A beast

This is the reason why samples exist - Crystal Saffron is NOT a safe blind buy. Don’t let the comparisons to BR540 fool you: while it does have some common notes, it is a very different animal. And I mean “animal” in more than one way. I had a visceral negative reaction to a point where this fragrance made me sick. I can’t get this beast off from my wrist even with the dish soap. It has nuclear projection and tenacity. Oh my! And I am not among the fainthearted when it comes to perfume.

Candied Musky Saffron

Crystal Saffron is candied saffron wrapped around musks (has a vibe very similar to Parisian Musk) and blended with smokey/ incense vibes. ⁣
⁣
Coming to "Crystal" in the name, it definitely makes a lot of sense: To me, it portrays a few things, mineral nuances, and sugar candy-like shimmer everywhere. ⁣
⁣
Crystal Saffron, just like its other siblings, is very minimalistic, has an edge and signature and the musky/ sweet saffron just projects in the air (thanks to the ambroxan). It definitely has a middle-eastern flair without being too heavy. ⁣
⁣
Overall, If you like the DNA of Matiere Premiere fragrances, plus, enjoy saffron in fragrances or as a spice, you would definitely like this one. A fragrance that is potent without being loud. A easy recommendation to sample for sure. ⁣

I speak about the fragrance more in detail here with Aurelien.

Saffron and Saffron

We are living a new perfume era. Once the Aventus thing has gone, now we’re living the Baccarat Rouge era, where everything gets inspired by that.

Everything that has saffron reminds of BR like pineapple aventus, but not everything is necessairly the same.

Crystal Saffron has a bright sparkling and citrousy opening, while the drydown gets close to BR540 with that pungent middle eastern saffron note, metallic, modern and molecular.

It’s different enough to have both, as this hasn’t that cloying sweetnes but yeah, this starts to get a bit boring.

Anyways, i really like it, but i’m sure in some years this will be forgiven like all the aventus-like stuff.
