From whispers to silence
The opening reminds strongly of Pure Poison, but it's just for a minute.
Jaipur Bracelet quickly becomes a skin scent, which is a pity. Today however is not a particularly hot day, on the contrary, so perhaps this is affecting the scent reaction on my skin. I will have to try it again in hotter days.
Back to the notes: at first spritz violets come forward, heralding the uplifting freshness of spring in all its glory. It's a clear and delightful note, not too sweet or heady.
About one hour into wearing it, the scent has gone rather quiet already. I just about can detect a ghostly bitter orange hand in hand with hyacint - by sniffing my wrist from very close.
These two create nonetheless a lovely concoction, well balanced and classy.
I don't find any iris, or carnation, just a tad of petigrain and neroli notes, faintly blending with the others.
Jaipur Bracelet is enchanting in its extraordinary balance speaking of mastery, and I love it, BUT: the weakness of sillage and longevity are a great disappointment.
As things stand, I would have to re-apply every hour or so in order to enjoy this magic spell.
Perhaps it's not by chance that Pure Poison and Jaipur Bracelet have been created by the same nose: they are fantastic frangrances, but both lack sillage and longevity.
A great pity!
UPDATE: After 24 hrs it is gripping on my wrist where I sprayed it about 10 times, but I have to stick my nose to the skin.
