Eau de Parfum
Sarah Baker Perfumes Flame & Fortune Eau de Parfum is a unisex scent built around tuberose, labdanum and embers, setting floral and smoky sides against each other; it has been discontinued.
The scent reads as one piece: tuberose and orange blossom form a floral backbone, while lily of the valley adds a green freshness. Pink pepper and ginger bring a spicy warmth, and apricot adds a soft fruity touch. Embers and mezcal give it a smoky edge, with labdanum supplying a woody, animalic depth.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Despite the weight of the florals, the smoky and spicy side keeps it from reading clearly masculine or feminine, so it suits anyone. Cristian Cavagna Boa Madre and Acqua di Parma Gelsomino Nobile have a close profile.
