Not a perfume?
When the perfumer claims "this is not a perfume but an artisanal and artistic olfactory creation", it is obvious a few IFRA rules have been broken for the sake of an optimal olfactory experience. Being blessed with a thick elephant skin free of sensitivities towards raw materials, I am instantly drawn to perfumes that come with such disclaimers. In Angeliki I found another confirmation that this is where the good stuff at.
Angeliki has a great old-fashioned structure with an evolution through fresh, floral and balsamic stages and comes with a set of musks that truly purr. But this is not just another rebuild of the classics. Thanks to an interesting choice of florals, the heart notes show a multitude of facets and layers giving the perfume a unique character. The apricot note that is already there in the opening where it feels juicy-fruity, keeps on shining even deep into the balsamic drydown.
In social settings this has a somewhat understated appearance, while from up close the intense character is evident. In other words, wears like an absolute charm.
Batch 2023 Bottle 54/104
