olfactory experience

Pleasantly warm sandalwood, smoky notes that are reminiscent of aoud, but are more subtle and caressing rather than beguiling. This fruity, present sweetness of saffron is rounded off by something balsamic.

When I smelled the fragrance for the first time in the duty free area at Berlin airport, I was immediately smitten. My vacation became secondary and the focus was on this fragrance. A wonderfully well-rounded fragrance that reminds me of an oversweetened version of Mancera's Aoud Vanille in its first 15 minutes, but lacks the vanilla and the scratchiness. However, this initial association fades after another 15 minutes and in the drydown the fragrance becomes delicately woody in its base and playfully sweet, almost fruity in its top note.

I (m) find the fragrance a wonderful companion for summer evenings and everyday life from fall onwards. I imagine a walk in the forest, an excellent dinner and a nice evening with a good glass of red wine at home. In general, a very high-quality and classy smelling fragrance with good sillage and excellent longevity.

My partner also likes the fragrance very much, but we have decided (although we share some fragrances) that this one is more likely to be "mine".

If I get it all, I'll definitely get it again.
