At the beginning 90s style, then lush resinous-birchy-woodsy patchoulians
Bogner's earlier works. I thought of that when I first got a taste of "Luce". Somehow also "Background" by Jil Sander, whereby this is especially true for the prelude.
In an oddly anachronistic way, the Fusciuni's design initially reminds us of earlier 1990s fragrances as mentioned above. Is it perhaps due to the opulently used benzoin, which was an ideal standard at the time?
"Luce" is one of those fragrances that can be used sparingly - as the course of events shows. Birch, patchouli and tobacco quickly become quite appealing and the reference in the statement below to the herb forest and old rites cannot be dismissed. Then comes the turning point, away from the rather open-minded 90s scents towards a much more gripping, interwoven style and texture.
Above all patchouli and birch and later a mineral-balsamic amber provide a somewhat resinous, slightly petroleum-like, woody, autumnally woody conglomeration of impressions that alternate somewhere between "still wearable" and "concept/art scent".
To me - to be honest - something too lush in the middle part, for patchoulifans but surely an enrichment.
