Good but done before

This opens with a very prominent bergamot and warm spices. To me it smells like if you put slices of bergamot on a grill lol. It’s warm and bright but with the juxtaposition of dark, spiced resins. The heart of this has a lot of that frankincense, an unsweetened and aromatic black tea, and lots of warmth. The citrus here is a tad bit sharp but softens as you get to the dry down and the woods take center stage. I will say the dry down was a bit less exciting, it’s really just dry woods and hints of musky resins but not much else. I feel like this scent profile has been done a ton and I do like the uniqueness of the opening and heart but the dry down was just alright to me.

Spicy, woody, resinous blend - nicely done!

Sampling Day Three Fragrances Silent Rescue, a spicy, woody, resinous, and semi-fresh blend that combines actual spices of pink pepper and nutmeg with fresher ingredients of bergamot and juniper, drying down to sandalwood, cedar, guaiac, and frankincense. Fittingly, it’s a bit sharper in the opening, smoother in the dry down, with the spices being a bit hotter in the opening, cooler in the dry down but on the whole a pretty good balanced feeling between cool and hot spices (said to be the concept of Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb, not that this smells like that).

It’s provocative without being too sharply spicy and restrained in that it almost smells a little sweet, but is mostly a sensible spicy, woody blend that works for three seasons, perhaps just not the heat of a summer day, at least for me. It has the quality of a stereotypically masculine-leaning cool-weather scent, but I think its sheer quality and ease of wearing makes it pretty versatile. Overall, it’s crafted well and adds further diversity to the line, with fittingly very good performance for a fragrance that I would personally wear in the cooler weather, mostly.

Silent Rescue is extrait concentration and is priced similarly to the rest of the line, at $235/135/35 for 100/50/10ml through the house website.
