Spice D'Arno
Spice D'Arno by Electimuss is an unisex extrait de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with pink pepper, bergamot, lemon, cardamom and elemi, moves into leather, labdanum, thyme, iris and orange blossom and dries down to oud, vanilla, myrrh and cashmeran. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
Heart
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Thyme Dry, sharp kitchen herb. Bracing and slightly antiseptic.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
