Just John
John Wick has quit. Actually. He has achieved what many considered impossible. To make it´s peace with the underground and it´s crimes. And staying alive (by doing this). He just wanted to retire. Made a deal. And he kept his commitement. But paths crossed. Fate took over. And John returned. "Baba Yaga," the boogeyman, returned. Not just once.

A man who has lost everything he loved, has nothing left to lose.

This scent is his portrait.

Prin created this fragrance for Oxana Polyakovaals, as an exclusive Strangers scent for her Blooms Perfumery in London, where the entire Strangers collection is now available. She's a big fan of John Wick. And got a masterpiece from Prin.

A Cologne note with beautiful, unobtrusive lavender, some rose and dosed wood runs through the composition as the main theme. It's the scent of a well-groomed man. Understatement, without even exaggerating in nuances.

Just Style.

Like the smell of standing next to John in the elevator.

And then there are these other notes that create a special, mysterious aura. The metallic smell of weapons and bullets, pistol smoke in the fibers of the suit, the dust of the road or dry soil. And especially this great hay note, which describes the scent of skin kissed by the sun. Sensual. A part of the freedom John desires so much. A sign of peace.

"Well, John wasn't exactly the boogeyman. He was the one you sent to kill the f**ing boogeyman!" is a quote from the film.

He's the archetype of the modern antihero.

Prin poured that DNA into a scent.

An extremely exciting fragrance development
The Wicked John is definitely not an everyday scent and has a unique fragrance profile. While I find the top note a bit "strange," the fragrance becomes increasingly pleasant as it develops. The longevity on my skin exceeds 12 hours, and the sillage is also impressive.

The top note smells spicy, earthy, metallic, and green like hay, with an indefinable and peculiar freshness. The heart note initially presents tobacco but becomes significantly more floral over time thanks to lavender and Damask rose. The base reminds me of a walk through a coniferous forest with aromas of elemi resin, cedarwood, and a certain smokiness. Towards the end, a sweetness even emerges that vaguely reminds me of bourbon vanilla.

It took me a while to appreciate this fragrance. While I remain somewhat skeptical, especially about how the scent is perceived in my surroundings, I somehow like it. Many thanks to Nick for the many samples.

Among Prin Lomros' creations, this is the one which mostly reminds me of the best Nasomattos. But quality and composition here are superior.

This peculiar John is sometimes lightly aquatic, sometimes herbal, quite woody, and loves to dig in the dirt.
A strange freshness. *

Even the aquatic note works here. Smoky, slightly bitter-spicy, with a floral hint, it finishes earthy and spicy.

It's not bad: At first, I mainly noticed the bright resinous component, then complex green notes with lavender and a powdery touch.
