Interesting nosejob
This scent contains three notes I am not so familiar with: galagal, tobacco flower and vodka. I suppose that is why I find this scent very interesting. I have had it on my shelf for many years. Usually I wear a lot of other scents but sometimes I use this for a whole week. As soon as I spray it, my nose starts to work and I find myself sniffing my wrist several times every hour.
It starts out fruity but with a really intriguing note blended in. This opening lasts for half an hour, and then slowly the flowers declare their entrance. Lovely Iris in a really alluring mix with the acacia and vodka - so strange and exotic. I bet it is the Tobacco flower that leaves this really sweet impression. Finally I land in a base of ginger, a huge favourite of mine. With the amber and chocolate it becomes even more vivid than in a lot of other fragrances. The longevity is really something. Many hours’ journey with this interesting companion.
Sadly, this is discontinued. I can heartily recommend everyone to seek this out and buy it whenever possible. This is not necessarily your next favourite fragrance, but it is a different fragrance compared to a lot of the block busters.

Sui Generis Aromatic Oriental Fougère
Unusual, odd, strange, unique, bizarre, yes, it's true what the other reviewers have said: Bvlgari BLV NOTTE is all of the above--and more! This composition really is one of a kind, yes, in the way that SJP COVET is. BLV NOTTE, too, defies categorization and combines chocolate with an unexpected array of aromatic notes. If I were forced to select a category, I'd have to call this an aromatic oriental fougère, but even that would be misleading. BLV NOTTE is downright eccentric.

Do I like it? Well, yes, I guess I do. I find it not exactly beautiful but totally fascinating. BLV NOTTE is both masculine and feminine without being either. It combines aromatic, gourmand and oriental components with green and floral notes. There is so much sheer complexity here that I find myself studying this composition as I wear it, trying to wrap my nose around it, but never quite catching up, as the individual notes come and go and wax and wane in utterly unpredictable ways.

Near the end, a strong KENZO-oid baby powder/clean diaper base emerges, but it is much more appealing here, thanks to the admixture of incense. I wonder whether Morillas got in trouble for using a FLOWER building block for a Bvlgari commission... seems a bit like submitting a big chunk of text in term papers for two different classes. (-: Or maybe that's a bad analogy here, since the note in question is basically a Demeter-like facsimile of clean diapers, and diapers long pre-dated Morillas' involvement in perfumery.

Anyway, I bought this blind, and I have no idea why, but I am glad that I did because this composition is totally unique. I cannot truly say that I love BLV NOTTE, but I respect its deviant nature and will continue to explore its undulating twists and turns.
