 20 Hidden Gems in the APO Collection that I tell my friends about

# APO Code Inspired by Gender Why it's a Hidden Gem
1 4004 Song of Oud™ (Deluxe) Unisex A beautifully unusual composition from Ajmal that gets far less attention than it deserves; distinctive, polished and memorable.
2 20030 Bois du Portugal™ Men An elegant old-school Creed that lives in the shadow of Aventus, despite being one of the house’s most refined woody fragrances.
3 120005 Patchouli Ink Men Dark, inky and sophisticated; a surprisingly niche-feeling Montblanc that most customers would never think to search for.
4 121003 Bois Imperial Unisex A striking modern woody scent from a less obvious house, with the kind of quality and character usually associated with much pricier niche brands.
5 52048 Lavender Extreme™ Unisex A bold, exaggerated take on lavender that feels completely different from the better-known Tom Ford favourites.
6 42029 Safanad™ (Deluxe) Women A beautiful feminine Parfums de Marly that is continually overshadowed by Delina and deserves much more attention.
7 5032 Indigo Tanzanite™ Unisex Warm, smoky and resinous; one of the more under-the-radar Armani Privé fragrances and a great discovery for lovers of deeper scents.
8 27010 Gaïac Mystic™ Unisex Sophisticated, woody and refined, yet rarely talked about compared with Givenchy's better-known releases.
9 27021 Foudroyant™ Unisex Rich and dramatic, with a luxurious niche feel; one of those Givenchy fragrances that almost nobody stumbles across by accident.
10 54001 Orchidée Vanille™ Women A soft, elegant vanilla that feels creamy and refined rather than sugary, and is often overlooked beside today's louder vanilla blockbusters.
11 25008 Gold Immortals™ Unisex Smooth, polished and luxurious, but overshadowed by Ex Nihilo's more famous names such as Blue Talisman and Fleur Narcotique.
12 32007 Pearl Oud™ Unisex An opulent oud from Kilian that is much less obvious than the house's bestsellers and feels like a true discovery piece.
13 46017 Ahlam™ Women A genuinely obscure Roja choice; even fragrance enthusiasts may not know it, which makes it ideal Hidden Gems territory.
14 30007 Ambre Narguilé™ (Deluxe) Unisex A gorgeous spiced amber-gourmand that helped define this style long before modern gourmand fragrances became fashionable.
15 31030 Midnight Musk & Amber Unisex Warm, sensual and much deeper than the Jo Malone scents most customers know, making it a lovely surprise from the house.
16 38020 Wild Pears™ Unisex Juicy, bright and playful; an overlooked Montale that proves the house can do far more than heavy oud and rose fragrances.
17 40010 Sadonaso™ (Deluxe) Unisex Strange, provocative and unforgettable — exactly the sort of scent that makes a Hidden Gems collection exciting.
18 43004 Paithani™ (Deluxe) Women A rich and unusual Penhaligon's that gets buried beneath Halfeti and the Portraits collection, despite having plenty of character of its own.
19 47001 Ambre Sultan™ Unisex A superb classic amber with depth and character that newer perfume buyers may simply never have discovered.
20 52015 Sole di Positano™ Unisex A sunny, elegant citrus-floral Tom Ford that is completely overshadowed by the darker, louder Private Blend favourites.
