Richard Lüscher Britos
10 years ago
Olfactoria recently reporting on the launch of Richard Lüscher Britos, Terroir Perfumes, a fellow fume head from Switzerland mentioning the brand, and some bn-discussion on whether or not geographic coordinates are a smart choices as perfume name, had sparked my interest.
So last weekend I finally managed to sample their fragrances and I have to say, they are rather terrific indeed and have excellent longevity for all-natural perfumes. I intended to primarily check out what Vero Kern and Andy Tauer did for this brand but upon sniffing all the juices on paper, I spontaneously opted for 04°N 74°W (Columbia) and 46°N 08°E (Alps) to sample on skin.
"04°N 74°W" (Columbia) is a powdery gardenia that has been fused with a subtle coffee note into a sophisticated gourmand I really enjoyed.
"46°N 08°E" (Alps) reminded me of fir forest, earthy and resinous, and forest honey. Very well done, imho, and I will re-sample this one for sure.
What I love about this brand, is, they let you sniff the main head, heart and base note separately before you get to smell the fragrance itself. That was as much fun as it was educational - to experience natural oak moss was a real treat! I will definitely be back and delve into the rest of their range.
