Evocative and unique destination fragrance

City Rhythm makes scents to order. When I initially tried it upon delivery, the red wine was overpowering and astringent; after sitting for a few weeks (honestly, I forgot), it has balanced substantially. It's sparkling and vivacious, great for daytime or a date night, likely far less suitable for the office.

Sparkling red wine is prevalent at the open and well into the drydown, the cherry, bitter orange, and pomegranate give a sangria feeling, rich and bright. The chocolate and amber at the end are gentle but quite noticeable and round everything out perfectly, taking the sharp edges from the wine. This is one of the few destination scents I've tried that is actually evocative of the place it's named after. Very well done.
