An evening around the campfire in Dubai
So now I dare to write my first detailed review of a fragrance. I hope this little anecdote will give you an understanding of this fragrance.
As the saying goes: you always associate a fragrance with an experience or a place. At least that's always the case for me. I assume many fragrance junkies here on Parfumo do the same.
The memory was 2023 in October in Dubai with this fragrance. The second day of my trip to Dubai began with a safari tour. We went out into the desert in the morning and it was already an experience for me on the way in the heat. After the extensive tour, the evening ended with traditional food and a show on stage in a "village", which was set up for the tourists and for many tour operators is the last stop for the groups. This smell reminds me exactly of this oriental evening in the village. The combination of different foods, sweets, drinks, the bonfire and the traditional stalls with souvenirs, exactly reflected the fragrance ingredients of this scent. The food stalls were very strongly flavored and smelled fabulous as can be seen in the top note of this fragrance with coriander, pepper, cinnamon and bergamot. The desserts and the whole decoration with different flowers and fruits after the meal reflected for me the heart note, which is filled with vanilla and ylang-ylang. Different scents came from all sides of the "Village". I wondered where this beautifully fragrant, smoky smell was coming from and after a short while discovered that almost every souvenir stall had a bakhoor burner set up. (For those who don't know: A bakhoor burner is an incense burner or censer). This discovery made it the memory for this fragrance which reflected the base notes of incense, patchouli, amber, sandalwood, labdanum and oud.
In winter when it is cold, I like to wear this fragrance and after the first sniff, I am in the "Village" in Dubai for a short time.
Thank you in advance for reading. I hope I was able to introduce you to this wonderful fragrance and give you a little insight into my fragrance journey.
