The nasal core
The pomegranate is split to the core - dry, almost astringent. The taste and effect of the bite on that core is thus transferred directly from the mouth to the nose in a subtle way - an unusually exciting opening.
The splitting of the pomegranate is celebrated extensively on the eaglewood - the combination of this fruit with really high-quality oud is new to me, and also innovative. Hence the name of the perfume "Vermilion Wood" (Red & Forest):

smouldering and crackling (but not smoky)
bulky and attractive at the same time
warm and dry (but not dusty)

Later comes the green-black plum, slightly sweetish, even a touch creamy, but never sticky or sugary.

A red in wood, vehement (not radical), the vermilion tone splashing in all directions! High quality and natural, for me also a very intimate fragrance. Haute couture in ingredients from Mona di Orio - a performance for its own independent stage.

The ticket for this stage is unfortunately painful (however, the price will change downwards after the relaunch of the label, as a lacquered wooden box, which was apparently very costly to produce, will probably be dispensed with in future --- hopefully!)

PS: next to "Mellifera" and "Four Thieves" the most beautiful of the Alinea series.

Bitter wood warmed by plum floating on dark geranium.
Becomes smoky dry with time.
Very nice but too intense for me.
