Rose-Oud-Musc trio,but better on the garments?
Rose-Oud with a animalic and cacao twist.On garment it smells quite like those natural rose-oud-musc trio (reminds me of eo3 and malik al taif), but on skin it has some sharp noises which for me means synthetic animal and too much geraniums (maybe synthetic as well)
But to be honest the rose and fermented agarwood here smells pretty OK if you like those vibes…
Well,test it on skin first before you buy.(not sure if those sharp noises would just appear on my skin)

One for the oud lovers
A deceptively simple fragrance of only 3 main notes. However, the ingredients are of incredible quality, one being a big 30% shot of fermented Indian oud. That’s a massive amount, if you didn’t already know.

The oud starts off with petrol fumes that hit straight to the back of the throat. A bit cheesy and medicinal. After about an hour the petrol vibe fades and the big hit of oud mellows out nicely.

The cocoa mixes well with the oud almost like it’s an extension of it. Very well blended as if the oud was distilled along with the cocoa powder. I wouldn’t be surprised . An interesting choice though to pair that with rose as I wouldn’t think cocoa and rose would be a great combination, and indeed it’s not my favorite but damn it works somehow and sets it apart from a standard oud rose.

The rose is of the red variety, luscious, wet, and glistening. It wafts up to your nose and makes you feel like you just stepped through a dewy rose garden after a morning rain. Lovely.

Tonight, I’m wearing it for the second time this week and sampling it next to two other legendary oud roses: Ottoman Empire IV (my favorite to appreciate at home) and FM’s The Night (my favorite to wear out). And these other two I do admit I like better, they are masterpieces, but B&tB is also incredible in its own right while being much simpler and straightforward. Still a contender and well worth the price. And I’d be very comfortable wearing it out on the town after the initial dry down when the petrol fades rather than just appreciating it home. A big winner for me!

The bottle is also beautiful and the sprayer best in class.

Thank you, Russian Adam, for your passion and love you pour into your perfumes! Eagerly awaiting what comes next!

Not the common oud and rose
Immediately flushed with medicinal oud, but after a short while a wonderful, thick, rich and super-real cocoa comes out.
That's not the end, the oud resurfaces but this time more cheesy.
Rose? Yes, in the background, sweet.
Very strong fragrance, which many may not like.
Personally, I like it, but I prefer Ambre de coco.

A very sour, citrusy rose collides with barnyard Hindi oud, trailed by bitter cocoa. Intense and divisive, undeniably more beast than beauty

BIG shot of fermented Indian oud—cheesy, fuel-like—with a luscious, wet, red rose and hint of cocoa. A collector’s fragrance.

It doesn't fully fall into my favourites, but it remains a delicate beast. Sensation on the way to Neriko
