Dark Matter
Roses can have sooo many colors. From the most transparent "apricot" to "vivid yellow",
from slightly greenish to velvet red.
But this rose here is dark purple, almost shimmering blue. Only "brightened" by a splash of saffron and a pinch of incense.
The majority of this fragrance is not characterized by the scent of oud, but by the wonderfully bitter sandalwood.
This gives the overall scent the impression that dark, fine sand flows through it.
And the roses "seem" to be seen through blue-black cellophane.
Like "dark matter" in space, which science still cannot explain precisely today.
Here, the scent seems to be "heavier" than it actually is.
The "sweetness" is not it, "Saffron Rose" has hardly any.
"It can't be the oud either, as it comes across as rather "light"
Only the composition of the fragrance notes and their ratio to each other could explain this.
But I'm not an "astronomer" for perfumes, I just observe.
And what I observe when sniffing pleases me.
That's the main thing....right?

Bite-sized dullness
Found in the Duty Free area of Punta Cana Airport (Dominican Republic), otherwise not easily available, this Perry Ellis fragrance delivers exactly what its name promises. Normally, I would start with an introductory paragraph, then move on to the perfume itself, followed by the three performance categories, and finally the conclusion. Here, one can almost completely skip the lengthy chatter and all that.

Oud - saffron - rose. Red - brown - black. Delicious - evening - mysterious. Always beautiful, voluminous, Arabic, sexy, perfect for a candlelight dinner - and yet here it is so damn boring, unnecessary & simply feels like it's 15 years, 15 thousand perfumes too late. I can't rate it poorly, but the world really doesn't need it anymore. There are more expensive ones, cheaper ones, finer ones, worse ones, harder ones, softer ones. And so on, and so forth. Offering something new, Perry Ellis was as far away from that as RTL is from not messing with the contestants in "Schwiegertochter gesucht." It seems they only did this for the Arab sheikhs, who apparently buy everything that has rose & oud on it.

Bottle: sturdy, large & trying to look niche
Sillage: for a chic dinner for both genders
Longevity: 5 hours is meager for a saffron-rose combo

Conclusion: a thousand times touched, a thousand times something happened, a thousand and one nights, then it went snore!

Very sweet, rounded, nicely crafted rose-saffron-oud scent, almost gourmand, with sandalwood being nutty like almond pastries.

Subtle fine scent of slightly sweet roses & saffron on barely noticeable oud! Carefree, transparent, elegant, and always suitable :-)
