A night in Seville
First of all I would like to thank LadyLuxifer and Caligari for the procurement of the samples. The fragrances of this brand should at least be tested. And now to the fragrance:

In fact, one could imagine that one is on one of the small streets of Sevilla. It is already late; the moon is shining; the air smells of spices with prominent nutmeg. This aroma mixes with the scent of the dark green leaves of the orange trees that adorn the streets.

Now a narrow alleyway comes and follows the "path" of the fragrance... the head notes are replaced by the tart heart. The tiny windows are decorated with flowerpots. Sometimes you can find geraniums and sometimes herbs used for food preparation. The contrasts create a tension.

And finally you reach the place you are looking for. An old wooden door decorated with metal bars. The door is open. One enters the room filled with humid air. And there... there it is... the Gitane. Her red dress covers the floor. Her skin, sweaty after dancing, glistens in the candlelight. Her dancing shoes are made of black leather, softened by the wild movements. It is the last phase which is decisive here. Sensual, yet strong. A fragrance that defies all conventions.

One might think that pyramid data in the abundance offered here would suffice to completely classify what is perceived upon request. But first of all Mr Jerjomin (I thank Jumi for the pronunciation help!) doesn't get lost in the listed details. His fragrances rather follow a recognizable line - although sometimes shifting over the course of the day - far away from picturesque confusion.

Secondly, a certain aroma may then require an expanding trace. The immediate Castoreum-ledrigen start is suddenly followed by a thought of liquorice. In her commentary on Chanel's 'No. 5' (EdC) Gelis had suggested that violet root could be responsible for this. And violets can be found today just officially and may give the impression of being neck pastille-lacritzy. Therefore I join the theory.

A hint of dark citrus fruit and a little bit of roughness - perhaps a subtle rose geranium - round off the fun. This is an opening to my taste. From a distance, because of partial aroma kinship, I think of a personal favorite: '20Mars2022' from Rundholz.

In the course of the morning, the sweet-woody theme is first embedded in a spicy vanilla environment before a formidable resin/smoky work appears around noon, which I would describe as tobacco-based myrrh and which reminds me of another star in my collection: 'Tigre du Bengale' by Malbrum. Including the breath of cola, which occasionally cavorts around myrrh (see Heeley's Eau Sacrée and Rume of Slumberhouse, where cola is even mentioned as a fragrance). I am no less happy to let myself be guided by this for a few hours and the liquorice idea also goes through the afternoon. A concluding ambratic-vanillian part remains throughout not only underground, but above all pleasantly serious-unsweet.

Conclusion: If I didn't already own two fragrances with '20Mars2022' from Rundholz and 'Tigre du Bengale' from Malbrum, which are certainly not twins, but which go at least in the same direction when it comes to flavours, 'La Gitane' would be a purchase candidate - after all, Can777 (many thanks for the sample!) has declared the cross-border procurement from the supplier to be problem-free. The fun costs dawdling 200 Euronen, hieiei..
