El Dorado is the richest and most complex of the house — an extrait de parfum that resembles nothing else in the catalogue.
— The opening is disconcerting in the best sense: caramel, nutmeg, mandarin and cumin. Cumin is a spice almost nobody dares put in the top notes — warm, earthy, very oriental. Paired with the caramel, it creates an immediately recognisable sweet-spiced contrast.
— The heart is precious: ambroxan, saffron and violet. The ambroxan gives the impression of warm skin and carries far, the saffron brings its leathery facet, and the violet a powdery veil that softens the whole.
— The base is the most carefully built in the selection: leather, vanilla, akigalawood, white musk, moss and oud. Akigalawood is a molecule derived from patchouli that evokes oud with more clarity — here it accompanies the real oud instead of replacing it.
An evening fragrance, for autumn and winter, unisex. To be honest: cumin and oud together make an assertive register, and this is not a fragrance to give blind. But for someone who already knows oriental perfumery, it is a genuinely fine composition. One to two sprays.
