Legend of the Lowlands
I am breaking new ground with Olivier Durbano fragrances - although curiosity has been dormant for years. With "Lapis-lazuli" I have directly taken on a chunk as an introduction - not because it bucks everything away, but because it is damn hard to classify and describe. A real ride from the head to the base, with several serpentines, U-turns and wooded moguls... That's olfactory sightseeing.
I would most likely describe this blue as a milky-menthoily fir scent, a little slumberhouse-light - but if that's too daring for you, you should test it yourself. He hooks more than a rabbit in mortal fear... "Lapis-lazuli" doesn't have much to do with its liquid colour according to my nose, brownish-green tones would have fitted better. But that doesn't matter how wrong the lottery numbers are. The scent is a balsamic cuddly maco before the Lord. That also contradicts itself. I know. But this week he just presented me with some puzzles and smelled different almost every day... The core remains: calming tea meets medical wood. A little smoke, a little sea noise, a little rough, a little peaty, slightly fruity and sweet. Very mature and unique. You'd think I was describing a whiskey... But it is a strikingly chic scent, whose dance between a few chairs succeeds as if he had never done anything else.
Flacon: could almost be a drugstore... but only at first sight. The overall presentation is edel.
Sillage: not as intense as its blue, but definitely not to be underestimated!
Shelf life: 8 hours and more
Conclusion: a real fragrance journey. But no matter where you go, it's almost always beautiful. A chameleon with grace and vision. Has seen the world and likes to share his impressions. Fascinating!
