Grenache
Fragrance notes
Character
Red wine and saffron collide with a heap of berries in the opening, creating a thick, jammy fruitiness that feels almost syrupy on the skin. Mango and blood orange add a tropical brightness that cuts through the heavier plum and red currant, preventing the start from becoming a flat sugar wall. Praline sits on top of it all, lending a candy-like crunch to the juicy accord that immediately signals a gourmand leaning.
Rose and jasmine float through the heart, but they are dusted with a metallic edge that keeps the florals from feeling entirely soft or traditional. Chocolate and amber take over the foundation, mixing with patchouli and benzoin to create a resinous, dark warmth that suits a dimly lit room where the air is cool outside the window. Vanilla and musk smooth the sharper spices into a powdery finish, while sandalwood provides a dry anchor for the sweet accords. The overall impression is a dessert meant for a heavy wool coat and a quiet street after sunset. Musk.
