Herbert Specter in the Sage Suite...
the time has come - the private label from the distribution house "THE NOSE BEHIND," eagerly awaited by many attentive fragrance lovers for various reasons, has been released.
There are 8 fragrances in total that immortalize various places / encounters / thoughts / preferences / events in the life of Herbert Stricker in liquid form. As already known from the beloved Ugolini series, they have relied on the CCC perfumer trio that has often impressed me: Carbonnel / Calabro / Cerizza.
What has emerged is definitely a series that has a lot to offer - as it includes some unusual to unfamiliar combinations. Creations that, from my personal perspective, need time to explore.
However, one of them has simply revealed itself to me as an absolute hit right from the first spray: SUITS
I am, of course, fully aware that it is by no means "the most challenging fragrance" among the previous TNB scents - there are indeed much more complex compositions within the line. However, I now feel it is almost immensely important to emphasize that this should not influence the individual ranking (if there must be one) - but rather that what one celebrates the most should take the subjective top spot.
I have long observed a kind of strange trend in this regard. Of course - tastes are diverse and different - we know that. And that is wonderful! But somehow it seems to belong to a kind of good elite tone to only label fragrances as niche (niche/niche) or "valuable" that lean towards a certain dubious direction. One could almost say exaggeratedly: as soon as it starts to smell bad, it is art and can therefore be legitimized, the stinkier the more it costs. wtf? ;)
I absolutely do not share this opinion, and perhaps it is a bit hasty, but nonetheless, it is highly likely that SUITS is already my favorite. But the fine thing just smells good / good / good and puts me in a good mood - what more could I want?
I also find the dedication towards Harvey Specter, which I only learned about afterward, quite fitting, as the fragrance exudes a certain polished elegance throughout. Completely harmoniously balanced for "italo-dna" fruit/freshie fans like me :) never too intrusive yet still distinctive. Sorry at this point for the upcoming indulgent selfishness - but it is my review after all, right? :D = yes - I could bathe in it all day... :)
One may still have to admit that the base tone of the fragrance impression does not reinvent the wheel - but how often is it really like that when we are honest? Rarely to (almost) never? And yet, there is a kind of unique selling point for me, which is primarily triggered by the sage contained within. This gives the entire note composition between fruity / spicy and woody elements that certain something - most notably that which makes SUITS a genuine hit for me personally.
