Ajmal Lahadhaat: A lollipop with a scoop of whipped cream - It reminded me of something, something familiar. I didn't figure it out. And then. Could it be Carner? Not one particular perfume, rather something in common, their slow-flowing enjoyment atmosphere. And the creamy tone in Palo Santo and Tardes. Cream is a wonderful thing in perfumes. It has the ability to return time and lull idyllic safety around a bowl of mashed baby, unreliable by the slightest echo of the outside world. Sophisticated - But Lahadhaat takes a while to get that far. Freshly after spraying, it resembles more boldly J´Ose Eisenberg, where the prickly lavender defies the sweet shallowness of the cake impressions. In Lahadhaat, lavender quickly turns into bergamot, but it is settled at the same wavelength. It is defiantly penetrating and used only in such a quantity that it does not break the sweet composition, just gives it the power. From the very beginning it is obvious that this will be an extraordinary fragrance. At this stage, it rotates massively, as if a whirlwind came, picking up bergamot and spices, sweet pepper and sweet cardamom, and mixing them in the air until it stings in his face. When it settles, the spice sweetness gets an interesting character. As if the vortex had gathered dust from crushed dried roses. The scent calms down and adopts its typical expression of two streams that wrap around each other and slowly move together without merging. The more massive of them is wood, but somewhat turned into almost cocoa dough, if not, rather than cocoa, it is a dark, deeply aromatic dust of wood, roots and spices. There is a second stream wrapping around, a lot more subtle, but expressively stronger, it is the already mentioned delicacy cream-labdanum, which gives the aroma character. Outside remains a rose, very unusually used, so it does not show clearly. It is not only dried in spices, it mysteriously appears in wood and cream, not as a distinct flower, but by making the wood vaguely beautiful and the cream pink. It's not a typical Arab - For two reasons. You will notice the first one right away. It is not the type of fragrance that emanates from the heat of the Arabian marketplace abounding with a variety of impressions. Lahadhaat has a calmer and clearer European gourmet tuning. The second reason is an unusual way of using oud, which is very reminiscent of Kurkdjian's Oud Satin Mood melted into a captivatingly perfect wax with pepper. Lahadhaat is definitely a fragrance that deserves attention. It has excellent stamina and hangs in the air like a lure with its mysterious attraction. (9.7.2017 - Dzona - Breakfast in Perfumery)
