      CHYPRE AZURAL (2016) • LES INDEMODABLES🔺, ScentAdvice

      Orange is listed and it’s very strongly represented in the opening. It’s juicy and very fruity, with a lot of acidity, but there’s also the instant addition of a warmer, greener and earthier undercurrent.

      It smells very natural and it has that citrussy bitterness (more so than the citrus in Iris Perle or Musc Des Sables). There’s a green aromatic tinge, but the orange is strong enough to keep it at bay.

      Where I enjoyed Chypre Azural the most on first impression is when I ‘went looking’ for the rose. The rose isn’t pronounced; it’s not a rose-patch akin to Portrait Of A Lady; a more apt comparison would be the rose-citrus combination in Guerlain Habit Rouge as some people have pointed out. You have to look for it though and I would be inclined to label this is a citrus scent.

      More importantly, as it dries it transforms at one point, where it gets very musky to my nose, in the same direction a Musk Cologne or Amber Cologne by Bortnikoff goes. I actually think it becomes slightly daring to wear in the drydown for me personally. That being said, it remains very citrussy throughout.
