This packaging, this bottle and last but not least this fragrance...
... call for an anecdote.
Admittedly, I don't have an appropriate one yet, as I have yet to experience my fragrance adventure with this perfume.
However, I am happy to share my first impressions.
I am very glad that I simply tested this fragrance at the perfumery retailer of my choice BEFORE I looked at the fragrance pyramid.
There is actually a lot to be said against my modest understanding of the nose that this experience
flattering to my nose.
According to the fragrance pyramid in the top note citrus fruits, in the past these fragrances were a guarantee that they would turn into toilet spray lemon on my skin. But then my wife provided the decisive clue. Citrus is NOT the same as lemon and my olfactory quandary was cleared up and I was able to enjoy the plum and the green notes.
In the heart I mainly perceive the lavender in combination with the cumin/cinnamon mixture; smells wonderful, I can't go into it any further because not much else happens here.
Off to the base and in the base smells the power or something like that.
What comes to mind about the notes here:
Four times love and once oh my... Oud
My first real oud experience was (unfortunately) with the Elevated Oud by Zara (I am almost ashamed to mention this name in this review) and to
keep this tragic story short it was a terribly disgusting experience.
But not so with this prestige perfume where the name says it all. Trade Routes, Halfeti Leather, Penhaligon's and, above all, the story of its origins in what was then the port of the world.
When reading this description of the past, I found myself nodding in affirmation and feeling as if the fragrance was telling me the story straight from my nose to my brain An experience that I have never had with any other fragrance. In conclusion, however, I am a great friend of this type of fragrance.
Blind buy candidate? No, absolutely not (to be honest, it's not a perfume), but if you can identify with the fragrance notes in any way, it's at least worth a test!
