. The blending of the notes makes Indi an incredibly versatile fragrance. It's suitable for: - Daytime wear for office, daily errands and casual outings - Suitable for year round use as the musk/amber gives warmth in cooler months and the tea, plum, flowers feel fresh in warmer months. - Perfect for situations where a strong scent is inappropriate like hospitals or around babies. - Those who are seeking a comfortable close-to-skin signature scent. - Those who want a scent which It avoids being overly powdery, overly sweet or overly floral. - Those who want an effortlessly wearable scent for daily life. It is often compared with Elizabeth Arden White Tea for its airy tea-and-musk freshness, Versace Crystal Noir for its coconut sandalwood dry-down, Bath & Body Work Fresh Coconut & Cotton for it's clean laundry vibe with hints of coconut. Some people even consider it as a budget-friendly alternative to high-end musk fragrances. Longevity is around 4 hours usually with soft moderate projection. But you have to spray heavily to get a better performance. Overall, it's a safe budget friendly option for musky fragrance lovers. If you want to feel cozy and comfortable then you can try this fragrance. I have to mention that I love this minimalistic but elegant bottle!

This smells similar to Amber Vanilla by The 7 Virtues, I’m surprised there haven’t been other comparisons. I’d say the vanilla is a bit more pronounced in the drydown of Amber Vanilla, while Indi is all about the musk. Something about it evokes 1970s interior design, the wood paneling, amber glass, swag lamps and leather furniture. I do get a faint dank, wet-cardboard note, but it isn’t very strong or off-putting. There’s also a slight nuttiness that reminds me of marzipan, along with an earthy quality, like stepping outside after the rain. It has a metaphysical shop quality as well, like the lingering scent of palo santo smoke. I don't wear it often as it gives me a bit of a headache and makes me sneeze. If you're picky about musk this is about as musty and animalic as a musk can get so you may want to pass if that's not your thing but I'm guessing the notes alone are enough to put you off if that's the case.

I had this and ultimately decided to give it away, as it really didn't have much of a scent to it. I am all for skin scents, but unfortuantely Indi faded very quickly. Even upon spraying it, the scent was very faint. It's a shame, because there is something beautiful in there, but the scent is too toned down.

I get major nostalgia for caravan holidays from this. Idk if there was a soap or something that smelled like this in the UK in the 90s/00s. It's a beautiful clean soapy musc with some tropical coconut implied, but when it dries down there is something a bit plasticky about it which puts me off it a bit. My pal wears santal 33 and I like indi better. 33 has more of a tangerine masculine woody smell to me whereas indi feels softer and creamier. I think it's a really solid celeb fragrance. I think I figured out that my lovely friend, who used to come on caravan holidays with us when we were smol, had a bottle of Versace woman! They don't smell the same at all but it was enough to trigger the caravan memory! I like the Versace better btw.

I find it very similar to Elizabeth Arden's White Tea perfume (the one with the golden lid). I love that one, and performs way better than this one. White Tea lasts all day on me while Indi is barely noticeable after half an hour. Available to me at a similar price point, so White Tea hands down takes the victory. The dry down of Indi reminds me vaguely of sweet wintergreen mints pastilles, which I don't mind.

The best scent from katy perry, cozy skinlike bed perfume, works in cold months also bc of the warmth and coziness. Wish it lasted longer! It's lovely 😍
