Désert in bottle
tested at the spring store in Lyon Bellecour. I had the pleasure of discovering some references from the Prada private collection.

The bottle from the oriental collection is really beautiful, elegant and refined. It makes you want to try it.

the pchit then the disillusionment, I was disillusioned because it looks a lot like memo shams or shl mortal skin.

this perfume smells of heat and dryness, I had the impression of being in the desert and looking for an oasis, littering a rocky ground with dead snake skins. the name was therefore well found, the perfume corresponds to it.

It's one of the rare ones that I find can be worn in any season, with a preference for winter to seek the heat of the desert. a rather masculine perfume and for those over 35.

This is not my style of perfume, otherwise I would have kept my mortal skin.

So this perfume will not be added to my collection, I advise you to test it before purchasing because it is special.

By The Fireplace meets Peau de Bête in cozy mode. Slightly animalistic, warm-cold, spicy-fiery-woody, creamy. Unisex and beautifully crafted!

The opening is like a club. Lots of honey, lots of saffron, cumin adds a nice sweatiness, then it becomes softer and woody-animalic.

Not a very happy combination of oriental spices with a powdery, honey-sweet base. It lacks body and harmony for me.

Honey, saffron, oud, musk, and leather. Warm and captivating. Oriental through and through. Not too overpowering. Sample available.

A honey bomb with strong spices and a hint of leather in the finish. You really have to like it; it's a bit too much for me!

No, I can't handle this scent - it's almost an assault on my nose. Cumin and I will never be friends.

The initially intense saffron-honey sweetness is gradually replaced by cypress & musk. In the base, it's spicy-warm with a hint of leather.

This opening
A mix of fermented fruit (thanks to saffron) with honey
Later, cumin joins in nicely with subtle woody notes.
