Fragrance Quick Story
How can run khus do this. On its own it is so dark and earthy, but used against these heavy naturals my goodness everything just floats in a sillage of bliss. Ready to enter bliss. I spray it on so careful to touch as much skin as possible. I want to be bathed in this sillage, I want to be in a bubble, I want to carry it all around. This is a #daychanger.
This perfume is one you can pick notes out of and can’t at the same time. There is a gourmand feel with wild earth hanging. This is Al fresco in the summer evening. I long for these days in the Pacific Northwest. This escape I can now get a piece of in a wearing of L’Heure.
How to choose from the Bortnikoff line? I have no problem admitting I really wanted something with one of those super cool Oud names from the house Mysterious (My sherlock holmes marathon companion), Maximus (a gladiator fragrance finally), Monarch (perhaps a downton Abbey sidekick). But this just struck me. To me it is the house’s best work thus far and an example of what raw natural materials can be.
I highly recommend getting samples and applying on one arm these against modern designers to really see the difference of these powerful ingredients on skin. I just write with words the true power is to smell for yourself.
Fragrance in my opinion compared to Perfumes Notes
It's just a.special accord from Dmitry Bortnikoff. A bubble gum scent comes over the top of it, I have smelled this in other Bortnikoff’s. I swear I smell honeysuckle though not listed but there is a great floral bouquet supported by the champaca. The dark cacao hits but a bouquet sweetens it. In the royal way I often talk about. There it is again Royal. Chocolate Oud is this my favorite combo. Don’t want to talk about it to much or every house under the sun will make a chocolate oud combo. This I would put in the Gourmand Floral category. My number one compliment or couldn't explain but he's said it's pulling him in and he couldn't help himself. "What is that". His words not mine.
In the heart I clearly get a smooth cedar note backed with the camphor adding some burnt cedar vibes to the fume.
Sweet, sweaty, pretty floral, burnt woods all make appearances in this thing. A lot of vibes happening on the wearing and it attracts people to it for this reason.
This dries out with a sweet clean one to two foot sillage and an animalic dirty vibe when smelled close to the skin, if you’re a hugger like me people will get both effects. For me its perfect I like having a transformer as a perfume, unfortunately a lot of people strangely enough have no clue what to do with animalic scents, especially if they don’t have pets.
Overall this is Chocolate on the skin and heaven in the scent bubble.
