Creating a vivid image through scent
I have just received a decant of this and I must say majestic is a befitting title.
As I first sprayed it I knew I would like it. A very thick and and rich opening; fruity, woody, resinous and leathery, all of it well-blended, setting a scene for a hypnotizing scent.
I would say leather as a note can be a hit or miss for me, but this is truly so addictive. As the fragrance evolved over the course of two hours I only glanced at the notes on several sites, I didn't even need much explanation as it was painting a picture for me. I could see myself, dead of winter, sitting on a new soft suede armchair, savoring a thick and fruity rose jam, a small fire in my back with Incense burning atop the fireplace.
I could see how this scent can be heavy for some people, but I believe this is a leather fragrance that can easily be enjoyed (especially if the likes of azaran has made you feel sick) for its sweetness and smoothness. It's not very animalic, more so woody, smoky and soft. The vanilla is not as loud as other vanilla based scents and adds to the smoothness.
Overall, a must try!
