{"product_id":"lorenzo-pazzaglia-van-py-rhum-extrait-de-parfum-sample","title":"Lorenzo Pazzaglia Van Py Rhum Extrait de Parfum Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eLorenzo Pazzaglia Van Py Rhum is an Extrait de Parfum on a single theme: barrel-aged rum wrapped in several vanillas, Bourbon, Madagascar, Tahitian and Mohea. Earthy Indonesian patchouli gives it structure. A scent this concentrated on one idea is easy to love or to find too much, so a decant lets you check before buying 50 ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Bourbon Vanilla, Madagascar Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Tahitian Vanilla, Mohea Vanilla, Rhum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Island Vanilla, White Flowers, Caramel, Patchouli\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Agarwood (Oud), Indonesian Patchouli, Barricaded Rhum, Black Vanilla pod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA chorus of vanillas\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe opening is almost all vanilla, with Bourbon, Madagascar, Tahitian and Mohea each lending its own shade, plus tonka bean for warmth. Rum is present from the first minute, not saved for later. The layering stops the opening from reading flat or purely sugary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCaramel and white flowers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the heart, island vanilla continues, with caramel adding depth to the sweetness and white flowers supplying a pale, soft counterpoint. Patchouli appears here for the first time and starts to outline the sweetness, so it is no longer a single note. Check how the flowers feel on your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCask, wood and a black pod\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarrel-aged rum returns in the base, now next to agarwood, patchouli from Indonesia and a black vanilla pod. According to the brand it is the earthy patchouli that gives the whole structure and balance. The result is a warm, dark and unhurried finish that suits the brand's picture of a glass of rum by a fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear the decant on a cool evening, indoors at first, and use very little, because the vanillas build quickly and the base is dense. Notice whether the rum feels like a warm accent or a dominant theme. A second trial on a milder day shows if the composition still feels comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sample suits people who adore vanilla and want it paired with rum and patchouli instead of pastry. Evening wearers, and anyone who finds light fruity-sweet perfumes thin, will understand the appeal. Lovers of crisp, airy scents will probably move on, and a decant tells you so cheaply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Lorenzo Pazzaglia Van Py Rhum as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne idea followed through three layers is a strong statement, and the question is whether you want to live with it. Our decant, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, lets you answer that before buying 50 ml. It is not a brand sample, and the brand is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat does Rhum mean in the notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is the brand's spelling of rum. Barrel-aged rum opens the perfume and returns in the base as barricaded rhum, which is the Italian idea of rum aged in a barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the decant from the original bottle?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. We fill a 10 ml glass spray vial from the original bottle and label it. It is a decant, not a Lorenzo Pazzaglia sample, and we are not affiliated with the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow sweet is Van Py Rhum?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVery vanilla-led, but caramel, white flowers and above all Indonesian patchouli and oud give it some earthy and dark contrast. A sample shows if the sweetness suits you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhen does it suit best?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe warm, dark profile points to cool evenings and the colder half of the year. Testing in different weather helps you decide if it earns space in your wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lorenzo Pazzaglia","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67693362479258,"sku":"DG-LPA-VAN-PY-RHUM-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67693362512026,"sku":"DG-LPA-VAN-PY-RHUM-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67693328597146,"sku":"DG-LPA-VAN-PY-RHUM-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/lorenzo-pazzaglia-van-py-rhum-extrait-de-parfum-sample.jpg?v=1791395695","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/lorenzo-pazzaglia-van-py-rhum-extrait-de-parfum-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
