Idiem Lux · 2024

Green · Spicy · Woody

Idiem Lux Rooted is a unisex scent with a green, woody and smoky character, roughened by animalic and earthy touches; it has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on only a small number of votes. With such a dense, dark build, it is a scent that stays with you through the day and makes its presence known. Oakmoss, cade juniper, birch tar and patchouli form the backbone; thyme and black pepper add a spicy edge, while pine, hemlock fir and juniper wood bring a resinous, forest-like depth. Civet and castoreum push the animalic side, and strawberry leaf adds a green lift. Areej Le Doré Oud Taiwan and Anatole Lebreton Grimoire have a close profile.

Memories

8.5

Idiem Lux · 2024

Fresh · Green · Fruity

Idiem Lux Memories is a unisex fragrance that pairs a fresh, green start with smoky, woody and animalic depth; it has been discontinued. The notes read as a single blend rather than a layered pyramid: blood orange, grapefruit and apple give a bright, fruity side, while cade juniper, birch tar and frankincense add a smoky, resinous depth. Cinnamon and black pepper bring spice, and civet with castoreum lend an animalic, leathery weight. Voters find both longevity and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. With its woody, spicy build it suits men and women who want a fragrance with character. Duftanker MGO Duftmanufaktur Afghano Oudh and Puig Quorum have a close profile.
