Soleil de Jeddah by Stephane Humbert Lucas

Imagen
An unusual and unique composition Few places on the planet have a closer relationship to the sun than the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah, the Bride of the Red Sea, gateway to Mecca and Medina. To honor a great city that is both religious epicenter and vacation destination, cultural capital and center of commerce, Stéphane Humbert Lucas chose to focus the one element equally present and central to all endeavors, and contained within the brilliant gold-metallic bottle is a sun-drenched, rapturously bright citrus-floral that gradually evolves to reveal hidden depths of Russian leather, Madagascar vanilla, buttery iris, and earthy amber. Like the multi-faceted city of Jeddah itself, the reasons for going and the reasons for staying may be entirely different. The initial brightness of Soleil de Jeddah is a thing of unapologetic beauty: tart, juicy lemon, pillow-soft Roman chamomile, and an exquisite osmanthus so mouthwateringly jammy that we've variously detected peach, apricot, lychee...

Kashnoir by Laboratorio Olfattivo

Imagen
Kashnoir is a softly lethal drug, that obscures reason and stuns the senses If you know anything about me you may know that I adore Cecile Zarokian creations. Narcotics flowers, psychotropic herbs and haunted spices are the main ingredients of Kashnoir. More than a fragrance, Kashnoir is a softly lethal drug, that obscures reason and stuns the senses. Features notes of Lemon, Bergamot, Lavender, Coriander, Rose, Orange blossom Absolute, Patchouli, Benzoin, Heliotrope, Vanilla. Very citric and quite floral opening loaded with lavender, a light rose and orange blossom. During the drydown phase, the initial citrus notes blend perfectly with benzoin and vanilla. Possibly it's the heliotrope which in this phase provides a narcotic floral sensation very dusty and flattened which I love. It's not the usual citrus fragrance, in fact I wouldn't call it a citrus scent. Also a delicious patchouli is very present. It is balsamic, floral and quite sweet. The longevity is very good ...
