Spring Incense

Ombre indigo to me is one of those scents that come up to my mind when I think of the early Spring days. A distinct smell of plums, leather and incense creates really interesting blend that reminds me of the first open-air farmers markets/bazars where you can buy early or imported fruits, someone sells his leather works and you can recognize a whiff of some incense burning nearby in the shop that sells gemstones, incense sticks and other “exotic” stuff.

The smell is not overwhelming at all, you get hints of the perfume every time the wind blows outside or you’re moving and the warm spring air floats around you. I get a lof of beautiful, somewhat resinous (probably because of leather + incense) plum. Not gourmand by any means, I don’t get the urge to “eat” the smell, you know what I mean :)
Must try for those who love incense and who are searching for something unique in this area.

DANGER - for the wearer

OMBRE INDIGO is a power demonstration. Hot, interesting and manly. The notes get involved in a smoky and sligthly inky-leathery swirl. The spices and the smoke provide a natural sense, not choking at all. It gives me the feeling of a night swim in a small lake, on the shore a campfire, behind the camp a dark and measureless pine-forest. So water, smoke, woods. Wonderful treat!

Perfect name! The color of the liquor is enchanting dark blue, that fits to the perfume. If this fragrance would be a color, it would be definitely that shade of blue.
This scent is classic and modern at the same time, a real seducer, but I would not suggest to wear it on a date. Rather befits for a casual captivation.
Splash it soberly. It can cause dumbfounding situations.

I decided at the first moment after the test, that this fragrance is dedicated for men, and I left the shop. I look quite average, nothing is enough markable on me. That afternoon 3 men accosted me, 2 on the street, 1 on the subway. No one from them mentioned my perfume, but since such case never happened to me before or after it, I can not blame anything else, but OMBRE INDIGO. It was a frightening day for me, and I was really glad, when I locked the door behind myself at my home. I will never wear that again in public.

EVOLUTION

Unique. At first, I detected some petrolium or rubber after some time the smell turns out out to be some perfect jam. Long lasting. if the sillage would match with lasting power, it would be an utterly great perfume.The evolution is perfect and umpredictable.

The perfect tobacco, smoky, cigar scented !

This is my first review here and I dedicate it to this wonderful fragrance!

Below is my initial impression of the perfume when I acquired it a year and a half ago.
The change in feeling now is that I no longer have any problems with the second phase :). 10/10

I've been searching for the perfect tobacco, smoky, cigar scented perfume for over a year now, and I can say I've finally found it in the form of Ombre Indigo, which was the usual "blind" buy. It turned out to be a total hit right on target. This is such a tripolar scent (The Beauty - The Devil - The Beast) that the label "unique" fits in its full meaning.
This unbridled wild beast opens in an amazing way (perhaps the most beautiful phase - The Beauty) which lasts 2-3 hours and the first 30 minutes are divine. Fresh, slightly sweet with a hint of bewitching appeal. I can't distinguish any single ingredient, everything is woven together in a great way and very balanced.
Phase 2 is I don't know how to say it in the most diplomatic way - I wanted to peel the skin off my hand (the worst moments of the whole palette that the perfume owns - The Devil) which lasts for another 3 maybe 4 hours. Very resinous, smoky, heavy, it hit me at one point. Here, "The Three Musketeers" - leather, olibanum and vetiver come to the fore, their combination erupted like lava from a long-dormant volcano in a very merciless way for my taste.
After all that ordeal I went through, from the "caressing on the back" to the "stroke with wet rag on the face" came that cigarette tobacco I had been searching for months. The smell is when the tip of the cigarette/cigar is lit up by the burning tobacco at the moment of pulling from the cigar. At the same time, there is such a tart moderate sweetness that makes this so unique - The Beast!
For about 10 minutes, I literally did not take my hand off my nose while inhaling deeply from this blue elixir. There is no tobacco anywhere in the pyramid. Here the combination of plum, saffron, papyrus and tuberose are so wrapped in each other and recreate 100% what I described in the last dry phase of the perfume. I can't wait to wear it longer, but I'll have to wait a few months for it to cool down again to enjoy it longer. Not that it can't be applied on cool summer evenings, but you have to be careful with the sprayer.
And finally, projection (5-6 hours you are like a cloud) and durability (over 12 hours, even more, but after that it becomes a skin scent) at the top level, and my rating is 9/10. If it weren't for those difficult 3-4 hours of the middle phase, I would have given it a well-deserved 10.

Spicy leather and plum blend with smoky woods and olibanum. Warm, cozy, and unique - leathery with a subtle saffron and inky sweetness.

This is one of those fragrances I have to teach myself to smell. I love that. The briefs opening I smell is joyful but will return when I have learned
