Very helpful Review
By the Fireplace of Memory
Maderas de Oriente Oscuro is easily associated with dark burnt woods. For me it's a kind of return to olfactory memories linked to a Portuguese fireplace in the interior of the country.
It feels like I'm having breakfast with homemade honey in front of a fireplace in a village lost in the interior of Portugal. Outside there is cold, rain and the winter wind. Inside the house, we huddle by the fire and the smell of sweet smoke clings to our skin, hair and clothes. When we go to sleep, we take this smell from the fireplace into our blankets and our dreams.
On the skin, the perfume opens strong and with a complex, rather smoky aroma, as if we were really feeling burning woods close to us. But I don't feel the smoke like a liturgical accord. Rather like a burning of aromatic and resinous wood caught in a dark forest dotted with moss and mysterious mushrooms.
In the intermediate phase, the sweet notes of honey and cherry can be noticed, which comfort and tame the initial spiral of smoke. There's also a hint of blond tobacco and an earthy, spicy vibe.
It is not a creation for beginners but for those looking for something different and conceptual. A perfume that will not bring “compliments”. It is not an easily “wearable” aroma, but rather for those who dare to dive, probably alone, into a profound and radical almost meditative experience. An experience in which we don't care about exterior “compliments” but only about being sheltered in our interior landscape. Where we feel good.
