07738

Just received my lucky 19 from 33. Looks like not many left over. For very remind the NOUN like the same foundation but definitely a different performance. NOUN is masculine and little rough 0.7738 is the more floral oily base. This floral but far from sweet or girly Wearing second day and will see how it works int he future

With 07738 (BELLO reversed) Antonio Gardoni gifts us with one more of his dense benzoin based creations. This time its a strange and lovely floral aromatic that bears his trademark signature all over it. There are so many ingredients in this juice that one loses count but the notes that stand out are florals like rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, rose, labdanum, neroli and lavender. Theres a variety of citruses in the mix too like bergamot, orange, lime, and mandarin. All this is grounded in an aromatic bed of vetiver, benzoin, mint, black pepper, fennel, woody notes and olibanum. The perfumer uses a no going back technique where he keeps adding ingredients till he achieves a certain smell. Thus this is a one batch limited edition of 33 numbered bottles and a few unnumbered ones. The perfume like most Bogue offerings has a moderate to strong projection and excellent sillage and tremendous longevity. It can be classified as a unisex perfume. In my opinion, far from his best work but still very interesting and sufficiently unique to take its proud place in my collection of full bottles. Enjoy!

07738 is another interesting limited-edition offering from Bogue, presumably exclusively via Luckyscent of Los Angeles, now wholly sold out on its website. Its rather lengthy note list creates, for me, a rather resinous yellow floral creation, consisting of a few floral players that have a balance of freshness, sharpness, and sweetness: ylang ylang, tuberose, and jasmine. The other main piece is a mix of resins, perhaps labdanum, most prominently, that foster a sort of creamy vibe in concert with the aforementioned florals. Lastly, some woods seem to complement the other items and bring it all together. Overall, it's not a terribly sweet or spicy mix, but rather a creamy floral with aspects of powder and freshness. The main attribute that needs mentioning is the strength of the juice, however. It's unusually strong for its extended of opening of a couple of hours, during which the sharpness and florality of the blend overshadow the creamy, resinous, and sweet qualities of it. With extrait concentration and a bottle cost of $245 for 50ml, though, I wouldn't expect much less than a strong fragrance, but even so, the stuff is very strong, so there's good value there. Overall, though, it's a bit too sharp for too long for my liking, and it misses the mark slightly while being interesting and complex. 6 out of 10

This is one heck of a breathtaking fragrance. The way Antonio made the combination of floral bouquet, citrus and resins work is nothing short of amazing. This seems to be a rework and better version of noun, where it's brighter and the amber BBQ aspect is toned down. Too bad it was a limited run and his best work is often the limited bottles.
