Duchaufour can just do it .....
Since I love aldehydes, I know quite a few of their manifestations, and also many of their various pairings with other notes.....
The pairing with whiskey, however, was new to me....as was the scent whiskey itself.....
What I perceive here now, however, is downright delightful!!!! Unusual and unique.
The top note initially gives me an almost fresh and neat-clean impression.....I suspect it's galbanum that keeps the scent from taking on an overly liqueur-sweet hue at this point.....
Nonetheless, a mild sweetness soon joins in....not a sticky one, but rather a natural, spicy-floral sweetness that immediately merges with a delicate leather note.....a leather note that is present in its action, but which always remains subtle.......
Even the incense remains to my extreme pleasure only "regulating" accessory.....its silent presence only serves to perfect this wonderfully complex fragrance experience......
Towards the base, the fragrance finally glides into spicy-resinous realms.....here it is now the vetiver that keeps the sweetness inherent in the resins and other base notes quite exquisitely and elegantly in check.....
Tralala is for my nose a quite outstandingly composed and truly unique fragrance.........a fragrance that, despite the multitude of spicy-resinous-sweet notes, reveals a chypric echo, albeit a distant one.
Only the name could have been chosen a little happier ;-).....
