Morphine for the Senses
Years ago I fell in love with Morphine at Barneys. Yet its high price per ml and its weird cap blocked me from buying it even though it was the kind of fragrance I could never get tired of. Of course, after some years, Barneys closed in my area and the perfume became discontinued. I could not believe my luck when a brand new bottle was available for sale at a discounted price recently. The plus was that the weird tall winged cap was no longer present.
This is the kind of perfume one dreams of: perfect sillage and longevity, not too in-your-face, the right balance of notes and a name that fits. I cannot isolate individual notes here, as is often the case with a very well blended perfume. Suffice it to say that Morphine is incredibly sweet and boozy, develops into a slightly herbal accord and dries down into an equally boozy, less sweet spicy ending.
This is what a great perfume should be: it captures the wearer and everyone who smells it, develops on the skin, yet maintains its distinct character. An intoxicating drug.
