Sleight Of Fern
Sleight Of Fern by Masque Milano is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, lavender, fig leaf, mastic and thyme, moves into tuberose, geranium and narcissus and dries down to sandalwood, birch, patchouli, oakmoss and tonka bean. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Fig Leaf Milky, green and slightly coconut-like. The smell of shade.
- Mastic Resinous pine-and-lemon. The chew of Greek gum.
- Thyme Dry, sharp kitchen herb. Bracing and slightly antiseptic.
Heart
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Narcissus Green, hay-like and slightly animalic. Strange and beautiful.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Birch Clean pale wood. The leaves, not the tar.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
