The first perfume I’ve tried from this house but won’t be my last! OMG this is so good!! I love a honey note in my perfume and this is definitely FB worthy! Leans fem but a man could pull this off too! Off to check out some other scents of theirs!
A salty leather with lots of spices. A specific one.
This is just a winter and a Christmas fairytale. For me this is a unisex fragrance. However, it’s a gorgeous scent that I would love to smell in a man. It’s not long lasting and the projection is poor even after 10 sprays. So very low performance unfortunately. But you can really see it’s a high quality composition. Looking a for another Brecourt but more femenine, stronger and oriental, woody or gourmand. So any suggestion will be more than welcome!
Farah reminds me a lot of L'Erbolario's Dolcelisir - they're both very cosy, wonderfully warm and deliciously spicy in a boozy way that's perfect for a cold day, but that can also become too much quite easily when it's a bit warmer or when I'm just not in the right mood. The only difference, at least to my nose, is that Farah might be just a little more subtle: it has dried dates where Dolcelisir has a hint of apples, and so it doesn't have that slight juiciness, and the drydown is quite a bit softer and sweeter. But that's really not much of a difference, and to be honest I'm not even sure if I could tell the two of them apart in a blind test...so I think I'll stick with L'Erbolario's much cheaper version if my decants ever run out and I need a full bottle, even though I love this one at least as much.
I agree with the reviewers here saying that this is a very close relative (the younger and sweeter sister) of Ambre Narguile. I love both. Haram is a tad sweeter, maybe a bit more feminine, but not overly so. I swear I detect some bitter almond sweetness in the top notes, that differentiates is from Narguile. From the middle notes down it is heavenly, oriental (but not scary) and unisex. Its longevity is superb, too. As with Ambre Narguile, Haram is for me full bottle worthy for sure, I only do not know where it can be found in the UK. Many thanks to MsLetterO for sending me a very generous sample:)
