Simply enchanting
Arabesque from The Merchant of Venice
The Merchant of Venice. The name gives away the origin of the fragrance house. The house, which was founded in Venice only in 2014, actually continues the perfumery art of Venice. In fact, Venice had been creating perfumes since time immemorial. Goods from Asia and the Orient arrived in the city through the Silk Road and were used, among other things, for fragrances. Today you can visit the Perfume Museum in Venice which illustrates the ancient art of perfumery. If I find the way another time to Venice, I will not miss it in any case.
The first acquaintance with this wonderful fragrance I had at our offline meeting with a dear user whose signature scent this is. She wore this that day and I always had this wonderful scent in my nose. Eventually I had a bottling to test and eventually couldn't help but have it myself.
Top notes: ginger, tobacco leaf, plum
Heart notes: cinnamon, tonka bean, cedar
Base notes: benzoin, vetiver, musk
At the first spray comes a slightly sweetish note. Which is indebted to a mixture of the plum with the tobacco leaf. I personally can not smell out ginger specifically. As it progresses, the sweet note reaches its peak which ends just in the right place for my taste as I don't like overly sweet scents. The scent has a smoky undertone to it. All in all, it is such an excellent composition as the individual scents blend together to form a complete unit. Absolutely brilliant. As it progresses, it becomes beautifully powdery and you feel velvety dressed. Velvety would be the perfect description for this fragrance.
The scent reminds me, also oriental, not of a souk like my Blue Amber does. But rather of the desert and the Bedouins, the camels and dromedaries. This scent is sensual, mysterious and has a certain depth to it. This scent also catapults me to my travels, this time to the desert. Of the camel ride in Morocco, the sunset and when we stayed in the desert in Oman. The moonlight and the cold sand between our toes and far and wide only the mystical desert punctuated by the moonlight and the light of camp. This is arabesque.
I personally find Arabesque a unisex fragrance with the slight tendency into the feminine. Projection and durability are bombastic. After 10-11 hours, the fragrance starts to become close to the body. I would assign this fragrance to the cold and also the cooler season even if I personally don't care. But I think times that it could be in high summer e weng much.
The bottle from the Murano Collection is inspired by the Ca' d'oro Palace in Venice, which originally had a dark blue painting with golden stone carvings on the facade. The bottle is very very classy and it is one of the prettiest bottles in my small collection. And heavy it is too. On the neck hangs a palette with the name of the fragrance and the lid represents a wind rose that is engraved on the head. I must say that I am very enthusiastic about this flacon art. But also the packaging is very beautifully held.
I hope very much that in the course of time the sweetish note is not strengthened and that I can have long pleasure in the fragrance.
Thank you for reading
