My Sweetest Holiday Weakness

Serge Gainsbourg – I Want To Feel Crazy

Occupation of my heart and my mind in three shots...

Shot no. 1
Ambre Russe was ready to accompany me on the cold foggy streets of Zagreb, and to finally leave the perfume shop. But the perfume Gods changed the plan. I met 1270 for the first time. Love at first sniff... under the spell. The smell of an old town apartment. Winter, cognac, armchair, housecoat. Russian amber just had to wait.

Shot no. 2
Cold, sunny December day. No wind. Standing in black coat with black sunglasses, drinking coffee and watching the sea that moved like liquid gold. Similar to Tarkovsky's Solyaris. 1270 mixed with the smell of coffee. I could sense the illusion of time flow. Like an atmosphere of Dubrovnik-born Vojnovi?'s drama "Dusk". The moment of introspection. Quartz purity of the mind.

Shot no. 3
Christmas party with my friends in a bar. Happiness is everywhere. 1270 is perfectly melted with alcohol fumes of my glass. Life is good and nose is saturated.

1270, a perfect companion.

Rating: 10/10

Overpriced boozy-gourmand
A mixture of a decent male woody-boozy cologne with some fruity gourmand, rather "orange" overtones. Not bad, but somehow 1270 doesn't meet my expectations. The drydown is synthetic and far too sweet for me. I personally wouldn't want to wear it - and I wouldn't like to smell it on a man either, there are so many better fragrances around, especially when you are ready to cash out a lot of money. A disappointment.

Savoir vivre
So, a fragrance from my beloved house of cognac, Frapin! I received this sample as a gift and immediately had to sniff it, and the day after I had an important meeting and I chose this one to wear. It made me feel confident, somehow as the guy who knows there are moments for cognac to be drunk and other moments for cognac to be in your wrists and neck and be felt by the people around you...
Lightly spicy, lightly sweet. Different, no doubt! Exquisite, as a cognac should be. And I enjoyed the coffee note. But not too long lasting...It reminded me definitely of french country in september and the french touch of life and "savoir vivre"!

Butterscotch...
One of only a couple gourmands that I can honestly say I like. To me, the scent has a butterscotch note that hangs around throughout. I really like that note and recommend the scent to others that do as well. That said, I find it hard to visualize a wide range of situations where this scent could be used... Nice scent, just limited wearability. Longevity is very good on 1270. 3 to 3.5 stars out of 5.

Pineapple cognac
I love it but it breaks my heart. Such a rich, smooth scent, but it's just weak on me. While it lasts it's superb: Pineapple steeped in fine cognac with raisins, orange and vanilla. Incredibly delicious and mature, even unisex. Never cloying or artificial. I want to purchase a full bottle and spray with abandon like there's no tomorrow...

1270 is a sweet blend of dried fruits, cocoa, honey and light boozy touch on a woody-vanilla base. Cozy gourmand that fades quickly.

Sweet hazelnut in a fruity nougat. A chocolate bar on a table partially melted by the sun, with slight boozy undertones and a woody base.

Cognac, dried fruits, spices, woods, pineapple....this is a mature scent. It gives a winter night time vibe. Sexy. Warm. Gorgeous blend!

Bitter elements are not nearly strong enough to balance the sweetness. Booze is a bit nauseating

Raisins, prunes and spices floating in honey. Sweet, fruity and cozy but performance is suspect.

Fruity, sweet and warm. Lovely!

Dried fruits, spices and woods evoke notions of an amber-coloured Cognac fragrance.
