The Terminator

When I think of Tom Ford's "Ombre Leather", I have images of the interior of a noble coupe in full leather equipment before my eyes. If I smell the "Ombre Nomade", images of Arnold Schwarznegger's in "Terminator 2" shoot directly into my head including "I want your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle!", which then disappears with sunglasses and cool face on the motorcycle on the highway towards the desert of the sinking sun. Of course with squealing smoking tires! It is a fragrance that polarizes. I suspect either with admiration or rejection.

The opening was 0 to 100 and pure scheduling. There was no time to prepare. First the very strong smoky component in combination with the leather. This is probably created by the benzoin. Benzoin can in pure form alone sometimes a little smell like burnt tires or even chemical (what "lucky" in his statement probably also meant with new air mattress). But this settles quickly.

After about 1 hour, he became a little tamer. The raspberry was the next thing opened up to me including delicious woody undertone. This remains then also very long so.

The incense I personally do not smell out. However, I can say this: have different incense here and the varieties are different as day and night. Some varieties are very tart, another neutral and again another very citrus (Olibanum Aden for example).

Definitely a very interesting fragrance, of which I myself still do not quite know what to think of it. But one thing is certain: I just can not stop to smell it!
