Vintage masterpiece by Prin Lomros
Mandodari was the name of Ravana's queen consort in the Hindu work Ramayana.
Accused femme fatale for the death of her two husbands, she lived a very sad life frowned upon by other people.
The fragrance in question, an evolution of Mandodari (base version), is meant to be a tribute to this story.
In Mandodari we have a layering of two aspects: floral/aphrodisiac and narcotic (Champaca, Tuberose, Gardenia, and Opium) and a more classical/vintage style with tobacco, smoke, and leather.
All this is blended into a Chypre structure.
Compared to the basic version, however, in Mandodari Mandodari the concentration is increased to 48 percent, slightly more smoky aspects are emphasized (Choya Raal), and much more depth and three-dimensionality is added with civet paste and natural ambergris.
The opening is pungent, penetrating, but at the same time warm and sweet/resinous.
You spray and find yourself in another era, where scents were imbued with quality and animalic raw materials.
Soon after, here comes the floral bouquet (a bit aldehydic) with jasmine and tuberose first.
It is a succession of olfactory emotions: sometimes more floral, sometimes more pungent and sometimes softer and more delicate.
Guys, this is a masterpiece by the creative and eccentric Thai nose Prin Lomros.
If you are lovers of chypre and "old time" scents you ABSOLUTELY must try it!
It is worth all the price it costs!
