Lacrima

I love this scent for some reason. It starts off with a very powerful note of frankincense, it really feels as if you just stepped into a church and are walking towards the altar surrounded by thousand lit candles. Towards midlife, the scent goes into a very mature yet energetic vibe where the sweetness of elemi tones down the cypriol. I even get some cinnamon notes. Sillage: 9/10 Longevity: 9/10 Scent: 8/10 Cost: 7/10 Overall: 8.25/10 If you are into frankincense and mature scents this one is a definite buy.

It's a medicinal fragrance, kinda medicinal frankincense vibe. Invigorating for sure, but a bit too wild for me.

Smells like some kind of weird dill and sweet pickles. Absolutely awful.

I could wax poetic about Liquides Imaginaires for days. I think every single one of their scents are masterpieces. Even if one or two aren’t all that original, superiority in class is unarguable. Lacrima, I think, is original. Lacrima means tears. Tears are ozonic, salty. The elemi keeps it grounded in the heart, in the deeper emotions. I think that’s what feels a little “incense-y”, as noted by another reviewer. The wood base and castoreum, leather at the root, do something when combined with the ozone/salt and elemi. They combine in a way that makes this feel....how can I explain? If you are more aural, then I would say it radiates in slightly serrated peaks, sort of a fine sand on a long grain. If you were more visual I would say this is a soft, hazy gray, drifting towards ice. If you were a tactile person I would tell you that you might get a softly cool first impression, like an ocean breeze; but wait a while and you will meet the smoke-hardened heart of smooth wood and fuzzy moss (with a bit of splintery benzoin thrown in) of its interior. It is a truly unisex scent and it is a work of art. Tears, a universal human experience, are meant to be a release of any deeply felt emotion: passion, grief, joy, etc. They are a physical representation of a powerful experience; a memory leaving the body; a Sacred Salt. If Sacred Salt has a scent, this is it. It’s freakin good.

Regardless fragrance itself - people who work in liquides imaginaires are rather ignorants and neverminded... Fragrance trio : melancolia, lacrima, phanthasma are in production but hardly achievable. I can't find even samples. So I wrote directly to costumer services. The answer was : " Because containers thous 3 fragrances are very fragile we don't sell them by sending. If you want buy one you need to go directly to our scent bar in Paris. Thank you very mutch ( I got specially go from London to Paris to buy bottle of perfume or even smell it) I can afford it if I'm Rockefeller or Bill Gates only... I asked about sample info - No reply... Thous people p... ed me of so from now on I'm boykoting their fragrances....There is so many nice scents just skip liquides imaginaires onestly.
