The Refinement of the Noble
Candied orange in sugar water? It starts off powerfully sweet before a rough, nutty (vetiver!) overtone quickly provides relief. For the abundant sweetness, the tonka bean mentioned on the manufacturer's side is probably the central responsibility. Only very slowly can a powdery carrot iris get a smell. Meanwhile I smile at a distant note of cola, I think there's some combination of tobacco and sweet smoke behind it that reminds me briefly of Malbrum's Bengal tiger before a strong load of cream finishes the picture. A fine cream: Not too sweet, well ventilated rather by wood than by iris, because the latter is known to be on a carotene-powdery trail. A trace of bitterness also remained in the melange, the kind of bitter sweetness that would have made me guess myrrh instead of frankincense - and that fits the cola idea from above.
But the star is the wood, so the name of the fragrance points in the right direction. The Schnick thereby: If it already succeeds in refining artificial wood by adding iris, this should work even more with natural wood. And indeed, the refinement of the noble delivers a respectable result.
In the late morning this good impression is unfortunately a little clouded by a light plastic note. Too bad, because the topic powder iris was probably a little over-twisted. It also seems to me that vanilla is in the game today and in natural fragrances it probably likes to get a touch like that - which in this case also makes it clear that the active fragrance process is over. And in fact, not much happens after noon. The additions to the (skin)-creamy-woody basic structure, mainly smoke and a certain bitterness of tobacco because of me, are at most accompanying symptoms.
Conclusion: Refinement of the noble or not - I only find the scent quite beautiful, but it doesn't tear me from my seat. Gradually I have the feeling that the brand overall is somewhat creamy-heavy.
I'd like to thank Bellemorte for the rehearsal.
