One of the most artistically compelling creations in my collection is Raw Gold. Few fragrances truly challenge me, yet this one did deeply. At first encounter, it radiated such a vivid whiskey accord that I could hardly wear it. Whiskey had once been my favored drink, tied to memories I no longer wished to revisit, and the scent stirred those echoes too vividly. So I set the bottle aside, allowing it to rest in quiet darkness.

Half a year later, while introducing the fragrance to a friend, something remarkable had occurred, as if the perfume had matured in silence, rewriting itself. Suddenly it revealed a beauty I had never seen: mesmerizing, magnetic, and utterly addictive. Dense, dark leather - thick as lacquer and textured like old resin - forms its backbone, while Orris lends a touch of rough, almost dusty powder. Vanilla drapes over the bold, borderline feral leather, softening its edges and infusing the structure with a gentle, glowing sweetness. The composition feels both airy and weighty at once, like a heavy velvet curtain lifted by a passing breeze. And above this shifting tapestry, a faint wisp of smoky whiskey still lingers: now transformed, elegant, and evocative. It carries the peaty whisper of Lagavulin, a ghost of fire and smoke that enriches rather than overwhelms.

Raw Gold is a fragrance that unfurls best under a moody sky, in the kind of dim, rain-washed atmosphere where everything feels a touch more cinematic, a touch more poetic. Here, its majesty reveals itself fully. (We've had this kind of weather in southern Finland for weeks now, so I'm taking advantage of it and admiring scents that don't suit the hot and bright air.)

Oh my, I haven't worn this for months and I'm amazed every time I do. I know I'm in the minority again as a woman who loves such scents.

The opening is mind-blowing, incredibly beautiful and at the same time mystical. The scent is like a dark thick sticky veil, the very resinous texture is laced with delicate animalic aromas. Hyraceum, Cumin, Beeswax and Castoreum are noticeable, but they are utterly gentle and perfectly soft. I don't think they are challenging at any point and in no way dirty, although it's worth remembering that I haven't encountered any animalic aromas, which would be too much for me. Often, due to wearability, I have to wonder how other people experience such scents.

In addition to the other animalic notes, the musk is also much cleaner than, for example, in Mongolian Mriga . It is not clearly animalic, but remains delicate and sensual all the time. The heavy smokiness of the beginning quickly dissipates and makes room for the other notes as the scent becomes sweeter. The beeswax seems to melt and allows the spicy aroma of cinnamon to shine through. The subtle smokiness remains and adds an enigmatic touch to the perfectly blended concoction. One of my favorite notes, Labdanum, makes everything blend into the skin's own scent seamlessly and imperceptibly.

Similar to Francesca Bianchi's fragrances, for the inexperienced, many of Prin Lomros's fragrances may resemble each other. They use completely natural ingredients (Francesca Bianchi is cruelty-free though) and therefore the general style of the fragrances is of course very similar, and certain notes are similar to each other. The differences mainly come only from the ratios of the ingredients used. I would say that Onthamara's special feature is smokiness and if you don't like that, then this fragrance is completely impossible to wear. The smokiness also makes this challenging in terms of wearability, as the aroma can easily be as off-putting to people around you as the edgy animalic notes.

Onthamara definitely reminds me of a campfire, around which I have sat for hours, the smoke from the campfire clinging to my hair and clothes. The next time I put on the same outerwear, the smoke is still there, as beautiful memories.

This is my experience with Onthamara, after wearing it numerous times.

I have worn Opulentia Oud a lot to gather my thoughts about it and to express its scent and character as realistically as possible.

The hardest thing about the scent was first the clear association with Oud for Greatness Eau de Parfum and I don't like that scent at all. It's like a puzzle where the pieces have been forced together, it's like a brazen metallic breeze in your face. If you've tried it, imagine a scent where the same aromas have been put together as beautifully, seamlessly and with finishing touches as possible. Maybe that's how you can imagine this scent.

Like Oud for Greatness Eau de Parfum , Opulentia Oud is also not an Oud scent. It is above all a slightly resinous Saffron scent with an Amber base. The scent opens with an irresistible raspberry, as if the main notes of the scent had been poured with diluted raspberry juice. If I had to decide, this aroma should have been able to last until the end. Not everyone will agree, but I love raspberry in any fragrance where it is done well.

From the beginning, Opulentia Oud is a seamless union of Saffron, a very delicate bouquet of flowers, and an oriental base. The flowers are by no means the main character, but they bring an extremely refined character to the fragrance and flawlessly bring the other notes together. This important aspect is missing from Oud for Greatness Eau de Parfum , leaving it too strong, sharp and unfinished.

