Duftiibus

I think you learn a lot about a region when you test and buy fragrances like this.

For me, this fragrance reflects a lot about Spain. The heart and soul of Spain.

First fruit and saffron and then leather and oud come through super and you don't want to miss it anymore. But be careful, it is mega potent and doesn't need many sprays.

Imagine the pulsating rhythm of flamenco, passionate steps in the glistening light of Spain. "Flamenco" by Ramón Monegal captures precisely this fire. A fruity-sweet prelude that develops into a sensual dance on the skin, as unforgettable as a passionate kiss under the Spanish sun. I've been to Spain a lot and this fragrance captures my memories beautifully for the dance and the shows I was able to attend.

Ramón Monegal, a house that pours Spanish soul into elegant flacons. For me, this fragrance is a small work of art that is unparalleled in its quality. If you love something special, you have to dive in here. It's not super creative, but it's simply a fragrance that you spray on and are happy with. You can feel the age of the perfume house, but it's timelessly beautiful.

"Flamenco" itself is a whirlwind of sweet fruits, accompanied by warm, spicy notes, reminiscent of the fiery guitar sounds and spirited movements of flamenco. Above all, fruit and leather are present in a beautifully crafted form. A fragrance that lingers long and intensely, like an unforgettable evening full of rhythm and emotion.

Conclusion: "Flamenco" awakens a longing for Spanish passion and fiery dance. The top quality of the bottle and the packaging underline the claim of this fragrance. It comes in a plastic box with a mirror. The bottle is beautifully made and the spray head is really one of the better ones. If you like very projecting fragrances, Flamenco is perfect for you. Ramón Monegal ignites olfactory fireworks here that you have to experience.
I really like the flacons, only the lid could perhaps be a little more solid.

Kinetic's Sillage is more than just a fragrance; it's an olfactory journey that takes me straight to the winding streets of Barcelona. The composition of old leather and sweet raspberries perfectly captures the magical atmosphere of this city, where traditional craftsmanship and modern lifestyle meet.

The fragrance opens with a hint of saffron that evokes memories of oriental markets, while violet and oud lend a mysterious depth. A sweet raspberry note unfolds in the heart, which is enveloped by warm incense and reminds me of the scent of old churches from my childhood.

It's a versatile fragrance that cuts a fine figure both at a romantic dinner and on a stroll through Zurich's old town. The combination of leather, raspberries and spices tells stories and evokes memories. It is one of my favorite leather fragrances, as it is less intrusive compared to "London" and therefore offers a wider range of wearing options.

The quality of the fragrance is excellent and the bottles are elegantly designed, even if they don't quite match the opulence of Widian bottles. I am excited to see what creations Kinetic will present in the future, because so far they have completely won me over.

Conclusion:

"Sillage" is a masterpiece of niche perfumery that carries the soul of Barcelona within it. A must for anyone looking for a versatile leather fragrance that tells stories and evokes memories. Finde belongs in every leather collection:)

Anyone who has ever been to the Alps and spent a lot of time there in his childhood knows this scent...

The visit in an alp hut, the goats which one strokes and the cows which devoutly "mooen" ...

In the stable you can see the animals eating and think of former dinosaurs which are still alive after such a long time:)

The moment where you go on a trip with grandma and the rest of the family and turn all the great and less great smells in your nose into a spicy potpourri... that's what this fragrance is for me...

First the herbs come into the nose and depending on which skin one smells this smell comes a "stable chord" to the carrying which plays quite playfully with the woody notes.

And in between through again and again the lily which provides for a flowery note.

A fragrance for alpine lovers and those who would like to be there... :)

It becomes more and more beautiful with time and the wood chords and the flowery/spicy notes remain with me for about 8 hours..

It was one day in my perfume shop in Zurich...

It wasn't the most beautiful day (weather-wise) but thanks to a perfume it became super:)

I had put the focus on Amyris and Baccarat Rouge 540 but then the seller offered me a fragrance and I was blown away after the first sniff...

I haven't smelled such a beautiful vanilla/amber note for a long time:) spicy and I had to smell my arm all day long. Thanks to the different resins, which come sweetly, it lasts super long on the skin and smells for me really like a beautiful summer night in Marrakesh / Paris... A sexy perfume which lasts super long and with which one is ready for a wild night:)

The warmer the body the more you smell the spicy tonka bean ... dreamlike:) this fragrance comes into my collection :) try it out and let yourself be enchanted:)

So funny ... every time I read it's supposed to be a fragrance twinning from Elysium, I have to smile.

The opening is different than the Elysium no matter which version of it.

Fruity, spicy, leathery, somewhat animalistic by the musk... actually an exciting station wagon.
Then with the base notes it looks similar... but must say it judges less chlorous than the Elysium.
