Olfactory floral allure
A dervish is also the oriental personification of art, grace and elegance. With respect, however, that fits Rogue for me. The label has already released numerous high-quality and imaginative fragrances, not infrequently floral, not infrequently old school. Manuel Cross has often been able to convince and even professed skeptics, as far as floral fragrances are concerned, he could win over. Empirically, I can say that. Now Derviche smells for me like a typical Rogue but yet again different because clearly more complex. You have to devote several hours to the fragrance, read it to understand what has been created here.
The musk as a foundation seems well chosen here. I myself can musk quickly become too much, here he is clearly worked out but especially the combination with the tobacco gives him a dirty-rough aura. If one dedicates oneself intensively to Derviche, animalic notes quickly peek out. The civet is not dominant but noticeable - in the spirit of earlier classic fragrances. The more time passes, the more the smoky vanilla emerges. The incense envelops the vanilla but only marginally, accordingly the smoky note. The base continues to tower over everything and you can't help but teleport to distant desert landscapes in your mind and sit out there at night with tea, while cool wind comes up and takes the intensity out of the heat. Gentle wind, heated ground, that too is Derviche. Again and again one perceives the jasmine, the unmistakable, floral-honey element of this flower, which grows precisely where the deserts are not far away. In the process, it becomes successively more sensual, more enticing.
Derviche radiates different, even diametrically opposed properties. On the one hand, the fragrance is floral-bitter, seems so unapproachable. On the other hand, however, also inviting, oriental with feel-good aura. Only the persistence of the perfume seems quite low, fades too quickly but who that does not bother, which awaits after a good three to four hours a graceful, floral fireworks full of heavy passion.
