The Beautiful Spirit
Luca Turin gave the fragrance four stars in his 2018 'Best Of' list, and I just had to try it. Since there was no way to test it, I just hit it blind. The notes of frankincense, leather, beaver's horny, oud, everything in it that I love, was worth the small risk. Do you think I'd personally put a star on top of it? Let's see...
Immediately after spraying on, fruity incense rises up my nose. I would not have expected this fruity note. It must be the combination of mandarin orange and davana. The whole thing rather sweetish than freshly breathed, and for a second you could think of sniffing a black cherry juice. But then you're quickly brought back into the perfume world, because a sexy animal note appears. Must be the leather paired with the beaver, awesome! Now I start to like it, and this incense, ohhhh man is the good one. Due to the oud the scent slowly becomes darker and spicy, even if it is more the western-influenced variety. Nothing with cow barn or something. In its base note Aesthete reminds me very much of M7 from YSL, because it also keeps this slightly beguiling sweetness
I like the aesthete, although he does his own thing. In the course of time he behaves a little bit different than what you are used to, because most of it happens in the first minutes and after that he hardly changes at all. What remains is a spicy, (votive) smoky and slightly fruity leather scent.
It's not quite enough for the fifth star, but I'll gladly give him 8.5 perfume points.
On my skin it has a decent durability of 8-10 hours. Sillage I would say, rather discreet, it is not a fragrance that fills a room, you could even wear it in the office without your colleagues falling off their stools.
Aesthete has rather masculine features, but due to the slightly fruity sweetness, definitely feminine attributes.
Greetings to all, Patrick ;-)
