these are two that pluck the heartstrings: descriptions from Luckyscent, Has anyone sniffed these yet?
Une Rose Vermeille
by Tauer Perfumes
A divinely saucy rose scent that flounces and shimmies and flirts its way into your heart and never lets you go. The opening is bright and juicy citrus with a hint of lavender and then the vermillion rose unfurls its luscious petals. As you would expect from Andy Tauer, the rose is exceptionally vivid and true deep and velvety and spicy, with a peppery bite that acts as the perfect foil to a delicious, intensely concentrated essence of raspberry. This is a raspberry that you would pick in a dream the most perfect berry of the summer - so bright and pure and sweet that you would cry if you woke up before tasting another. The sparkling rose and raspberry jam is folded into a creamy base of vanilla, tonka bean and smooth sandalwood, taking us right to the brink of gourmand, but not quite crossing over. There is definitely an edible quality to Une Rose Vermeille it conjures up marzipan and meringue and Bavarian cream but it isnt pure dessert due to the startling freshness of the rose and the deep purr of the sandalwood. This rose is not just charming and delectable and adorably feminine, but a bit naughty, as well. Stunning.
Une Rose Vermeille Notes
lemon, bergamot, lavender, rose, raspberry, violet, vanilla, sandalwood, tonka bean, ambergris
Bas de soie
by Serge Lutens
With Bas de Soie (aka Silk Stockings) following up on Serge Noire, Filles en Aiguilles and Fourreau Noir in his new vein of sartorially-named fragrances, Serge Lutens has ventured out of black and into the blue by splicing hyacinth and iris. Is this hyaris or iricinth? The two notes are so intimately blended in this shimmering scent that they cant be teased apart. Those who wondered where the Lutens-Sheldrake tandem would go after their LEau Serge Lutens shocker have their answer. And its not back to Marrakesh: Bas de soie is as quintessentially Parisian as the gardens of the Palais Royal. And though this green-tinged, stripped-down descendent of Chanel N°19 may smell as clean as the most expensive soap in the boudoir, its no anti-perfume either: it radiates classic, powdery coolness, with an oddly compelling salty-metallic tang in the drydown. After the rooty, moody Iris Silver Mist, this is a radically different and relentlessly chic take on iris. Now slip on those silk stockings and slay em.
Notes
Galbanum, hyacinth, spicy notes, iris, musk
