![]() ![]() This gives it a soothing and pleasantly warm aura. That one also has such a (black)berry opening on me that reminds me a bit of delicious cough syrup. I draw the comparisons here to Accord Oud by Byredo. There's something very pleasantly medicinal with a dash of sweetness in the opening of the scent. Black Gemstone also smells like berry cough drops to me at the beginning. Black Gemstone is described here (and also on other platforms) always with this absolute darkness, the absence of light or pure blackness That the impressions of others but so differ from their own, is then still surprising. It is undoubtedly a fragrance that elbows out in the mainstream and draws attention to itself, yet it is not a troublemaker.Ī fragrance which drove my olfactory experience, a fragrance which I trusted, which surprised me, which exudes pride and elegance, which should not simply be perceived but given time, time to be understood the ultimately I was rewarded with the trust and time I gave it, with fascination.īlack Gemstone, a fragrance that polarizes and provokes, but for me in a positive sense.Īs in music, the perception of scents is apparently extremely subjective. It was a great fit for this situation, creating a mystical aura of elegance and profound curiosity, and that's exactly how I started this cold but eventful evening along with this quick-witted and very grown-up scent.īlack Gemstone can not be persuaded at any stage of his time to become loose and sweet, not even by his tonka bean, which he carries according to the fragrance pyramid but clearly unrecognizable with him, he remains in every second that he is present, dead serious, serious and quick-witted gloomy. It's the myrrh that takes center stage with resinous nuances and a woody base, and the frankincense that gets some lightness and effervescence from the lemon, so it's tamed and restrained, so it never gets overly loud and provocative, but it's still present. So I ventured, two sprays left and right on the back of my neck, I let it wash over me and immediately it began to take over the helm of my radiance. I held the bottling in my hand and looked at it thoughtfully for a moment, but Black Gemstone was already waiting to finally be released like chained growling dogs. This must be the time, I thought, to let Black Gemstone get to my skin. It was snowing the temperatures which were below freezing and the bitter cold wind which made it seem even colder emotionally than it already was, a freezing cold winter day as it is written in the book, on days like this I like to reach for sweet woody scents which have a warming effect and wrap around me like a cloak, just not on this day! Well, different halt, that's what I felt in the first few minutes, which was not negative at all, so I wanted something yes!ĭry and rough were my first perceptions, in which it also remained for the time being.Ī nice dinner in the city, alone with my lady is what the evening had in store for me. ![]() Very carefully I approached my wrist, on which the fragrance was applied. I now prepared for my bottling and adjusted to the challenging fragrance and first developed a cautious and above all an objective attitude, which I can also recommend to you. Resins, incense and woods is all I knew about it in advance, and I must admit that I can only conditionally like fragrances with incense, so Black Gemstone had to get over this obstacle first. My search led me relatively soon to Stephane Humbert Lucas, a painter, poet and perfumer, if it should be now about creativity, I should be right here.įor a long time his creative and above all extravagant, but very magnificent flacons were buzzing around in my head. I scrolled through Parfumo for a bit, as I so often do in my spare time, but this time with the goal of finding just as much of a fragrance composition. So I constantly smelled compositions that were similar, but that was simply because I clearly find myself in this fragrance category.Īnyway, I needed a fragrance at this stage that was out of the ordinary, I wanted to think outside the box again and expand my horizons, I wanted something new, something deep, something confident, something extravagant and something creative, but still something wearable. Reflectively considered, there are phases in which I turn me smell-technically in the circle.Īs an oriental and especially gourmand lover, I deal mostly with heavy and sweet scents. ![]()
