Versatile Ingredient for Scent Combinations
By itself, this is pure leather along with the sweetness characteristic of it. However this is not a "vanilla" sweetness that leathers often rely on. Because there is no vanilla (or any other recognizable profile) synthesis is a magic ingredient that takes my other scents in new directions. It nicely compliments suedes such as "Cuir Béluga | Guerlain" and Bottega Veneta Eau de Parfum (RIP). But my favorite combination so far has been with anything violet scented, specifically Guerlain's Insolence Eau de Parfum. There is a powerful trifecta created when layering this with Insolence Eau de Toilette and another of Xyrena's offerings, Neon Sunset. The experiments continue as I continue to reach for this incredible scent. Although difficult to aquire Xyrena scents are, Surrender to Chance in the USA has decants available and I've already moved on to a larger portion. This one deserves a permanent home in my collection for all eternity.
