Pure temptation, indeed. Trying to describe this fragrance gave me a lot of trouble, because so complex in its perfection is a difficult challenge.
One word that comes to mind after opening the packaging is luxury, the greatest of all. The packaging imitates a precious magic bottle locked in an oriental crypt, hidden far from the reach of human hands. Whoever came up with the idea of depicting the series of this perfume (Art Nouveau Collection) in such a specific way was truly a genius, deserving of an ovation. However, if you want to discover beauty in its purest form, you just have to open the cap....
Simply wow
The quality of the fragrance sniffed is extraordinary, definite top-shelf ingredients were used. Despite a small number of simple notes, the fragrance remains complex and engaging. At the beginning, a perfectly creamy and nutty layer opens the head notes, in a very delicate way, making it definitely one of the best if not the best creamy fragrance on the market. The hazelnuts fit beautifully into such a delicate yet intense fragrance, making it a beautiful, more feminine composition.
It is definitely sweet, but this sweetness is not overpowering or tiring. It beautifully envelops us in a warm coating of luxury that everyone dreams of during cold days. Under the care of this sweetness comes a delicious date, further stirring up the sense of desire.
When the fragrance spreads a little, hibiscus and orris root become noticeable. These two binders brilliantly give the fragrance charisma and a well-deserved position among its peers in this collection. They add a floral whiff of freshness and certainly put us at ease.
At the end of our experience, tonka bean rum and saffron rule our senses. They thoroughly fuse everything together and make us want to sink into a bathtub filled with this fragrance. They don't impose themselves, creating a delicately alcoholic-spice base that we want to sniff endlessly.
What can I say, this is an extraordinary fragrance, which it would be absolutely impossible to clone. The price is high, but you can expect nothing less from such a luxurious fragrance. I would just like to congratulate the creator of such an extraordinary work of art. It really is something remarkable and I have nothing more to add.
