A bianchiesque Dior Homme perfume?
In anticipation of vigorous rebuttal, I create this provocative thesis.
When I sprayed on the fragrance yesterday and today, I felt reminded of the good old Dior Homme DNA. For niche fans probably "the deep fall" of an artist, for me: a beautiful moment.
We all know her iris butter from her fragrances, which now evokes associations with Dior Homme perfume in my nose and on my skin at the top note for the first 1-2 hours. A sweet powdery iris note emerges. Amber, benzoin and woods complement the warmth. Nevertheless, arises in conjunction with castoreum also (for me only in the background) a slight animalism from, which we know from some other of their fragrances much more present.
Exactly this (for many known) interaction will perhaps disappoint the niche head.
"She sees herself as an artist, after all. Why such a known DNA?" But wasn't this DNA when it was launched also art? Why not play with a known DNA and give it a personal touch? (because this is still undoubtedly recognizable).
In my opinion, however, it reflects the interplay between Orient and Occident - or as she describes it "East meets West" - in an appropriate way.
In the progression to the base, the players recurring in her fragrances are recognizable, so that the longer the fragrance is worn, it is also more and more recognizable that this fragrance is also a bianchi fragrance.
Since other of their fragrances often oscillate between demanding and difficult, I think that this fragrance is suitable if you want to sniff into this niche brand for the first time. He does not overwhelm the nose in the prelude, but makes in its course some what you can also experience with their other fragrances.
For me, this fragrance is the ideal "beginner bianchi". For fans of their more strenuous works probably a work that chums up to the uniformed mainstream.
