The way is the goal!
What a wonderful fragrance Didier Gaglewski, the independent and extremely sympathetic perfumer from the perfume capital of Grasse, has created here! He takes us with him en chemin, on the way. Quite obviously on one that leads through the south of France, albeit to more remote areas. I remember, from the Cote d`Azur to the Grasser Basin stretches a strip of surprisingly dense settlement about 20 kilometres wide. Gaglewski must have left that behind and roamed through the barren, northerly mountainous countryside, where the density of settlement drops abruptly and the bustling Cote d`Azur seems worlds away.
Early in the morning he sets out, the eucalyptus still smells fresh, dark spicy herbs and woods under the morning dew give an intense nose feast. But quickly the sun rises higher, the dark warm smell of the slightly dusty macchia asserts itself. Soft, earthy, spicy aromas linger in the air and make his nostrils flare. At midday, the earthy scents recede in favour of gourmand spices, among which clove pleasantly stands out. In the afternoon, light smoky notes join in. In the magical evening light, which spreads over the nearby Mediterranean Sea, he starts the way home to immediately pour this day in fragrance!
He succeeds extraordinarily beautifully. "En Chemin" is an absolutely solitary fragrance, which I can compare with no other (which is now rare enough), the best Gaglewski so far (as far as I know his portfolio) - and extremely masculine staged! The durability is enough for an extensive day hike of at least 8 hours, the sillage is really good for an hour and a half, then becomes a bit skin tight, but remains evenly present for the wearer until the drydown. After a long time once again a fragrance for my wish list - and not only because Didier is sooo likeable, but because he has really created quite great and very wearable fragrance cinema!
