    Originally I thought that this perfume was inspired by Scandinavian crime dramas! I’ve even read as much in early web reviews, but according to Fabrice Pelligrin, the nose who created Nordic Noir, he wanted to recreate the biting cold of breathing in frigid air. That blast of arctic chill that causes you to breath slowly so that your lungs don’t freeze! He uses a spearmint/ginger accord to achieve the fragrance sensation, and in the opening he attains it! It only lasts for a few minutes, but it has the distinctive smell of icy winter air.
    I still like my Scandi-crime drama premise b/c the frigid air disappeared and the fragrance became a changeling! A perfume with intensely different transitions. On my skin, it morphed into a warm androgynous vanilla scent – potent vanilla, laced with sandalwood and an undercurrent so well mixed no one note stood out. Then it became more woody, a talc-like sandalwood mixed with cedar, the smell of tree-lined slopes with fresh powder on the trail! The evolution was gradual, but it ultimately smelled completely different in the drydown than it did in the opening.
    I’ve worn it several times to experience the transformations. Very creative and beautiful. Nordic Noir is a great genre of writing, this perfume tells a story.

    The first time I wore this I couldn’t get past the overwhelming heliotrope-musk combination. It is quite bracing. But today it’s much warmer out, and I’ve been craving this fragrance again. It is very clean in an off-putting, unapproachable way, the way that straight clean suits and minimalist furnishings and monochromatic wardrobes are clean. What makes it interesting to my nose is the vein of spearmint running through, as well as the slightly sweet vanilla in the dry down that peeks through the powder and dry woods. This fragrance is a little too -modern- for me, but I’m glad to have a sample to reach for as it satisfies a particular mood.
    Update: Agonist confirmed that this fragrance is Blue North (also in the database) under a different name for the US market, in case anyone was wondering.
