The parfum house description:
On a frosty winter afternoon, a fiery gentleman finishes his toilette by dabbing on a preparation of Neroli and Violet. He draws down his cuffs, dons a heavy fur and strides out in polished leather boots. As he rides off on his sleigh, the woody scent of Fir fills the air. Beyond the snow-laden trees, on a clearing bathed in amber light, the fateful duel awaits.
The top notes: Neroli and Lavender - light, sweet, earthy and spicy
The heart: Violet Leaf - metallic, green, aqueus
The base: Balsam, Russian Leather - warm, sweet, mellow, warm, soothing
There are a few things that I would like to add to the description from Arquiste. First, upon looking up Russian Leather, which is different from other leathers, as they are the world over due to the process each country uses in the tanning process, Birch is used in the Russian process. This changes the whole thing. It is warm and mellow and to me, delightful! This fragrance is easy to wear in warm weather as I believe it would be in the dead of winter as well. For those of you unfamiliar, the scene described above is set in Russia. I would not leave anyone wondering where this scene is set due to the world wide viewing of this blog. This fragrance is long lasting. The floral notes are light and easy for those who cannot wear floral scents.
My honest review: Perfection in a bottle!!!!!!!! And the bottle is lovely! Thank you Arquiste.
