Rum Raisin
I'd like to first thank Svensk Parfym for the opportunity to test their first six fragrances.
Sadel turns out to be quite different from what I imagined reading the olfactive pyramid. The notes listed, such as butterscotch, caramel, vanilla and leather, led me to expect a more or less creamy texture. But what I smell on my skin, is primarily a boozy, woody and rather dry fragrance.
The booze here is not the kind of plum wine-like gooezy sweetness in many boozy amber/vanilla fragrances, but rather like the astringent yet sweet alcohol burst of rum raisin flavour, with a rich woody backbone of oak. At the same time, there isn't much deep ambery note. Therefore, the woody sweetness in Sadel feels more luminous and sugary than a few dark boozy amber/vanilla to me.
Sadel doesn't have much dramatic evolution on my skin. There is a bit of chewy tobacco and leather undertone in the far dry down, but not substantial enough to cut the boozy sugary sweetness. The sillage is mostly moderate, and the longevity is around 10 hours on me.
I find the rum raisin effect very original. But because of my relatively low tolerance with boozy sugary note, even though there is a significant portion of dry woody note, it's still a bit too intense for my liking, That being said, fans of boozy fragrances might want to give it a try, especially if you're interested in finding something similar to rum raisin.
