The Blue Rose
Actually sapphires are blue, actually sky blue to black dark blue. But also other colours can occur. If they are indeed red, then they are rubies.
And I think of rubies when I see red or sniff roses. So more or less in the figurative sense.
The rose undoubtedly dominates dark sapphire. But a lot happens around it, if you look at the inflated pyramid. Admittedly, you cannot identify everything, but you have the impression that you get to know a new facet of the "dark sapphire" with almost every breath you take.
Sometimes it seems to be more the raspberries, then more the patchouli, then more the spicy oriental components or more the floral-resinous notes. In the beginning the rose does not know whether it should show itself more from the sweetish or from the dark-tangy side, whereby it has found its rest in the middle and appears really mature and adult.
Around it, the heavy woody notes can be recognized as a framework, along with the classic soft oud as the base on which the rose rests.
It's no coincidence that I'm reminded of "Black Tie" by Washington Tremlett, a dark rose scent for men that once led the perfume top ten here a good 9 years ago. "Black Tie" no longer plays a role in the fragrance segment, but anyone who still knows it knows about its appeal.
Dark Sapphire is not a fragrance twin, but a welcome alternative for all those who are looking for something similar. Hold a noble perfume with rose as the core and dark matter around it, which is also wearable for men.
