L’Heure Exquise Attar

Wonderful, however this is the second bortnikoff attar I've had where part of the vial was either already broken or broke immediately. This time, the applicator stick is loose and when it moves I can hear glass crunching sounds. They need to change their supplier for these attar vials, the quality is bullshit. Lovely perfume though, for sure. More thoughts on the scent: burnt camphor, which gets stronger and stronger, taking on a sort of medicinal smell. It's like a hospital pharmacy on fire. It's skirts around going too far in this direction, but never does.

The shades of evening begin to descend. You sit in a cafe in the city center and look at the Seine. The sun goes down and the colors of the day mix with the purple sky. The familiar outlines of objects are faded by pastel tones, your eyes rest, and your feelings become stronger. The waiter brings you a cup of cocoa and a dessert. Dusky air cools your face and you feel the richness of scents brighter than ever before: the beverage, the food and a bouquet of flowers nearby. It is L’heure Exquise. The fragrance starts with a soft mix of Cardamom and Citruses. In a moment you get into a whirlpool of spicy notes of Cocoa, Clove and Myrrh. The heart of the fragrance beats with floral notes of exotic Champaca and Jasmine. Indonesian and Vietnamese Oud, Tolu Balsam and delicate White Amber are warming the beautiful base of the fragrance.
