Miami City Rhythm 2021

Hot Building Block
You take a dark, deeply aromatic rum barrel. The inside is still wet and soaked with alcohol. You fill the barrel with plenty of tonka beans - just the right amount. Carefully selected light flowers are added, wrapped in tobacco leaves and gently nestled on top of the tonka beans. The barrel is ignited from below.
The tonka beans roast gently, caramelize, and release their warm, soft scent in fantastic harmony with the flowers, which are gradually dried by the heat. Into the blazing flames, you blow ground saffron, which smolders in the heat and explosively releases its aroma. The fire draws oxygen from the air, the room heats up, becoming searingly hot. Tingling tobacco notes unfold their volume and tickle the nose. You cool the blaze with creamy, milky thick coconut milk. Into the mixture of flames, hot aromatic embers, and coconut milk, you finely grate the zest of a cinnamon stick. The essential oils are released immediately, giving your creation the final touch.
This is exactly how Miami smells to me.
City Rythm is a perfume house that certainly few in the German-speaking world have on their radar. This may be primarily due to the incredibly poor accessibility, especially considering the high import costs, but what this niche house consistently delivers in terms of masterpieces is hard to describe in words and should definitely be experienced with the nose. The scent compositions, in my opinion, are characterized not only by their incredible complexity and harmony, with a lot of creativity and a truly fine eye (or nose) for detail. Rather, the entire scent impression can always be broken down into its components despite their complexity, allowing them to be clearly identified. I always enjoy this process and especially learn to better understand the harmony of certain fragrance materials. Due to the complex creations and the described "puzzle-like" experience, I would even go so far as to say that this niche house is quite suitable for learning and understanding, and consequently also excellent for an entry into the world of niche perfumes.
Miami smells to me like no other fragrance so far - not even close. It comes across as creamy gourmand, is definitely sweet and spicy but still fresh with a citrusy touch, which makes it in no way sticky or heavy.
The base is a play of a dark boozy note into which a fine light tobacco is nestled. To prevent it from coming across too harsh, the combination is softened with tasty sweet tonka bean.
After several hours, alongside the long-lasting booziness, a dominant saffron note remains. To me, Miami then smells primarily warm, spicy, and salty. The tingling in the nose also remains.
The sillage is incredibly powerful, and the longevity is good for about eight hours even with just one spray. This makes the fragrance extremely economical, and you really get more than enough for your money here.
Anyone who gets the chance should definitely experience this. One of my absolute favorite fragrances!

Although I don't notice the rum at all...
