I looked up Sacrebleu for another post, and naturally that made me interested and I got myself a sample.
top: fresh green note, black currant, carnation
mid: raspberry, peach blossom, Indian jasmine, hyacinth, tuberose
base: amber, vanilla, tonka bean, cinnamin, clove, Yemenese incense
I said "Comments seem to say a well blended, peachy, spicy tuberose on a vanilla and incense base."
That is not what I experienced! And I'm so impressed! I've not experienced many (any?) carnation scents, but somehow I feel
I started at the top. This strikes me as a must have. It's fresh, airy, clean, but not soapy in the least. The clear carnation is softened
by the powdery warmth of vanilla and tonka bean. It seems simple, but it's got a bit of heady depth that must come from the jasmine
tuberose, but my nose still says carnation. Albeit, a more delightful version that I've ever come across. The dry down hangs on to
floral sense and the incense brings a little touch of darker mystery to a soft , slightly powdery vanilla.
People have been posting about perfect summer scents, and discoveries of the year--- and now I have a new one!
I'd love to hear who else likes this fragrance, and what they smell in it! And what they like about it, what they think about it...eh heh,
you get my enthusiastic drift, don't you? [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]
