For a nickel and a dime..
For not a few the best fragrance from the already highly traded Marly house, but still always something in the second row behind the two Laytons and "Herod" - "Carlisle" is a darkened fruit of the noble class!
"Carlisle" by Parfums de Marly is probably the finest oud scent with no oud in it at all, or at least listed. But we all know that doesn't have to mean anything. An oriental creamy apple strudel with woody wearable elements and facets that never fail to delight and captivate. Sometimes masculine harsh, sometimes feminine tender. Always ingeniously appealing. Sometimes earthy dark, almost musty, sometimes lighter and more gourmand to bite into. "Carlisle" has a clear DNA and direction, yet dozens of surprising as well as somehow fitting triads that always leave you speechless. In a positive sense. And I guess that's what you call great art. More of an autumn scent for me. Somewhere in luxury land between "Boss Bottled" and "Encre Noir". Absolutely outstanding. Perfect blend. It doesn't get much more delicious and harmonious than that.
Flacon: heavy and... give it!
Sillage: potent and never misses
Durability: 10 hours and more
Conclusion: bye bye, Mr. American Pie? Rather hello you delicious treat for suit and proposal!
