Kilian Hennessy's new line, L'Oeuvre Noire, My first Impressions
I just returned from Aedes with a bag of samples from Kilian by Kilian Hennessey, heir to the Hennessy cognac family fortune - lucky him.
Liaisons Dangereuses broke on the way home, so I decided to rescue what I could of it and put it on my arm. Plum, Geranium, Cinnamon, Sandalwood and Musk. The sillage is high. Extremely good quality ingredients, but a bit too fruity for my tastes. It does have a hint of cognac going on. It might appeal to SMW lovers.
Tomorrow I try, A Taste of Heaven.

Next comes, A Taste of Heaven. Starts w/rose and orange joined by amber and vanilla. It reminds me of Eau Noir, less opaque, and it has a bit of a Barber Shop thing going on. A nice big dose of oakmoss hangs around in the drydown. An interesting take on a Chypre. Not as much sillage as Liaisons Dangereuses, but much more wearable. Again, high quality and a touch of booze up front.
