MGO gems: here No. 11
MGO and I have not been a love story so far. I write that - as I just realized - every time in this context before I then want to say something positive and I notice how the normal collection rarely touches me, the numbered Attars for it all the more. I find the variety of these oils particularly admirable. If number 9 is still wonderfully floral, the number 11 attar here is dark, gloomy, dusty. He begins where Library Visit ends, to name a comparison fragrance from the label portfolio.
No. 11 begins immediately dusty but the oud also seems floral in its complexity. The rose geranium seems wondrously pleasing and I must say that so, better integrated I have perhaps also never smelled. This all-encompassing and rich spice dries up with the minutes; is now not only coated in a layer of dust but is also dry at the nucleus. This desert by night also encroaches on ingredients like vanilla. Sure, at the nucleus it is vanilla but parched and thus to be judged differently in terms of development. Paler, yet clearly present.
If I had to guess, so I would want to estimate the oud a little older because so I know Thai oud personally not. Maybe that's also because of the leather, which is here then rough like leather pants after a ride through inhospitable steppes, through the prairie. The pores covered by the dirt of the ride, everything a little dirty and more severe, so also No. 11.
works This combination triggers smoke nuances in the further course, triggers the smell of heated tar, really very exciting. The whole is enriched by patchouli with earthy notes. With time, the vanilla announces itself back, breaks free from the dusty chains and then unfolds something, which gives the fragrance a little more color. Fine thing.
MGO you have to look at perhaps differentiated. The Attars, which I was allowed to test so far, were always at least good. This one is quite different from the bulk, than perhaps the whole portfolio of the brand. Such a spicy dustiness, this is far more than Desert Wind or others from MGO can offer. I am slightly reminded of Quality of Flesh but significantly more balanced, milder. No. 11 is a wonderful little gem. I am already looking forward to testing more MGO.
