Bigarade Santal

Legendär · 2020

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Legendär Bigarade Santal is a unisex scent that sets bright citrus against a green, woody base. It lasts well and its sillage is moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick it for daily wear, leisure and the office, and few for nights out. It opens with Italian bergamot, grapefruit and bitter orange, a fresh citrus start. Guatemala cardamom and rose in the heart add a floral, spicy softness. The base of birch tar, Virginia cedar, sandalwood and Haitian vetiver settles into a dry, woody finish. Diptyque Vetyverio and Perris Monte Carlo Bergamotto di Calabria have a close profile.

Juniper Leather

7.1

Legendär · 2020

Fresh · Green · Spicy

Legendär Juniper Leather is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, green opening over a leathery, woody and earthy base. The top notes of juniper wood, French lavender and aldehydes give a clean, bright and lightly spicy start. Rose and iris in the heart soften that edge. In the base, leather, oakmoss, Haitian vetiver and Indian papyrus take over, and the scent dries down resinous, earthy and woody. It is neither clearly sweet nor floral; its character sits between green freshness and leather. Ulrich Lang Nightscape and Miller Harris Fleurs de Sel have a close profile.
