Dark Red Smoky Mystique - Greetings from the Harz-er-Land
No, I don't mean the surrounding area of the German low mountain range, but the elusive Gunzburg scent.
I had to spray it on first, just a small amount, sniff... INCENSE!! garnished with nutmeg and roses as decoration. Wait a while, about 10 minutes. Sniff again (although the scent aura was clearly rising fine into my nose)--- ROSES!! Only ROSES!!.... No.... there is still the incense, not hidden or withdrawn.... I thought that at first.... It came delayed afterwards, along with finely grated nutmeg and a balsamic second resin.
Could it be myrrh? But this is not listed in the ingredients. Sometimes a scent component is simply "missing" in such lists.
I then waited at least two hours with a "Direct-On-Wrist-Smelling-Attempt" (I can still perceive the scent aura well, smokier and rosier now... but now I can't help it and... nose to wrist... a very herb-grassy vetiver underlies the entire scent bundle, still an impression of balsamic myrrh. In the midst of the dark velvet-red shimmering roses with a smoky-grassy radiance.
In the meantime, I sprayed a second sprayer on the inner elbow of the other arm to now describe the initial scent from the opposite perspective... first the roses, interspersed with vetiver, then, delayed, the incense with a "myrrhic" touch and the nutmeg...
Strange, strange. But let's wait. Maybe I'll know more later...
Mystical and deep and (still) elusive.... but perhaps a complete "clarification" is not even necessary. To not disturb the mystique...

Masculine Rose
When it comes to Terry de Gunzburg, I haven't had much to say until now. None of the fragrances had come my way until today. Then came the newsletter from Essenza Nobile, introducing the two new ones from TdG. Night Red and an Infernal Rose? Curiosity has always been a driving force for me. So I had the two colorful drops sent to me as samples.

The purplish Rose Infernale caught me off guard! I, who appreciate the sweet and elegant aspects of roses, am hit in the face with a rose dipped in incense that brings tears to my eyes. WOW indeed!

But no worries, even though the top note would certainly not be a buying incentive for me, the rest is - Ergoproxy, take note - beautiful! Despite the incense, or perhaps because of it??

However, it seems to be common these days for fragrances to have a short lifespan - for me, about 4 hours and only a moderate sillage, which I am actually fine with.

The purplish Rose Infernale is, in my opinion, THE masculine rose.

The rose here is very cool and elegant - it reminds me of Black Tie or Dark Rose. The nutmeg is initially very noticeable and flashes up again and again. Vetiver gives the composition this masculine cool elegance and dims the incense to a nice, pleasant level.

I don't find the rose infernal; rather, it's masculine or at least androgynous. In any case, this Rose Infernale has something!

Strong rose with no discernable sharpness - it does smell slightly perfume-y, but still grounded. Like a soap you could find at a head shop

Metrosexual incense-rose aura for the young urban scent gentleman. Very well done and not generic at all, but refreshingly different.

Royal noble rose and melancholic incense dance their last, very last, ultimate tango in the purple ballroom.

Cool vetiver smoke puts rose in a new pale light, ash gray like a prehistoric morning on a barren planet.
Very successful.

The church stands near a rose garden. Sacred clouds of incense waft musky winds over polished sandalwoods. Cough!

Mystical incense fog envelops the dark castle. Deep in the rose hedges, Sleeping Beauty sleeps. It may take a while for the prince.

Unfortunately, it smells like artificial rose to my nose, with an unpleasant sharp incense mix and a bit of prickly vetiver undertone. Too harsh and uneven for me.

Chilled rose ...
with smoky notes & herb-green.
Definitely works as unisex thanks to vetiver & incense.
But nothing hellish here :)

with leaves and stems of vetiver
and thorns of incense

A dark rose painted on green milk glass. It makes sunlight and moonlight glow when it hits. Rose incense nights!
