P.S. Not to say it smells like Sacrebleu; in fact, it’s a little closer to something like Kenzo Amour. Just to say it’s in that family of nearly edible scents. ‘Kay?

Just tried a preview sample. Creamy bergamot-rose wood pudding!
Slightly sweet, very delicious, not at all dark and “difficult.” Fans of PdN Sacrebleu will love this. Yum.

Immortelle (Helichrysum italicum) is sometimes called the “curry plant,” so maybe this is what they mean.

Hmm, yes, I like some dark and dusty myself, actually – thinking of LADDM and Kenzo Fleur Oriental. I will rephrase that as “mouldy and sooty”.

Yes…but, that doesn’t mean any actual satinwood went into this perfume…or even that there’s a synthetic “satinwood” — sometimes they just say whatever sounds nice & that’s what we mean by “fantasy note”.

You got me curious so I Googled it. Satinwood is an actual tree native to S.E. Asia, India and Sri Lanka. There is also a variety native to the West Indies. The wood is used in flooring and cabinetry as it can be polished to a high gloss. No mention of its odor.
