Etro
Shaal Nur
(1997)
Woody Oriental
------------------
Top Note : Lemon, Coriander, Bergamot, Grapefruit, Rosewood
Middle Note : Thyme, Tarragon, Rosemary, Karo Karoundé, Rose, Petitgrain
Base Note : Nutmeg, Amber, Labdanum, Patchouli, Vetiver, Cedar, Opopanax, Incense, Musc
------------------
Citrus-herbal with woody oriental notes of depth and character. Etro has done a very good job on this one. The base notes really work well together, and are responsible for giving this a slightly smoky, mysterious vibe. I think this could work as a daytime scent in cool weather, and as an elegant fragrance for evening dates, especially ones where one wishes to project an air of urbane savoir-faire and coax one's companion to explore an enticing invitation to get to know each other better. The heart note contains karo-karoundé, an "exotic and carnal flower" (osmoz.com) from Africa that figures in a few other scents and lends a real air of mystery, beauty, and sensuality. The incense, opopanax, cedar, patchouli, labdanum, and amber in the base also contribute to making this deliciously deep and rich. Too bad Etro is getting harder to find...

Creed Bois du Portugal. I got up with good intentions for the day, but now I feel under the weather. Perhaps a poor fragrance choice that I will have to modify.

I'm wearing Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille today with a few swipes of Parfums de Nicolai Vanilla Tonka on my hand after all the talk of L'Artisan's new Havana Vanille got me in a vanilla mood.

** and added some fabulous Spiritueuse Double Vanille for the evening to keep the vanilla heaven going.
