#Frederic malle promise series#
It might have been a tell-tale sign of things to come when Malle priced Promise significantly less than all the others in the Middle East series that used real oud within. Cypriol is used by many perfume outfits to approximate the smell of oud. The chances of another winner seemed pretty high, but there was one key note that was a potential showstopper.
When I first heard about "Promise" being another Ropion and Malle collaboration, I was really eager to try the composition, as Ropion does his best work under Malle's direction yielding great results like Portrait of a Lady, Une Fleur de Cassie, Carnal Flower, and the first offering in the Malle Middle East series, The Night. Projection is excellent, as is longevity at around 12 hours on skin. As the composition moves to the late dry-down, the cypriol has become the star as the rose has long since vacated, staying so through the finish, only allowing hints of resinous dry honey-like labdanum to peep through in support. As the composition moves to its early heart, the apple vacates, leaving the airy rose to take the fore, adding sanitized light patchouli and mild pepper support, with faux-oud-like cypriol rising from the base, growing slowly in its intensity as time passes. Promise opens with an intersting slightly sweet, but also tart unripened apple with underlying airy rose support. The perfumer here is looking for needless complication and self obsession.įragrance: 8/10 just don't know who would carry it off As Picasso honed his art he looked for simplicty and unification.
