The Meat Lemon

Dear Yatagan, I simply cannot get your image of the meaty lemon from your statement about Le Galion's "Essence Noble" out of my head. Every time I wear or smell Eau Noble, I picture a half-sliced, intensely yellow lemon filled with ground meat.
Somehow creepy and fascinating at the same time.

Yet this fragrance does not deserve my associations.

In the style of the greatest scents like New-York or Chanel's Pour Monsieur, this one stands on equal footing.

From the start, this clear, refreshing lemon presents itself underpinned with plenty of powder and a pinch of green galbanum. Comparable to the lemon from Pour Monsieur; just not quite as authentic.

From the middle to the end, it develops more and more into New-York by Parfums de Nicolaï. Lavender, sage, and rose. All captured directly by the oakmoss and still powdery. Finely balanced and harmoniously intertwined. Truly worth recommending.

The only downside for me is the average longevity and sillage.

A modern fragrance in a classic presentation. For all lovers of the above scents.

Best regards

Your Profumorist

The mention of New York encouraged me to make a blind buy (which usually never happens). What can I say: Bullseye & thanks! ;-)

A sausage candy would go well with that. :)))
