Balos

This is fun. There’s something endlessly fascinating about it. At first, it opens like nail polish remover - for 5 seconds - and then it settles into this really mysteriously sweet/complex/fresh scent. Admittedly, I really struggle to describe this. I can’t say it smells like anything I’ve smelled in the past - and it doesn’t really remind me of anything outside of fragrance. To me, that’s a good thing! Very unique - and likely more masculine, though I’m sure there’s plenty of women who would like it. It’s complex and stays interesting throughout the duration. A keeper in my book!

Beautiful salty marine with a sweet hint of grape juice.

A Legend tells that Minos, King of Crete, prayed to the God Poseidon to gift him a bull as a symbol of the Gods' benevolence towards him, promising to sacrifice it to the God. When Minos saw this stunning white bull, he decided not to give it as a sacrifice. Poseidon, angry by the broken promise, transformed the bull into a ferocious creature and made Pasiphae, the king's wife, fall madly in love with the beast to the point of giving birth to a creature with a half-man and half-bull appearance: the Minotaur. Balos, a splendid lagoon on this island, with very fine sand with pink shades and a crystalline sea that bathes it, inspires this fragrance. A spicy, sparkling opening, like the wonder of seeing such beauty, leaves space to softer, flowery and fruity notes, which lie on very delicate marine hints. An explosion of well-being, enjoying this splendid landscape. Well, for me this is a summer sea, fresh, delicate and elegant, I really liked it. “The minotaur” painted by Watts.
