Twilight

Dusk wants to spread its wings,
The trees stir ominously,
Clouds drift like heavy dreams -
What does this dread mean?

(From: Twilight - Joseph von Eichendorff, 1788-1857)

SB7 is not a scent of the forest, no, it can be found in the metropolises of Paris, London, and New York. SB7 is nocturnal, in the twilight of dusk, at the transition from day to night, it opens its gates.
Here we are not presented with a fair-weather scent, no, we are dealing with a dazzling natural force in the corset of urban parks, grand villa gardens, and rooftops above the city.

The lavender does not show itself in its dreamy-lovely, provincial side; rather, it reveals its profound depths, together with its companions anise, castoreum, and civet. The reflecting parallel worlds of SB7 enter into an intimate and challenging relationship with the wearers of the fragrance.
The scent is made for generations that move between nightclubs, opera houses, bars, and grand hotels.

“For me, the woman, every female being for the man, is a potential bearer of salvation. In the ritual of sexual union, the sacred seems to emerge.”

(From: Parisian Apprenticeship - Nicolaus Sombart, 1923-2008)

SB7 is a fragrance that lives from nights soaked in pleasure; here, the one who wears the scent rules and makes the man or woman submissive to them - while also protecting, challenging, but not surrendering the counterpart.

This lascivious and profoundly cultivated scent, underscored by amber, incense, and labdanum, was created for special moments. Flower bowls in the salon are graced by distant candlesticks with dim light, the rose bouquet rests in magnificent vases, while the moon peeks through a slit in the silk curtains into the bedroom. SB7 breathes the scent of the old world, is nostalgic, arrogant, and always desirable.
Archaic and high culture form a whole in SB7.

A true gem when it comes to being a gentle scent where it's needed. It shows its 'skills' against various backdrops.
Well written!

Oh, thank you so much! You're absolutely right, it's like a chameleon in a way, adapting to its surroundings while always dominating the situation. Truly 'gentle' on many levels.
