Chamarré by Mona di Orio

*****
Year: 2009

Notes: aldehydes, clary sage, lavender, Turkish rose, violet, iris from Florence, opopanax, ambergris, cashmeran

Comment: Chamarré is part of the Signature Collection

As a disjointed floral-oriental, Chamarré opens with sharp aldehydes before swiftly being oppressed by a crude and prevalent violet accord. Ultimately, the rest of the florals remain suppressed, while the composition exudes a persistent cardboard note that quickly outstays its welcome.

Possessing an earthy, aromatic and fruity musk foundation from the cashmeran, it becomes rather evident just how frustratingly taxing many of Mona di Orio's earlier creations can be... even with sufficient perseverance.
