A nice oud with nuances of solvent
Magnificent work of Mr. Kurkdjian, with just three notes he has created a very mysterious and welcoming perfume, with a certain mystical air, that stimulates the senses.
The beginning of this perfume is almost exact to Bois D'encens from the Armani Prive collection, a very resinous, cold and balsamic spicy aroma, exquisite, perfectly emulating the sensation of liturgical incense, but not the smell of when it burns, but the smell of the unburned incense stones, it's like opening a bag full of this incense and breathing inside it, I love it. This start is long-lived, it stays at least half an hour or more, and little by little it becomes woody. A very spicy and warm wood begins to emerge, and together with the previous notes, they create an intense woody aroma, resinous, vibrant and balsamic, ecstatic. In the end, the protagonist is the oud, with a subtle resinous veil of very light vanilla, highlighting the many nuances of these woods. An aroma of marked character and not for everyone. The oud in this perfume is a very tamed oud, it is intense, but it does not have that dirty touch of some oud that I have smelled, here it is tinged with a smell of deep, turbulent, spicy, warm, balsamic and somewhat creamy wood.
As I said before, it is not a perfume for everyone, it is a scent with character and it needs someone who knows how to wear it, I particularly love it, but it is difficult for me to know what kind of occasions to wear it for, anyway, a beautiful perfume for cold or temperate climates and to wear at night, although as I always say, this depends on each one.
The duration has been greater than 9 hours, with a good wake for about 3 hours, then it declines to moderate, but not bad. It is not a perfume that I can openly recommend, but if you like this type of scent, it is a highly recommended perfume.
