Bisch's interpretation of a rose... not everyday
Rose fragrances are not everyone's cup of tea, I would say. In any case, the rose is a symbol of love, especially red roses. And what man gets a bouquet of roses as a present from his sweetheart? Exceptions prove the rule...
But here it's different, probably because I recognize my beloved Quentin Bisch signature in it. Quentin Bisch fragrances à la Ganymede Eau de Parfum, Masa or Bois Impérial, among others, are characterized for me by a mixture of natural fragrance notes paired with a certain pleasing synthetics, which nevertheless appears high-quality and sophisticated and leaves a lasting impression.
This is also the case here: The striking, fruity top notes of sweet lychee and juicy green apple paired with the slightly pungent spiciness of cumin followed by a powerful 'Rosa damascena' dipped in honey on a bed of musk, patchouli and Akigalawood - which form the base notes in both Ganymede and Masa and therefore the intersection - unite opposing accords to create a beguiling and harmonious fragrance experience.
In this respect, the name 'Experimentum Crucis' is also very well chosen.
Some Quentin Bisch fragrances seem to have been created according to this 'knitting pattern', I would argue, and that is why they stand out from the crowd - even within the niche.
Of course, his fragrances also polarize, but that makes them all the more interesting and unique.
While the Ganymede Eau de Parfum, B683 Eau de Parfum or Bois Impérial will appeal more to male buyers, I can see this one appealing more to the female target group. Of course, it remains a unisex fragrance, but the tendency is clearly towards femininity. In any case, I'm torn as to whether I'll stick with the original sample or whether I'll buy a bottle after all.
Definitely fascinating and worth a try. In terms of H/S and P/L, you also get a good deal.
All in all, worthy of note and, in my opinion, undervalued.
