In vino veritas!
First to say: I threw an eye on this fragrances for quite some time now. Bought it blind, because it was hard to find in a scent store anywhere around!
From previews and statements I could not draw a clear image of the composition and its performance…
Today I got the package with its beautiful presentation in the handmade leather box surrounding the flacon.
I was greedy to finally get some sprays on my skin!
After the first FW I am trying to describe my impressions in the follwoing words:
Fermented fruits/wine grapes meet wet woods and sweaty leather.
The story behind the scent follows these notes.
Gladiator drinking fermented wine to lower their fear pre fight to death in sweaty leather armour with weapons made of steel and wood.
I think this scent is very unqiue and special. Definitely nothing for every nose. Its not a crowd pleaser. Its not easy. Its complex and story telling.
You need to know to story to understand this scent.
Its opening is strong and musty. Similar to Monsieur by Frederic Malle with its patchouli monster, smelling wet and musty as well!
As I am a big fan of Monsieur, I think I will get along with Rudis very good.
Furthermore I had something on my mind that I could not combine. A fragrance I tested recently, that smell rather similar to Rudis.
Looking here on parfumo and checking for the similar scents, I was able to please that search.
B683 (and its extrait version) from
Barrios are both scents I know, like and admire for their composition. They are both quite hyped right now, what might increase the chance, that you know them.
Rudis is the wet and fruity version of them. Surely Rudis was created earlier, but there are similarities! Imagine wearing B683 on a rainy day, wearing grandpa’s old leather jacket that was packed up on your wet basement room!
I think you get the image!
For all lovers of special scents, that are must haves for those specials selection - go for it! You won‘t be dissappointed!
