Arcane

A green classic if ever there was one. Pity it projects so moderately and fades so quickly.

An impressionist's impression of smoke, subtly tobacco-leafed sweet, with a soft spiciness and slow vanilla-ish fade. Mysterious, alluring.

What Tinharé becomes after circa two hours of BR540 I couldn't yet tell you. A lovely and subtle blend though, not just for colder seasons.

Essence, being mossy-earthier than the original Déclaration, is masculine spice to the max. Great sillage, fair longevity, elegant bottle.

A smashing opening of cardamom and pink pepper, a slow drydown of spicy lovage and bright immortelle mainly - unusual and fascinating.
