Uff...my poor little nose is once again overwhelmed...
Many thanks to Nick for the bottling of Kinam Rouge Pure Parfum :-) Yes, once again my nose is totally overwhelmed... What I smell doesn't really match the fragrance pyramid. After all, the longevity of 10 to 12 hours is successful and the sillage, especially at the beginning, is very strong.

I don't recognize the citrus fruits from the fragrance pyramid in the top note at all. It smells more like rotten fruit to me...I can make out Virginia cedar though. The heart note doesn't smell floral to me at all either. For me, it goes more in an earthy, musty but also sweetish-dark direction. Labdanum, ribwort syrup and dried plums do come out here, but they are rather musty and unpleasant. There is also a hint of saffron in the background. The base has an animal, spicy and oriental scent of oud and musty undergrowth. Over time, the earthiness is carried by patchouli with hints of roots. Towards the end, it even smells smoky of myrrh and even vanilla-like of ambergris with a fine leatheriness.

Once again, this was not for me. Sorry!

incredibly spiritual and evocative of my childhood
this is an insanely complex fragrance. from the first spray to the fade off that almost never seems to come, many notes evolve and pass almost in a cinematic way.

the perfume includes vietnamese oud, which was one of the main reasons I got it. this is my first Ensar fragrance, and boy I had some high expectations coming into it! I am Vietnamese-American and I'm proud that the oud from Vietnam is one of the best in the world! So I was excited to try it.

the perfume liquid is quite dark, a deep burgundy. "rouge" is right... though I'd prefer that the french colonializing/orientalizing part of the name wasn't there.

when I popped off the lid to smell, it, _holy crap_ I was instantly reminded of my ba noi (grandma)'s house. It smelled _exactly_ the way being in her house felt like. ha! I instantly started laughing because I spent all this money and did a bunch of research to, essentially, end up smelling like my grandparents in a way. it felt like I was going to pay my respects to old black-and-white photos of my great-great grandparents at the altar with all the oranges and grapes laid out near some candles.

it hit me like a train with nostalgia and exhilaration. where the heck was I going to wear this, honestly??... still, the beauty of the smell captivates me and I carry it with me just to sniff at it. it's incredibly smooth and still. It smells like a very clean version of the agarwood incense that I burn to meditate.
