Vetiver de Noir

Congratulations to perfumer Sanderson Santana for his talent, I see Sapientiae among the best in perfumery. The quality of the ingredients, Performance and creativity in elaboration of fragrances are amazing. Vetiver de Noir is a composition that escapes the conventional, it has a gothic style that I imagine will please those who like this kind of fragrance. It resembles something between L'air du désert marocain and Encre Noire, but with the great advantage of being more versatile than them (avoiding using only in strong heat). This versatility is wonderful because although it behaves better in the cold, it still allows me to use a dense, complex and unconventional perfume on normal days without displeasing anyone around me. I like to use it to work and study, it gives me comfort and helps me focus on what I propose to do. I was surprised by the sophistication and quality of fragrance, especially after drying on the skin, a great find.

This one is over 90% similar to l’Air du Désert Marocain and a tiny bit less “disturbing” if I really try to pinpoint a difference. I have and love both. I say disturbing because I have offended mainstream noses around me with lddm but I feel somewhat safer with Vetiver de Noir but anyway both are very similar and frankly I’ll be fine being able to wear VdN when my bottle of lddm is over since it’s very expensive.

Wish I could find samples in the US :(
