Intoxicating sweetness from Strawberry - Caramel combo, best during summertime
Female leaning

I like to wear this scent during the summertime and I fell in love with two years ago while testing it in hot Italy weather.

How is this beauty? It opens up with a juicy Strawberry and Wild Strawberry notes and I love it. It’s quite sweet since there is a caramel note as well but woody and leather notes push the sweetness down after the dry down. I think this is so special for me since wild strawberry brings me back to my childhood memories when picking up those and when stringing them into the hay. I don’t get any Raspberries but I think it blends into Strawberries. This is not typical light girly Strawberry scent, it’s unique like all SHL:s creations. There is all the time certain kind of depth in the background. Juice vibe turns into soft Vanilla and Tonka but I can smell the hint of the Strawberry until the end.

During the cold days this is not so beautiful but it’s just my opinion. Anyway this is really different in cold than in really hot so I recommend to test how it differs in your skin. All that synthetic feeling disappears in hot and all the notes are blending better. The hotter the better. Strawberry and caramel melt on my skin into very intoxicating sweet aroma. In wintertime I'm wondering why I even have this perfume and when the summer arrives I remember why I fell in love with this scent.

I have noticed that some people compare this to La Capitale by Xerjoff and even think that’s this is redundant if you already have La Capitale but imo there is nothing same how these two perform. There is many same notes in those two and it looks like a same but especially Strawberry note is very different in those. La Capitale is really delicate compared to this. This has more character and a deeper woody touch. I think there is different occasions to wear those.

synthetic strawberry but enjoyable
is the strawberry in this synthetic? yes, but I don’t think that’s a fault here. I personally don’t think every fruit note in a perfume has to smell dead ringer realistic and the strawberry here works. This is strawberry syrup with cinnamon dusted berries, sweet vanilla, and woody leather. This is a very sweet and fruity scent grounded with darker accords and it makes for a balanced blend. I think this is one of the more interesting strawberry perfumes I’ve smelled, if not the polarizing.

The snake venom
Imagine you are bitten by a snake in a nightmare but then realize that it wasn't a snake at all but a rather pretty lady.
You wake up and smell this:

Welcome
Stephane humbert Lucas - Venom Incarnat

An adult fruit cocktail with strawberries, raspberries and blackberries
If that's too berry for you
you can add tonka bean, vanilla and caramel.

You should still familiarize yourself with the fragrance beforehand
To avoid that moment at the party when you ask who smells so good so that you realize it's yourself
The question of what you're wearing will lead to intense conversations and maybe even new contacts will be made and there will be more perfume enthusiasts :)

Venom incarnat means that this fragrance embodies poison. You have been bitten by a snake but instead of dying you now smell brutal.

In my opinion, Venom Incarnat is not too intrusive, but it still shows what it can do and is still very present even after 6-8 hours.

It's not the fragrance with the biggest wow effect, but when the initial leather fades it becomes a very pleasant companion.

Has anyone ordered strawberry with leather?
I was looking for a strawberry fragrance for a very long time and I have to say that almost all fragrances were very synthetic and artificial. When I smelled the complete range from SHL and read the contents, I was simply amazed. You can really smell the notes that are listed 1:1. At the beginning the scent smells very feminine because of the strawberry note but with time it develops into a leathery sweet scent. It is an absolute recommendation for anyone who prefers fruity, leathery fragrances.

Does justice to the name
I was very excited about the bottling, as I was sure that the fragrance was made for me.
During the first test run, I had a very sweet fragrance on the day before and first got a thick load of leather on my face. Then strawberry, blackberry and wild berry jam.
OK, so testing again...
Immediately a little more pleasant, even sweeter. You really get jam vibes here, like freshly smeared on bread. The fragrance components keep fighting for supremacy... so then again this somewhat pungent leather...
Not the kind of leather we know from others, but rather a slightly biting leather.
I mean, it fits the name, of course, but do I want to smell like that?
In between, Venom Incarnat smells really delicious, jammy-sweet and also the drydown, when tonka bean comes through a bit, is better... but do I always want to have this impression in between that very sweet perfume has run out in my old leather handbag?
So far, I don't think the fragrance will soak in. A bit of a shame. I would have liked to experience this composition without cedar and with a different leather.

Wonderful red fruits/strawberry concoction! Doesn't smell sintetic at all. A full plate if you want a realistic fragrance with strawberry.

After a fresh and juicy fruity-sweet opening, this thick and sweet spicy-fruity Gourmand, settles to a dry and leathery earthy-woody base.

I kinda like this one better than god of fire, due to the more spicy dry down, surprisingly not synthethic at all. Great but pricey

Sugared fruit w/ some powdery aspects. Doesn't smell synthetic to me, but it is perhaps too youthful. Feminine, spring-fall. Lacks sillage.

With the notes listed this sounds really nice... But when I smelled it, all I got was rubber or that mouthwash they use at the dentist's.

Sugared Berrys with a hint of Leather. For me, this is my loud Fragrance for special occasions. Unisex which means more feminin

Strawberries with a leathery undertone, definitely more fruity than leathery. Super long lasting and powerful.

Dark berries enchants, but that's not all. Natural and refined, it captivates with a single spray, even on warm days.
