Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume Superdose
Cetalox at 20%, clean and intense
Not a Perfume Superdose is the intense take on the house's one-ingredient idea. The material is still cetalox, listed by the brand at the top, in the heart and at the base, but here at a 20% concentration that the brand compares to the power of an essence. The clean woody, musky, ambery profile stays, with more volume. Eau de Parfum, 100 ml.

In the same spirit
Similar in character
On the skin
How it unfolds
-
More of the same, on purpose
The pyramid has not changed: cetalox at every level, nothing else named. What changes is the dose. The brand raises the concentration to 20% and speaks of the power of an essence, so the same single line is simply louder and denser from the first spray.
-
Volume, still clean
The brand's words for the result are clean, pure and intense. The volume is high, which is the main difference from the original, but the profile stays woody, musky and ambery, free of added sweetness or flowers because no other notes are named.
-
Close and persistent
A higher dose means the scent is built to stay on the skin and to be noticed sooner. It remains a one-ingredient perfume: it leaves no sweet or floral afterthought, only the same material from the first spray to the last.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
Start with one spray and add a second only if you want more presence. At this concentration a little goes far. It works best in cooler air and in the evening, though its clean profile keeps it usable by day if you stay light-handed.
Who it is for
People who already like the idea of a one-ingredient perfume but want more presence from it. It suits wearers who prefer clean woody and musky scents to sweet ones, and occasions where an understated scent should still be noticed: evenings, colder months, close company.
Why choose Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume Superdose
It is the brand's own answer to the question of what the original would be at full strength. The concept is unchanged, so there is no new pyramid to learn: cetalox, at 20%. The creator's text on the Superdose page calls the original the house's best seller, and this is its intense version.

Questions
Frequently asked

Same single ingredient, higher dose. The brand gives the Superdose a 20% concentration and a higher volume, while the clean woody-musky-ambery profile stays the same.
What does 20% say about the strength?
The brand compares it to the power of an essence and still labels it Eau de Parfum. One or two sprays already give a clear impression.
What size is it?
The 100 ml bottle is the full size of this Eau de Parfum, which the brand labels that way despite its 20% concentration.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
