The smell of a Siberian tannery
For me it's the reference Russian Leather with emphasis on birch tar. Extremely smoky and realistic, it almost hurts your eyes to smell it. You feel just like near to some birch tar pit near to a tannery in a remote Siberian village over winter. Almost unwearable on its own in the same way City on Fire/T-rex can be a bit too much but not funky unlike these two - just really austere. But it layers beautifully with brighter, citric fragrances. I tried one spray of it with two sprays of Eau Sauvage Parfum 2017 on top of it and the result is gorgeous. It adds a lot of depth to it.

Fumoir!
Fumoir ,
Je n'attendais, absolument, rien de ce "fumoir" !
Il est lumineux, ambré, cuiré, fumé, voir cendré et assez "dark" sur la fin!

Et, pourtant, il a fonctionné comme un philtre d'attraction avec élégance et puissance !
C'est une invitation galante que j'ai reçu, une entrée avec un bon whisky malté, comme un Glenmorangie (je déteste le whisky !) et pourtant ! Celui-ci, est de ceux que l'on déguste, une fois dans sa vie.

Un whisky aux notes épicées de cumin poudré par la note de poivre mate.
Les notes boisées apparaissent assez rapidement (le flip pour moi, presque en hyperventilation). Mais, non ! C'est bon!

Des notes boisées matures, de bois de bouleau, vieux et sec, écoulant le reste de sa vie dans une résine proche de la myrrhe (celle qui sent bon la résine de commiphora myrrha !). Certains y sentiront une note de vinyle, j'y sens la myrrhe ! Un cuir épais mais souple.

Des notes boisées foulées par les bottes en cuir faites sur mesure, pour un jeune écuyer anglais, élégant, séduisant, séducteur timoré . Un très beau cuir de cellier.
L'attraction fonctionne !
Je ne décèle pas la note de rose ! Mais, ce cavalier doit la porter très près de son cœur. J'y accéderai ! C'est certain !
Il dégage une telle sensualité, sombre, ténébreuse ! C'est doux et légèrement suave comme le tabac à pipe mélangé à des cristaux d'ambre !
Il ne dégage rien d'animal (dans le sens bestial !). Ceci dit, si je rencontre à nouveau ce cavalier, cela pourrait être très torride !
Et finir, sur un lit de copeaux de bois brûlé aux essences de charbon tièdes.
Ici, resteront nos nuits, nos étreintes de braises, refroidies. Et, finir cette union dans une volute de cendres.
C'est un parfum clivant, on aime ou pas.
Difficile à porter au quotidien. Et, je n'y verrai pas l'intérêt ! Quoique…
IL est majestueux. Puissant. Il offre une belle évolution qui prend son temps.
Séduisant solennel. Plutôt le soir, pour une rencontre, une nuit, pour soi...pourquoi pas!
Il est tellement loin de mon univers olfactif et, si agréablement proche de ce que, je souhaitais qu'il possède et m'offre.
C'est une splendeur!
Une oeuvre d'art? Un tableau de Pierre Soulage sauvé du feu...

Arte Profumi / Fumoir
After the wonderful Eclesiae, it is time for another wonderful perfume of the Italian niche brand Arte Profumi, made probably for the Vikings and barbarian invaders themselves.
The smell of thick skins, smoke of burnt birch, birch tar, tobacco with the opening of Scotch whiskey ... with a handful of this and that, and certainly pepper.
After a strong start, where I can smell the fiery smell of burnt birch wood and Scotch whiskey, the notes of blackened, birch tar covered leather and tobacco soon appear. For me, this perfume resounds with just such leather, birch tar, tobacco, and it constantly smokes. These notes interpenetrate each other during a long projection. I highly recommend the fragrance. It will definitely be a treat for fans of such fragrances as: fume, a city on fire, bois d'ascese, black tourmaline, la haine, hyde, bois sikar, tonnerre, fumidus, athunis.
Projection and durability are great, like most Arte Profumi perfumes.
Huh ... For the glory of the Einherjer and for Valhalla ... Heill og sæll

Charred Sausage with Way Too Much Mustard
I usually only write a comment when a fragrance has surprised me very positively. It creates a kind of need to share. In the spirit of: "Look what interesting thing I fished out of the ocean of scents!" As a tip or hint, so to speak. Theoretically, this should also apply in the opposite direction. However, I have not left any negative comments so far. This is not only because I do not want to invest more time in something whose consumption I do not intend to pursue further. No, I am also often unsure whether I have even understood the fragrance or can understand it. So if the fragrance does not work for me and/or does not fall into my "areas of expertise," I do not want to presume to describe it. Especially when there are presumably more competent and established opinions on the matter. This behavior is certainly not entirely correct when it comes to a representative evaluation concerning all Parfumo members or even larger groups. The phenomenon I explained above, which I practice myself (mea culpa), tends to lead to overly high ratings for fragrances in my eyes.

