Business Scent No. 1
Hesperidic in the beginning, flowery in the heart, spicy, vetiver woody and earthy in the base. Perfumes with these fragrances are recommended for business appointments where women must be confident and convincing. It radiates self-confidence and strong sovereignty. So a chypre is exactly the right choice. Because this is how it is built and characterized.
31, Rue Cambon is on Luca Turin's Top Ten list of Chypre fragrances of fragrant perfumes in 1st place.
I only know 5 of his Chypre list, but of those Rue Cambon is undoubtedly the best. The most elegant, and also the most modern of them. The perfect scent for the job. Not necessarily for the normal everyday office life in jeans, but for all difficult or important appointments where you have to leave a positive and convincing impression. And personal strength conveys. It is present, but not intrusive, because it is made very high quality. And compared to Aromatics Elixir or Mitsouko it is modern, but not New Age. There is still genuine, high-quality French perfume art behind it.
Paris on the edge of the abyss, which I smell today at 80% of the mainstream scents of commercial trade,
But not at 31, Rue Cambon.
The EdP is the refinement of the EdT. Citric in the beginning with a very slightly spicy pepper note. I don't find the flowery heart too feminine, but it is dry and dusty through the iris, and more powdery than the EdT. Earthy through the patchouli and vetiver.
I have worn the scent many times before, last week I thought that for the first time after a long day I had noticed a light cinnamon note. Or am I spinning now?
That could have been the Labdanum. It was beautiful anyway.
On this day, I was brought back to the awareness that fragrances are on the one hand very adaptable, but at the same time very individual. Do what they want and are always good for surprises.
I think it's very nice that this chypre doesn't have any fruit sweeteners. That Oliver Polge replaced the oakmoss, especially the artificial one, with vetiver was certainly not a mistake, but the best thing he could do.
