Cinnamon, a spice that confers both coziness and energy at once, is masterfully reflected in Pierre Guillaume’s Un Crime Exotique. A fragrance that arguably offers an exquisite composition that mirrors the coziness and warmth of the holiday season.
Un Crime Exotique is not merely a fragrance; it's an olfactory maze. The scent begins with a vibrant, punchy note, reminiscent of powdered spices that one might find wafting from a bustling kitchen during festive preparations. Its warmth is akin to that of a steaming pumpkin pie, emerging from the oven with hints of chili and then dusted with sugar.
The mastery of Pierre Guillaume is evident in the way he uses cinnamon in this fragrance. It's not just an addition; it's the star. The cinnamon unfolds its complexities with spiciness, progressing to a leathery quality that hints at tobacco or cocoa and finishing with a fruity undertone that brings to mind plums, cherries, and almonds. For that, it is solely an olfactory maze.
In the heart it features milky, doughy elements that add body and texture that make the fragrance feel fuller and almost chewable. Osmanthus in the mix adds a luxurious, syrupy layer, enhancing the overall texture and adding depth to the ginger cake illusion.
The base of the fragrance is rooted in tea, providing a grounding effect, while elemi on the top brings a citrusy musk, weaving in and out like the zesty twist of milky Earl Grey tea.
The world of festive fragrances spins around gourmand elements. Each scent offers its own interpretation of what it means to embody the spirit of the holidays.
