A beautiful blend of pear and citrus fruits, with the pear coming through much more. In my opinion, it is something for the younger clientele and not for anti-synthetics. I discovered this fragrance DNA from the manufacturer Soprano. However, the Erba Pura by Xerjoff was easier to get hold of. On the whole, it has brutal longevity and sillage and is a wonderful fragrance.

It all started a few years ago when the scent was often in the air when I was walking in the city center of Vienna. Each time, I wondered what kind of masterpiece of perfume was wafting into my nose. A short time later, I found out that this sweet saffron mixture is called "Baccarat Rouge". In the beginning, I loved wearing it a lot, but after the hype, I have to admit that I am now a little ashamed to wear it. However, I still love to smell it.

I had already heard a lot about this perfume through TikTok, so I had high expectations.
The packaging is large, heavy, beautiful and elaborately made.
The bottle just the same. Luxurious. A lot of work went into it.

At the beginning I notice the fresh and fruity raspberry. The oud supports it in the background.
Then it becomes leathery and masculine. Super rich and dominant.
I have received positive feedback from almost everyone and you can definitely buy it blindly.

260€ for 50ml is already very expensive, but you get top quality accordingly.
This perfume is clearly top tier, right at the top.

As a perfume fan, I naturally went to Harrods in London. Right at the entrance to "Floor 6 - Salon De Parfums" I was greeted by a small stand from Ex Nihilo. Of course I tried all the testers and the Blue Talisman really surprised me. What is that? I've never smelled anything like it. Very aquatic, the pear and tangerine are fresh and juicy. It makes me want to go on a summer beach vacation, an absolute insider tip! The fragrance will still get the hype, mark my words

It's a cold Saturday evening in London. The city is alive and I'm on my way to Harrods shopping center. I head straight to Floor 6 - Salon De Parfum where I am greeted by a stand from Ex Nihilo. Curious, I sniff the samples as I had never heard of the brand before. Positively surprised, I enter the Ex Nihilo store where the store manager presents me with the "Harrods Exclusive"
I wasn't exactly thrilled at first, but the smell has developed sooo well.
Luxurious caramel and vanilla.
It's hard to put into words. Incredibly good!
400£ for 100ml is a lot but I will definitely treat myself to it.

Btw the fragrance is one of Iman Gadzhi's favorites. There is also a YouTube video about it.
