Havana feeling
How the hell does the cola get into that scent?
Actually, the liquid in the tube should be dark brown and sticky, instead of so harmlessly clear.
Any serious scent worshipper should stop reading now, because this is going to be a paean to a composition that is both crazy and so sophisticated!
"Cuba Libre" to spray: I don't believe it!
Did but Yatagan once again knew exactly what he was doing when he put this sampler in my fragrance letter.
So I grinned rapturously from ear to ear after the initial astonishment had subsided.
And I'm grinning again!
It's no secret that I have a penchant for long drinks, even under the stars, be it on hotel terraces or bars "with outdoor areas", as it is now called.
Actually, I prefer the gin-heavy drinks, which can also be nicely flavored and colored with appropriate syrup: of course with umbrella and drinking bowl!
But for "Parfums de Havane - Severo" by Jacques Zolty I like to make an exception.
The classic "Cuba Libre" recipe is found in the fragrance opening:
Coke, sweet and sticky, fresh lime juice and a good helping of dark-honey rum!
Refined continues:
Davana, here not only a slight dried plum, but also a subtle rum note spreading, fits of course excellent to this prelude.
A pinch of pepper gives additional fire and the tart-bitter birch nuance tames a bit the sweetness created by cola.
Feels "Severo" still sticks slightly; or was the test sip already too much?
What would be a tropical night without the warm sensuality that runs through it crackling?
Once again, sluggish creamy vanilla and white musk, interspersed with Amber's resinous-spicy radiance, ensure this.
This entertaining fragrance cocktail does not need more; it speaks for itself!
Thus, vivid images of warm nights, beautiful women, smart men (all of whom would love to see themselves as James Bond) and a way of life known only to the South or the tropics are created by this fragrance creation.
"Parfums de Havane - Severo" delivers this short trip to Havana right away: lively, high-spirited, not averse to "a little flirtation" and guaranteed without a heavy head the next morning!
In one of these summer night parties, this fragrance belongs; here he can develop and live out his very special charm.
Because here it shows once again that even the fragrance world does not always have to be serious; a little wink may already be there.
And I raise my glass!
