A "flight out
For a long time I have been looking for him, have "watched" him, have "crept" around him, the 51 Pour Homme....
But why exactly the 51 PH? I can not say exactly...
I like many creations of Roja Dove so really really like and some of his masterpieces enrich my collection, about which I am very happy and grateful.... For me, many fragrances from Roja Dove are simply art - DOT.
But back to my weird "obsession" to 51 PH:
Again and again I looked at the fragrance notes and imagined how he may well smell in reality.... Thanks to Parfumo I also got a few impressions through the comments and statements of the community, but the fragrance perception is still always very different and personal....
Do you know this? You have this fragrance constantly in mind and wonder how it may be and you just want to have him like, even if you do not know how he then really smells and whether he then also like... (This could also be called addiction, but we leave that here but better just stay ;-P
For months I "tigerte" around the fragrance, considered me to order the Heritage version directly from Roja Dove, or wait and see if a flacon appears in the souk....
After weeks and months of looking and thinking, I finally decided to order the 51 PH Heritage directly from Roja Dove.... (According to the fragrance pyramid, the 51 PH perfume version of 2017 and the Heritage version have the same structure - could someone test both..? What are the differences?)
The ordering finger was quick and bang - it was done!
A feeling of joy came over me, of course I also wondered, "what if I don't like him so much?" Not that this would have been my first blind purchase, but because I had thought so long about the fragrance and imagined him, I was all the more curious...
Well, the excitement was there and I could hardly wait to finally have 51 PH Heritage in the mailbox....
When 51 PH Heritage had actually arrived after 10 days with me and I had taken him out of his packaging, I was super-happy and of course full of excitement...
One-two-three, eyes closed and sprayed once:
51 PHH opens with tangy citrus notes, accompanied by a delicately sweet lavender, not herbaceous or omahaft.... rather something "fresh-soapy"...
-A flight of the senses... the fragrance acts in the opening bright, fresh and open....
Immediately thereafter follow soft floral tones - surrounded by delicate spices and a hint of sweetness....
Ambrette I can recognize well, vanilla, as well as benzoin and a touch of oud....
-The fragrance gets a bit "darker" here ... He starts bright and fresh, then becomes increasingly darker and mystical - very exciting....
In addition, later come resinous-earthy tones, fine woods and a touch of leather...
-The fragrance drifts a little more, we still a little darker and earthier...
For me, the 51 PH Heritage is like a "flight out":
...one starts fresh, takes off, floats over mountains and valleys, high out.... then it goes a little deeper, past flowery meadows, through deep forests, the earth swirls up, it goes into a dark cave, it smells earthy dark, mystical and enchanted... again out of the cave, it's evening, brakes here the flight something, it all happens very slowly, you no longer floats, you run now... slowly ahead - from far away you recognize a paddock with horses - the leather saddles ready .... - you recognize it, but it is far away... one lies down on the ground and lets oneself sink into thoughts, looks into the sky, the sparkling stars, until the Aus-Fug ends here....
A rather complex fragrance with so many facets!
In the Heritage version, you could leave out the "pour Homme" in my opinion, because I think the fragrance is absolutely unisex...
