Untamed Rose & Leather
Very fruity, opulent floral gives itself to Almas. Leaves no doubt that rose is a central theme of this fragrance. The fruits of the top note provide a certain "relief" of the deep dark rose in the heart. Open the fragrance slightly in the direction of semi-transparency. Nevertheless, it is and remains a combination that many will certainly think about: Rosen-Oud. Again.
But this BtV here is worth a test and an unbiased view.
The oud used (Cambodian) is smoky and woody and (fortunately) completely free of farm attitudes. Together with the suede, the result is a slightly rough texture that creates a wonderful counterpoint to the red opulence. But also to the well-known chord marriage of rose and eagle wood. The suede textures and comes as the finest, light-coloured leather. Light velour. In any case and at any time unspielt.
I found it very positive that the fruity, floral top note was put into the background after a good 3 hours and gave plenty of room to the calm smokiness of the suede oud. At this point, the fragrance becomes really unisex for me and gets a somewhat harsher facet that allows me to identify with it.
From hour 4+ the softer basic chords come into their own. Although the projection is still almost unadjusted, I now smell sandalwood, vanilla and white musk close to my skin. A preview of the drydown that can't be nicer.
Within the next 4-6 hours Almas continues to feed its wearer. Becomes more cuddly and enables a loving farewell in the afternoon with a broad smile on your face.
I can recommend this fragrance to anyone who would like to test a rose oud with leather twist. I consider myself very ambitious to buy a bottle of it. We would like to point out that at the current temperatures, above 30 degrees Celsius, a high degree of sensitivity in dosage would be advisable. Every degree over wellness temperature (22°C) more lets the scent feel in 10cm steps take the room in the storm. The projection is gigantic. That's what the Oudh does. That somehow belongs in the warmth. :)
