Description

The collection of Aedes de Venustas, the famous boutique specialized in niche perfumery, has been increased by a new edition presented in February 2015, inspired by palisander (rosewood). The name of the fragrance is PALISSANDRE D’OR and its composition is signed by master perfumer Alberto Morillas. After last year’s editions Copal Azur and Oeillet Bengale, new perfume Palisandre d’Or builds its story around aromas of Indian rosewood, known also as Dalbergia sissoo, historically the primary type of rosewood in India.

The composition of fragrance PALISSANDRE D’OR is composed of accords of ambrette, pink pepper, coriander, cinnamon, nutmeg, rare rosewood extract from Sri Lanka, copahu balsam, patchouli extract, ambroxan, Virginia cedar, Chinese cedar and Alaskan cedar. The strong blend of cedar incorporates three different types accompanied with key notes of milky rosewood embellished with spices and warm resins. The fragrance is announced as extremely creamy, milky, slightly smoky and silky.

Palissandre d’Or arrives in the same flacon form as previous editions of the collection Aedes de Venustes as 100 ml Eau de Parfum as well as in a purse flacon with three refills 10 ml. The fragrance can be expected in sale starting from May 2015.

    Spices then rosewood and patchouli, this is a beauty. This is my first test run with Aedes de Venustas. I like slightly masculine scents, and this is sweet but woody. I can imagine wearing this on a regular basis.
    There’s only one problem.
    This has zero projection. In fact, some where around 2 hours (max) this turns to a personal scent. I can smell it but not one else. I’ve never gotten a compliment. That’s the only fault of the perfume, a little projection or sillage would’ve made this a 10.

    Light, spicy woods. Another hit from seller turned perfumer, Aedes de Venustas. It’s a little bit like stuff you’ve smelled before in the niche scene – that airy wood – but a little bit different, too. The spices, for me especially the cinnamon, holds the structure together, but it’s just one part of a complex, harmonious whole. It manages to be both cool, even a little damp, and spicy at the same time; a very classy take on the overdone “Fresh! But Spicy!” men’s cologne genre. There’s a brisk, almost mint toothpaste-like feel to the fragrance. At the same time, it’s still soapy enough to feel serious, as well as cosy enough to give it some warmth and humanity. Elegantly, confidently relaxed.

    Dry, clean, classy, airy wood – and yes, the distinctive rosewood aroma is really there, it’s not just cheaper cedar or sandal wood with added aromatics. At its best this really is the smell of the finest carved-wood antique furniture you could ever dream of, so warm and welcoming and organic. Really redolent of real, lovingly waxed and polished timber. Radiating resins too. Too many R’s, I know. RrrrrrRRRRrrrr, it makes me purr.
    But. But. But. I get very little of the spicing, as it’s so well blended in… either my sense of smell is diminishing or the test spritz I got (from a P Roma demo bottle in Jovoy, London) had faded a little, because I can’t imagine anyone finding this ‘rough’ or over-assertive. Or a skin chemistry issue perhaps?
    I’d certainly say this one’s 100% unisex for those who love upmarket and subtle wood scents. In any case, for me its only fault is that it’s just too discreet; the longevity & projection are just weedy. This has showstopping character and originality and deliciousness, but not the stamina or strength to back them up. If it works on your skin and lasts, I truly envy you, because this is fabulous stuff.

    Palissandre d’Or is one of my faves from the Aedes de Venustas line. Not really a surprise since Alberto Morillas is the nose behind it and by and large, his creations are a great fit for my olfactory sensibilities.
    Palissandre d’Or is all spice up top and actually a bit rough. Nutmeg, coriander and pepper being quite distinctive. The spices fade a bit and the star of this creation, the namesake Palisander rosewood takes centre stage, flanked by patchouli and a mixture of spice and balsamic notes. This heart of the fragrance is a woods and spice mix with Patchouli being the glue holding it together. The base is pretty much these notes fading a bit and the cedar coming up and saying hello.
    Longevity on this is pretty good, I can sniff it on my clothes at the end of the day, easily 6-8 hours but projection is on the softer side. Nobody in my family could sniff it on me unless they got within hugging range but once they did, feedback was good. So all good there for the most part.
    Final Thoughts -: I am torn as I say it but I would say decant rather than Full bottle. As much as I love the smell of this frag, the so so projection is a serious problem in spending the big bucks on a FB. This is a frag I love and will definitely be springing for a decant. If I can get a good deal, that might end up being a FB. If you like spicy woody frags, definitely do check it out.

    It has a similar milky dry woody vibe to Tom Ford’s Oud Wood, but much more natural and sophisticated (although Oud Wood has a shamelessly “cologny” touch that makes it slightly nicer). I only wished nutmeg and patchouli aren’t so prominent..

    An explosion of pink pepper, sandalwood and pear which puts out a memorable sillage that people notice long after you cant smell it on yourself anymore. A very close but not cloying sweetness brought about by the ambrox on skin with whispers of cedar, leather, lapsang tea and lingering moss. A beautiful grown up fragrance for women and men.
    Love when I catch whiffs of it on my cashmere jumper and woollen scarves

    This is lovely, the quality is excellent, yet for me it’s a little too hard-edged and (sorry to gender it!) masculine. I adore cedar wood and rosewood, but I think the spicy and patchouli elements tip this into tougher grounds.
    There’s no doubt it’s beautiful though, it reminds me of entering a perfectly preserved Tudor mansion – the scent of old woods and old fashioned pot pourri, slightly Medieval.
    The animalic element lent by ambrette gives a slightly sweaty, human presence without being skanky, a slightly saline quality that made me think of vetiver.
    It’s the way I’d like all my furniture to smell, I’d definitely hang a pomander scented like this in my wardrobe, and a faint whiff of this lingering on clothes would be perfect, but as a perfume, as mentioned, I find it veers towards masculine. This was confirmed to me when my male friend tested this. Also the fact that the sillage is quite strong, I could smell it an hour after he tried on one spray, a few feet away and outdoors!
    Strictly speaking it’s unisex, since the scent of woods is genderless, and this isn’t like a fougere or in any sense sporty or macho, but speaking for myself I wanted it to be a little more gentle. It is perfectly balanced and blended though, my friend described it as ’rounded’.
    Beautiful, high quality, classy perfume, and I’ll definitely be testing more by Aedes de Venustas

    I must say, this is one of the best woody perfume I have ever tired so far. Smells so natural, seems like walking in the fogy forest at the winter time, something burning around like campfire and you enjoy the moment. This won’t be populer in the perfumery but I’m pretty sure, there is someone to understand the value of Palissandre d’Or. Hidden beauty!

    Subtle and very, very dry with the hint of slight sweetness. Perfectly unisex, stays closely to skin giving a very elegant approach.
    “Palissandre d’Or” is suitable for those people who enjoy wearing scents that stay close to skin, giving an elegant and beautifully creamy whiff to anyone who comes close enough. Luxury and subtle, wraps the wearer with a very classy and warm scent like cashmere shawl.
    Lasting power was average on my wrists, around 5 hours and in all honesty I found it a bit too light for my taste.

    This struck me immediately because of the cinnamon and nutmeg, which I adore. Also the clean, polished smell of rose wood. While not listed, I feel as though there is definitely some sandal in the composition too.
    The scent over all is dry, sweet, spicy and woody. Quite simple and linear, but fans of other cinnamon scents like “Spice Bomb” and “Noel au Balcon” will definitely appreciate it.
    Good for casual day wear and quite unisex.
