Close Up
Close Up by Olfactive Studio is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with coffee, spices and cherry, moves into tobacco, patchouli, cedarwood and rose de mai and dries down to amber, musk and tonka bean. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Coffee Roasted, bitter and dark. Adds edge to sweet fragrances.
- Spices Warm spice with no single spice named.
- Cherry Sweet, syrupy and a bit almondy. Currently everywhere.
Heart
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Rose de Mai Softer, honeyed May rose. Expensive and unmistakably natural.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
