Blue Sapphire
Fragrance notes
Character
Blue Sapphire opens with a bright, almost medicinal citrus snap. Bergamot and lemon are sharpened by artemisia, that dusty herbal bitterness that keeps things from tipping into soda pop sweetness. The heart is where it gets interesting. Black currant adds a jammy, slightly tart fruitiness that plays against the piney dryness of cedar and a flicker of pink pepper. Then the leather and labdanum creep in underneath, soft and warm but never heavy. This is a fragrance that feels like a crisp linen shirt worn on a humid afternoon. It stays close, barely a whisper after an hour. That longevity of 3.14 and sillage of 2.86 are honest numbers. You will not leave a room trailing clouds. You will smell good for a couple of hours, and then you will need to reapply. That is fine for summer, where it shines. This is a daytime scent through and through, built for heat, for casual lunches, for the simple pleasure of feeling clean and slightly sophisticated. Who should wear it? Someone who wants a leather accord without the weight, who appreciates a bit of herbal complexity in the top notes. Who should skip it? Anyone expecting a beast mode performer or a dark, brooding leather bomb. This is a polite, cheerful scent that knows its place. It is not trying to reinvent the wheel, just roll smoothly along. A little artemisia goes a long way.
