Lalique Encre Noire a l'Extreme Eau de Parfum Natural Spray

Product Information

Orris and patchouli (which is admittedly a difficult note for me) almost certainly contribute as well to this dirtiness, but it's the sweet top notes that really mess with your mind. After dry-down, the bergamot and vetiver are equally present because the grassy vetiver opening softens. Dries down quickly to bring out the incense, subtle vetiver and prominent powder-flower Orris notes. At first it smelt like an Indian restaurant but after third wearing my nose matured and now it’s a love for me! It's a tiny bit better because of that spicy kick which makes it less one dimensional and linear than the original, but it's not worlds apart.

While the Encre Noir is a work of art, orginally designed for immortal users with impeccable style, this is the commoners version of the same. I spray it on my wrist at night whilst watching Cadfael and enjoy sniffing it off my wrist for 30 minutes before it disappears.There is something here that I can only compare to the finding balsamic vinegar in your creme brulee. Imagine being relieved when night falls because you can take off your mask and finally be your true self. It lasts quite a bit, doesnt project a lot but nevertheless for the cost as a daily fragrance you get an amazing scent.

My first taste of this was subverted by a Vetiver Oil perfume that had clung to my shirt from the day before. com perfumes magazine - All Rights Reserved - do not copy anything without prior written permission. With its aldehydes and floral notes and a touch of sweetness, Sycomore (EDT) smells smoother and more complex, luxurious and refined than ENALE, and also more unisex to my nose. I've also discovered that layering with Creed Aventus (or one of the many clones) takes things to another level.Make no mistake, this is not a mass-appealing scent by any stretch of the imagination, however it's one that I like to rock every now and then, definitely best worn in the fall, preferably on a rainy day or a rainy night. Smells a lot like olibanum (frankincense) that hasn't been burned, of course along with vetiver and incense that remain from the opening. After an hour or so however, the cozy elements come to the front, rounding out its profile to a sublime balance of freshness, earthiness, woodiness, and subtle spice. While we strive to provide accurate and helpful information, we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy or reliability of the AI-generated pros and cons. Being bright and somewhat citric (lemony), the resin here also imparts what I experience as a slight metallic characteristic.

Never, I thought at first, will I become a friend of "black ink": too crass, too earthy, too one-dimensional, too unsuitable for everyday use, so my fears.You will feel as though a cool, grey mist were lingering about your surroundings obscuring any light or ability to see far. There is just enough sweetness here to stop the darkness from being overwhelming, and just enough cypress and incense to make the darkness comforting. But of course: I let myself be blinded a bit by comments, the direction "musty forest", "smoky fog" or "darkest night". Insense and iris join before the base note completes the Eau de Parfum Spray Encre Noire à l'Extrême with benzoin, patchouli and sandalwood.

In sum, I love ENALE both for the ways in which it is similar to Sycomore (EDT) and for the ways in which it differs. My only regret is that didn’t have this have one sooner to wear while mourning lost loves as I wonder the damp evening streets alone after an early autumn snow.

Initially I thought A L’Extreme was too much, overwhelming in its dry woodiness and incense but after a minute or two the subtle notes of citrus and greens break through ever so slightly. A trio composed of bergamot, cypress and elemi opens the bouquet as spicy and fresh before a masculine accord of vetiver asserts itself. Maybe I am just unconsciously associating this with rotting sheds and dank planks in antique sailing boats, but I think even those could be made to smell nostalgic and "nice". after an hour or so, a stinky furry mammal comes out to play and secretes all over this beautiful piece of wood.
