Complex blend of peppercorns with a realistic raspberry note
I'm almost through all of my Superfumista fragrances from my discovery set. I've been having a lot of fun discovering niche scents that really are different from what I'm accustomed to. I was pretty wary of this one since peppercorns do tend to come out magnified on my skin, but I was pretty confident Benjamin Sachs knew what he was doing (afterall, I've been testing a few of his perfumes these last days).
I get a nice blast of fresh and uplifting bergamot as soon as the perfume lands on my skin. Doesn't take long though before peppercorns and raspeberries arrive. I've got to say the raspberry in here is the most photorealistic one I've smelled up until now. I find raspberries are rather hard to emulate in perfumery as they're often too tart, too sweet and almost always synthetic to the nose. This one smells like raspberries freshly picked from the field. Slightly sweet, but with some subtle tartness and lovely freshness. Peppercorns are very well blended here. They aren't overwhelming, but lend a nice, deep and complex spiciness to the perfume. I can't make out every different peppercorn here, but they're gentle and well-behaved. They also remarquably fit in well with the raspberry note. As it moves on, peppercorns turn to woodiness while raspberries move to the background, lending a sweet fruity vibe to everything. The drydown is warm like a hug thanks to the cashmeran and sweet with a relaxing woody note that brings everything together.
I'll definitely be testing this one out again as the raspberry note and the peppercorn have positively surprised me. I don,t know if I'll be going for a full bottle, but I've got to admit I'm amazed at how Sachs combined all these notes together to form a great, cohesive scent. A must-try for sure!
