BLACK by Puredistance Master Perfumes

Imagen
A breathtakingly elegant, addictive, charming and evocative perfume that is truly memorable THE PERFUME "You are allowed to let your mind and senses fly and paint your own picture based on those lines, colors and textures" BLACK  is an experience in its own, a fragrance that is imposing, but refined and elegant, powerful but delicate, dark but bright, mysterious and sensual, a composition that I can define as a dangerous treat and an olfactory journey through different phases like a book, a movie or a piece of music can do, even a painting where the individual is always subject to its own interpretation and able to feel whatever that paint evokes in its own mind without judging which materials the artist used, which is the formation or references, the inspiration,etc., you are allowed to let your mind and senses fly and paint your own picture based on those lines, colors and textures. NOTES As a consequence of the concept of BLACK (that treasures the beauty of...

An example of elegance and sensuality with a seductive energy out of this world that reads on the skin as a caress that will rapidly charm your soul forever THE PERFUME "I have always admired the Puredistance concept. The concept of not follow trends always creating unique and timeless pieces" I started to read, get and collect information about Gold prior to its launchment by the end of last year and the interest and curiosity in try this fragrance was growing really fast on me since I have always admired the Puredistance concept. The concept of not follow trends always creating unique and timeless pieces that can perfectly be elements of transport that estimulates our senses even evoking different times and places in the sensorial trips that they induce.

WHITE by Puredistance Master Pefumes

Imagen
Another Antoine Lee super special piece that deserves to be worn in very special occasions   THE PERFUME AND THE PERFUMIST "Lie's talented hands and nose has a special sense for elegant, smooth, and evocative perfumes that you can close your eyes and portrait them in White, Black and Gold colors" The delicacy of this concoction is palatable, I find it perfectly unisex and actually I enjoy it wearing a lot, but I also portrait and imagine in my mind a bride wearing this super special piece in the most important day of her life, her wedding. It's a perfume that evokes innocence but confidence, serenity, cleanliness, mature attitude and why not confess it, I portrait that image because I was discussing it with my wife the first day that we get the luck to experience White and we came to the same conclusión with that thought. Actually seh told me, "If I knew White for the time that we get married, most likely I'd have wore it" instead of her ...

Ambre Nuit by Dior

Imagen
A delightful oriental scent  *Not my photo. Photo source: Internet Review based on a large sample obtained directly from Dior. Ambre Nuit is my favorite from the original La Collection Privée by Dior alongside Gris Montaigne (nowadays called Gris Dior). “Ambre Nuit orchestrates the meeting of two extremes. It is, to a certain extent, the olfactory expression of Beauty and the Beast. This perfume unites the somber, animal facet of amber with the delicate velvet effect of Turkish rose. It is, at the same time, a night wave of amber. Like when delicacy and strength dialogue, where opposites attract each other forming a powerful duo.” François Demachy, Perfumer-Creator Dior NOTES Amber, Rose. REVIEW Sparkling, crisp and fresh thin layer of bergamot wrapping the two clear protagonists of this truly sophisticated piece that will bewitch your soul with its deep and powdery grey amber and its oriental, luxurious, deep and velvety rose. Delicacy, refinement, q...

Le Parfum du 68 by Guerlain

Imagen
Welcome to the number 68 of Les Champs Elysees                                          Photo source: Internet. 1913, Guerlain moved his boutique to the Champs-Elysées, just a few hundred meters from his first factory. To celebrate the opening of his new boutique, Jacques Guerlain created Parfum des Champs-Elysées for his Parisian admirers. The frarance came in a magnificent turtle-shaped bottle in Baccarat crystal, a witty allusion to the exceedingly slow pace of construction. A century later, Guerlain continues to reinvent itself. The legendary address—68, avenue des Champs-Elysées—elegantly embodies French art de vivre. Artists and craftsmen of worldwide renown have redesigned this superb setting for a new century of beauty and passion, a new adventure for Guerlain. To celebrate th...

Musc Ravageur from Editions de Parfums by Frederic Malle

Imagen
  A piece of cult of the modern perfumery SAVAGE SEX APPEAL Musc Ravageur enhances the magnetic aspect of musk with amber, vanilla, patchouli and sandalwood, at the total exclusion of floral notes. Read More Having caused a scandal when the perfume first appeared in 2000, Musc Ravageur is now celebrated in all its sensuousness as the Sistine Chapel of the Amber Oriental tradition. An unapologetically sexy perfume. REVIEW A slightly animalic musk surrounded by a spicy veil and balmed in the most precious resins paired with an intoxicating fluffy warm vanilla base. The honeyed amber and the velvety haze of cinnamon alongside the cloves plays a major role on my skin as well but this definitely is a dictionary definition of a niche carnal, slightly animalic and yet creamy musk without musk as per the creator, Maurice Roucel states. A piece of cult of the modern perfumery. Un almizcle ligeramente animálico rodeado de un velo de espe...

Melt my Heart by Strangelove NY

Imagen
A unique and majestic perfume composed by Christophe Laudamiel PREFACE A gourmand lover’s dream, but really so much more than just a delicious smell, Melt My Heart is an oil-based fragrance that captures the dizzying sensation of falling in love. And if you imagine that to feel like falling slowly backwards into a featherbed filled with fluffy orris butter and dark chocolate, well, then your vision lines right up with that of Strangelove NYC. Creamy, soft, and utterly addictive, this scent combines the mouthfeel of powdered white chocolate and lipstick with the velvety bitterness of 85% cocoa. Real orris butter, costlier than most other perfumery materials and described by Chandler Burr as “liquid good taste”, has been used generously here to give the more edible elements spaciousness and lift, like a puff of silvery breath on the cold air. It is the “white” element that contrasts so effectively with the dulcet bitterness of the dark chocolate note. Real oud, ginger, and mandar...

Oud Bourbon by Byron Parfums

Imagen
Don't get misslead by the name A fresh and airy opening with a very prominent neroli note rapidly meets a heavy dose of saffron, jasmine and violet on my skin. A refined mild oud note super smooth, sandalwood and gazelle musk mixed with an spicy vanilla used in the same way as in Mula Mula conforms the base.
