{"product_id":"argos-triumph-of-bacchus-eau-de-parfum-sample","title":"Argos Triumph of Bacchus Eau de Parfum Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eArgos built Triumph of Bacchus around the Roman god of wine and revelry and calls the result opulent and unisex. It opens with saffron and rum, moves through patchouli, jasmine and tonka bean, and ends on tobacco, amber and vanilla. Gourmand perfumes divide opinion, so a 10 ml decant is a sensible first meeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Saffron, Rum, White Peach, Green Apple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Patchouli, Jasmine, Tonka Bean, Vetiver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Tobacco, Amber, Mysore Sandalwood, Musk, Vanilla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSaffron and rum\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSaffron and rum open the perfume, with white peach and green apple beside them. The fruit is limited to those two, which keeps the start from turning purely boozy. A decant lets you judge whether dry spice next to a warm spirit appeals to you before the heart arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFour notes in the heart\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePatchouli, jasmine, tonka bean and vetiver form the heart. Earthy patchouli and vetiver stand against floral jasmine and sweet tonka. This is the most layered stage of the composition, and the one that skin tends to change the most from person to person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTobacco and vanilla\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base lists tobacco, amber, Mysore sandalwood, musk and vanilla. Tobacco brings a dry, leafy warmth, vanilla a soft sweetness, and the sandalwood rounds off both. Wearing the sample across a full evening shows how these five settle together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brand describes a scent for celebrations and cooler evenings, so test it in that setting: an autumn dinner, a night out, a cold walk home. Apply the decant to the wrist or neck and come back to it as the evening moves on, instead of judging at the first sniff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnyone drawn to warm, sweet perfumes with a dry, spiced edge, such as gourmand fans who still want tobacco and saffron in the mix. Argos presents it as unisex. If clean, light or aquatic scents are more your style, the first test will tell you quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Argos Triumph of Bacchus as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRum, tobacco and vanilla make a combination that some people love at once and others find too much. The perfume dates from 2019 and was created by Christian Petrovich. Our 10 ml decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle, so you can try it before you take on 100 ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the decant a sample from Argos?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, it is our own work. The Eau de Parfum is decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a glass spray vial, labelled by us, and the house plays no part in it. You get 10 ml to test at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDoes the tobacco stop it being too sweet?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTobacco and amber sit beside the vanilla in the base, so the sweetness comes with a dry edge. Whether that balance works for you is exactly what a sample can show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich season suits it best?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe brand points to celebrations and cooler evenings. In warm weather the heavy, sweet base may feel thick to some wearers, so try the decant on a few days with different temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Argos","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67693356581018,"sku":"DG-ARG-TRIUMPH-OF-BACCHUS-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67693356613786,"sku":"DG-ARG-TRIUMPH-OF-BACCHUS-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67693324042394,"sku":"DG-ARG-TRIUMPH-OF-BACCHUS-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/argos-triumph-of-bacchus-eau-de-parfum-sample.jpg?v=1791395666","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/argos-triumph-of-bacchus-eau-de-parfum-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
