Spicy and healthy
The ginger! What did you think? I can't say whether Aria would make you hot. Besides, we're here on parfumo and not on the Reeperbahn. Putting ginger in the top note doesn't happen every day either. The tuber itself is very healthy and can be used in a variety of ways, as a tea, grated in salads, in Asian cuisine etc.. I always use the fresh tuber myself, just wash it, but don't peel it. The spiciness of ginger is also not to be sneezed at. However, if you have blocked sinuses, I would use horseradish if I were you - freshly grated, not from a jar. This will clear the olfactory bulb and flames will burst out of your nose. After that, you won't dare to have any blockages in any cavities. From treatment tips back to Sisley. What pleases me is that Sisley hasn't jumped on the sweet, sweeter, sweetest bandwagon like Üsel with the eternal opium squadron or Guerlain with the perpetual vanilla cacaphony. No, I have nothing against vanilla and Guerlain can do vanilla to excess, but I would like to see a great chypre from them again. Nothing rehashed, but something innovative. They used to be able to do that too.
Well, Sisley has also floundered around with the eternal Eau de Soir range. It started in 2001 and went on until 2025 and, if it continues like this, until 2148.
Aria starts really spicy. You know what spicy is? Slightly spicy, with a slightly sweet finish. The dream aria (loosely translated) is not a soprano voice, but rather a mezzo-soprano, i.e. somewhat darker and raspier due to the citrus notes.
Nutmeg is good in spinach or mashed potatoes, but is poisonous in large doses. Here we only have a micromüh.
Nothing blooms here. The slight spiciness carries through to the base. At no point does the aria become fluffy. There is something going on here even without moss, which means that a chypre can survive without oakmoss. The damp earthiness of patchouli and a hint of resinous benzoin are enough.
A successful throw from Sisley.