As I already mentioned, this is not an Oud fragrance, but the most important notes in the base are first of all Labdanum, which brings a seductive sensual nuance. It does not bring a leathery aroma here. Cyprioil and Patchouli complement the earthy character of Saffron, while the Oud accord complements the amber note and makes the fragrance beautifully resinous. This scent stays warm and not cold metallic like Oud for greatness.

I have completely left this fragrance category out of my collection because I haven't found a composition that I like. Opulentia Oud is made so charming and elegant while still remaining completely unisex that this fragrance is a must-have, at least for me. The fragrance is perfect for business meetings, regardless of gender. It is suitable for formal occasions when combined with a suit. It is suitable for use all year round. The longevity and sillage are excellent.

I wrote reviews of Zenobia , Ange Noir XXI and Xanat a while ago, but Empyrean , Opulentia Oud and Demigod XXI were left waiting. Somehow these three fragrances didn't speak to me and it's harder to talk about them.

Empyrean is a regular, very pretty rose fragrance, but there are many similar ones. Delina Eau de Parfum is the closest to this style, but I like this one much more. Delina feels somehow synthetic and sharp because of its base.

Empyrean opens with a fruity aroma, which doesn't clearly smell like Strawberry, but that note is one of the hardest to make realistic. The rose scent is delicate and ethereal, tempered with clean white musk. The rose petals are light pink. Peony is more pleasant than in Delina Eau de Parfum , where it is quite strong. Empyrean is made more elegant in every way. I would describe the scent as fresh rather than sweet. Vanilla in the base doesn't make the scent a "rose-vanilla scent", but rather maintains the pure clinical rose aroma from start to finish. The fruity twist doesn't last first much longer than the beginning.

Empyrean is a very easy scent, but at the same time impersonal. Everyone knows that I collect a lot of rose scents in my collection, but I've never felt like I need Delina, and I don't feel like I need this one either. I definitely like delicate and sophisticated rose scents, including Dom Rosa , where the champagne and fruity pear are a particularly beautiful addition, and Villa Primerose , where there is also Pear, and leather makes a unique addition to it.

Empyrean is not a bad scent, not at all. It deepens and improves towards the end and the base is well done. I don't really detect the spiciness of Carnation in the scent, but Vanilla makes the scent somewhat thicker and fuller instead of the gauze-like texture at the beginning, which is a good thing. The fruitiness also returns towards the end, but it still doesn't distinguish itself as Strawberry. The scent maintains its freshness. The blend is smooth and polished, as are all other scents from this house.

If you are buying a gift for someone and you know they like rose scents, I think this scent would be appreciated. It is incredibly versatile and the presentation is outstanding. These bottles are among the most beautiful I know.

About my rating: technically Empyrean is great , I would say 9. If I'm thinking the originality, it drops into 7. So I rate it between them. Longevity and sillage are excellent.

It's hard to find a scent from Prin Lomros that I don't like, but this is definitely one of my favorites.

The natural musk in this scent is intoxicating. It captures the senses right from the opening, it's deep but soft animalic, it's dirty and yet so gentle at the same time. Its enigmatic character changes from a spicy almost chocolatey combination of musk and oud to a subtle resinous green and earthy aroma from nature. Every time I've worn this, I can't stop sniffing my skin. Musk in its various forms is my soft spot and when it has succeeded in imitating natural musk well or when it really is natural, like here, I'm like in a trance.

The flowers in this scent are not distinguishable at all. The spices cannot be distinguished separately either. The greenery is not sharp in any kind of way. The cumin adds a slightly sweaty aroma, but it just enhances the scent, it's utterly sophisticated. No, I don't like the smell of sweat, but "sweaty," as the perfume industry describes the animalistic nuances of Cumin and Caraway, is irresistible. All the notes are perfectly blended and wrapped in a sometimes even sweet musky veil. The aroma is seductive, sensual and sexy. The scent maintains its incredible softness from start to finish and I don't find this to be overpowering or even difficult to wear.

Sprayed sparingly, it also doesn't project so much that it would bother others but if you spray it a lot it can be challenging for other people. The scent lasts all day long and it is unisex, but I think I'm in the minority, as women generally don't like to wear these kinds of scents. I think Musk is a scent that is equally attractive regardless of gender.

Due to the genuine deer musk, this is unfortunately limited to 150 bottles.
