The Barkeeps Luxury Fragrance Discovery Set featuring KILIAN PARIS and Creed brings together five distinctive fragrances spanning fresh cognac, warm gourmand, tobacco, spice, orris, leather and whiskey-inspired woods. The set includes Angels’ Share on the Rocks, Creed Centaurus, Creed Delphinus, Angels’ Share and Old Fashioned.
Each fragrance sample offers a different expression of modern niche perfumery. Compare the icy citrus and cognac character of Angels’ Share on the Rocks with the warm, gourmand depth of Angels’ Share; explore the fiery tobacco and spices of Centaurus beside the powdery orris, incense and leather of Delphinus; then finish with the whiskey-inspired woods and balsamic warmth of Old Fashioned.
This 5-fragrance discovery set is ideal for sampling multiple luxury fragrances before choosing a larger travel size or full bottle. Each fragrance is independently transferred from an authentic original bottle into its own glass sample atomizer by Bluegrass Fragrance Company.

What Do the Fragrances in This Discovery Set Smell Like?
Angels’ Share on the Rocks is the freshest fragrance in the set, pairing sparkling citrus with cognac, cinnamon, tonka bean and oak. It moves from cool and bright toward a warmer gourmand drydown.
Centaurus is warm, spicy and tobacco-forward. Cinnamon, cardamom and pink pepper surround tobacco before sandalwood, tonka bean, balsams and vanilla create a deeper woody amber finish.
Delphinus is softer and more powdery. Incense, almond and pepper transition into orris, heliotrope and orchid, while leather, amberwood, vanilla and tonka bean give the drydown warmth and texture.
Angels’ Share is the richest gourmand expression in the set, combining cognac, cinnamon and oak with tonka bean, sandalwood and the fragrance's sweet praline-and-vanilla character.
Old Fashioned takes a drier, woodier approach to the liquor theme. Wheat and davana lead into concentrated cedarwood before resinous styrax and Tolu balm create the impression of aged whiskey barrels and warm woods.
Angels’ Share vs. Angels’ Share on the Rocks
Angels’ Share is the warmer and more gourmand interpretation, emphasizing cognac, oak, cinnamon, tonka bean and sandalwood with additional praline and vanilla facets.
Angels’ Share on the Rocks reworks that cognac theme with KILIAN PARIS's On the Rocks accord and bitter orange. Grapefruit, lemon and bergamot contribute a noticeably brighter and cooler citrus opening before the composition returns to cognac, cinnamon, tonka bean and oak.
If you prefer richer sweetness and warm woods, start with Angels’ Share. If you want a fresher citrus-driven interpretation of the same cognac concept, try Angels’ Share on the Rocks first.
Centaurus vs. Delphinus
Creed created Centaurus and Delphinus as companion fragrances within The Amber Universe. Both are woody amber Eau de Parfums with warm spices and Bourbon vanilla, but they explore very different textures.
Centaurus is the bolder, spicier composition, built around tobacco, cinnamon, cardamom, sandalwood and tonka bean.
Delphinus is more powdery and softly leathery, combining incense and almond with orris butter, heliotrope, orchid, amberwood and leather.
This discovery set makes it easy to wear both side by side and decide whether you prefer Centaurus's spicy tobacco warmth or Delphinus's smoother orris-and-leather profile.
Performance and Best Occasions
This set leans toward warm, woody, ambery and gourmand fragrance profiles, with Angels’ Share on the Rocks providing the brightest and freshest contrast.
Angels’ Share, Centaurus, Delphinus and Old Fashioned are particularly well suited to evenings, dinners, date nights, special occasions and cooler weather. Angels’ Share on the Rocks can transition especially well into daytime and warmer conditions because of its citrus-driven opening.
Longevity, projection, and sillage can vary depending on skin chemistry, application, climate, and environment.
Why Try This Luxury Fragrance Discovery Set?
This discovery set offers five distinct fragrance experiences without requiring a full-bottle purchase. It is especially useful for comparing different interpretations of amber, vanilla, woods, spice, leather and liquor-inspired accords directly on your own skin.
It also includes two useful side-by-side comparisons: Angels’ Share against its fresher Angels’ Share on the Rocks variation, and Creed Centaurus against Delphinus from The Amber Universe.
The set is a practical choice for fragrance enthusiasts exploring KILIAN PARIS or Creed, shoppers looking for a luxury fragrance gift, or anyone deciding which scent deserves a larger travel-size decant.

Fragrance Care & Warm-Weather Delivery
Fragrance—whether in a decant, travel spray, or full bottle—is best experienced and stored at room temperature.
If your fragrance arrives warm:
- Bring the package inside as soon as possible.
- Allow the fragrance to return to room temperature for several hours, or overnight, before spraying.
- Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Do not refrigerate or freeze it.
A fragrance exposed to warm transit conditions may smell slightly different while it is still warm. Once it has cooled and rested, it should smell and perform as intended. For the vast majority of shipments, temporary warmth during delivery is not a cause for concern.
Every fragrance is carefully inspected and packaged before shipment.
