The idea of Berlin in 2000
This perfume is a daring and cool experiment to recreate the Berlin as it was in the year 2000. It does not exist any more (since then the city became much more orderly and clean), but the perfume captures the spirit.
It is a composition consisting of 3 main accords - conrete, metal and green. The minerals that I call concrete and the mellow metal hold a scaffolding upon which climb a million types of everchaning green plants of all shapes and sizes.
The concrete ruins blocks with sticking out metal rods remain, and the green notes dance around them and change all the time - fresh, young, wet, mouldy, spicy, freshly cut, peppery and so on.
An interesting perfumery experiment.
new & modern take on aquatic genre
It's a very interesting fragrance. Main genre - aquatic. It seems there is little left to say in this category - the aquatic theme has been interpreted in every possible way. And yet Parfumerie Particuliere somehow managed to find a new, modern and pleasant take on it.
So we have a top made of breezy ocean air - no surprises here. Lot's of salty wind, freshness etc.
What's interesting and unique about this fragrance is it's base. It is lush, aromatic, musky-woody-rubbery-vetivery and reminds me of a completely differernt kind of perfume - an oriental scent that is designed to ooze luxury.
The interplay and even a bit of tension between these two parts is in fact very pleasant, despite sounding a bit weird. I even imagine I smell cigarette ashes in there somewhere. An original creation, and a nice one!
