An Evening by the Campfire
Last night we made a fire in the clearing. It was cold. The wood from the forest was still a bit damp. It took a while for the fire to catch. With the rising night wind, the smoke surrounded us. Later, we wrapped potatoes with herbs in aluminum foil and tossed them into the embers. One person had brought a bottle of cheap bourbon. We sat there in silence, watching the fire slowly burn down. We were sitting in a brightly lit circle. Beyond this boundary, the world was black. From the front, the heat of the fire glowed on my face. And at the same time, the chill of the forest crawled over my back. We spent hours like this. When the fire had burned down and no one wanted to search for wood in the forest anymore, we made our way home through the dark woods. The stars twinkled above us through the canopy of leaves. I was full and warmed by the food and the alcohol. I buried my cold hands in the pockets of my leather jacket.
This morning, the only reminders of that wonderful evening are my boots crusted with old leaves and mud, and the scent of smoke and wood and thyme that has trapped itself in the leather jacket.
Attar al Ghutra is a true men's fragrance. Distinctive. Gritty, real smoke, but still warm from the fire. I find myself repeatedly smelling my arms. The scent is intriguing with a slightly fruity note that shines through. The fragrance does not have much development. You come home as you went out. There is nothing ambiguous here. This is masculine, clear self-confidence. This is not a scent for a suit or Goretex.
The bottle is made of square, white glass and, together with the also square, quite heavy metal cap, gives a rather high-quality impression. The whole thing is securely packed in a white, fairly large box with a magnetic closure. Surrounding it is another cardboard box, printed like the bottle. This is how Orientals are often packaged. The colors on the bottle and the box, pink and a strong flocked red, seem a bit playful and inappropriate for the distinctive scent (but in reality, not as bright as in the photo above). The box, on the other hand, shines with understatement. Unlike, for example, the boxes from Reyane Tradition, only one side is printed here. This surely corresponds more to European taste.
The overall rating speaks for itself.
A heartfelt thank you to RustCole, who let me have the fragrance, and especially to Irini, who first drew my attention to this amazing scent.