In the case of the comments (and ratings) for "Fumoir," I see the phenomenon I described above completely reversed. Fumoir = smoke salon with pepper, birch, tobacco, Russian leather, cigar, rose, amber. The only thing one could credit it with is the rose, which plays a very, very minor role. So what one is faced with is clear and unambiguous. And "Fumoir" truly takes no prisoners. Why would I get a fragrance that does not fit my taste profile at all? And why should I rate it when it only reached me by chance as a sample, but does not suit me at all? And with "Fumoir," I feel that some of these "mismatches" have occurred. Neither does the key fit the lock nor the lid fit the pot. Searched and not found. And yet, the misunderstanding must be verbalized and the delinquent declassified.

Please do not misunderstand me. There can, must, and should be neither censorship nor rigging. And of course, there are no prerequisites or qualifications to comment on a fragrance. However, if I were to reach for all the sweet, floral, very feminine fragrances, I would only produce devastating critiques with the undifferentiated statement: "This sickly sweet floral stuff smells like the air freshener in my uncle's Kadett." How substantial! What a decision-making aid for potential interested parties! Therefore, my ratings always take the group to which the fragrance belongs as a benchmark and reference point. If others are interested in this group of fragrances, they have a guideline as to whether the fragrance performs below or above average within its group and what it has in common with others or what distinguishes it from them.

The three preceding paragraphs relate to my subjective observation regarding the evaluation of a single fragrance. I do not want this to be understood as a blanket criticism of the rating system or the raters/commentators. It is probably more of a coincidence and an exception that this particular fragrance, although it does not fall short of its direct competitors (rather the opposite is true), has performed so poorly (so far?).

"Fumoir" is exactly my style. Those who want to know what "my style" is can read my related disposition in my comment on "A City on Fire" (https://www.parfumo.de/Parfums/Imaginary_Authors/A_City_On_Fire). Now, Imaginary Authors is widely known and well-distributed here. But one is unlikely to stumble upon a fragrance from Arte Profumi by chance. This is certainly also due to the unfortunate combination of a relatively high price per ml coupled with the fact that there are only 100 ml bottles available. Especially with "Fumoir," this is quite incomprehensible given its longevity. So to spend 250 euros for 100 ml, one must be very convinced, as the financial risk in resale is not very low.

"Fumoir" is, and all commentators are right, regardless of their rating, an incredibly strong smoke fragrance. One should not harbor any illusions about this, and it is hardly describable in any other way. But smoke is not just smoke, as I have also explained in my comment on "A City on Fire." Among those who do not love smoke, the discrediting terms "ham," "ashtray," and "cigarette smoke" are thrown around, as has been the case with "Fumoir." However, this does not do justice to the fragrance, as "Fumoir" is a wood smoke scent with hints of smoke saturation (charcoal/wood). What makes it truly interesting within its species is the apparently herb-fresh finish generated by birch and rose, which becomes more pronounced over time and gives the fragrance a very mature and noble character. The tug-of-war between these two forces for dominance is why "Fumoir" outshines the competition. They are only fractions, but still.

Many thanks to Aquamonza for (once again) a bullseye sample. Because based solely on the ratings left here, I would never have approached it.

PS: The mustard from the headline, some will hopefully have noticed, does not refer to the fragrance. ;-)

A Special Kind of Rehearsal
Attention please, we want to begin!
The bearded gentleman in the back row, please put out that smoking cigarillo, and the gentleman up front, kindly set aside the ham sandwich!
And where is the lady with the rose perfume today? I can't smell her at all...
Please gather around the campfire and I apologize, Egon has stacked green wood.

Well then, everyone hum along to warm up a la Conny Froboess "Pack die Badehose ein" and let's go:

*Raises baton*

"Heitz' das Lagerfeuer ein,
kokelts grüne Hölzelein
und schon räuchern wir hier alle...*

Fumoir smells to me like a campfire, the wood (could very well be birch) still a bit damp, so it smokes and crackles endlessly. With a lot of imagination, I might also detect a hint of tobacco - but rose, leather, or amber get lost in the smoke.
And just like a smoky campfire, Fumoir lasts forever and is exceptionally "fragrance" intensive... The right scent for firefighters, firebugs, and other pyromaniacs :-D

In the smoke salon, things are exaggerated; no one notices amidst the tar that one or two have already left this world in the haze.

Wood, coal, graphite, mineral, almost salty, a drop of sweat, dark tobacco, hinted leather. Successful. But to wear it? Probably rarely.

Birch, cigar, and leather.
Smells like it sounds. Dark, smoky, leathery, and woody-spicy.
Tough guy - he doesn't want to cuddle. Great.

Sweet Lord JC - now that's something, ehh tobacco! For me, it's the best smoky scent so far. A powerful start with whiskey, smoke, wood, and leather..

Maximum scent of smoked ham and that since 2013. Allegations of plagiarism fall flat, but this animalistic smoky orgy annoys me.

I expected a smoky bomb, but I got a wonderful smoky, slightly sweet-leathery scent that is beautifully wearable.*

The name says it all. It smolders nicely, but in an elegant way. Behind the smoke, leather and even a floral hint come through.

Many can smell like smoke. Here, a hint of balsamic spice perfectly balances, allowing character and wearability to shine together.

Smoldering wood, chimney soot, cigar ash - that's all it is, just smoke and haze.
