{"product_id":"maison-crivelli-oud-stallion-extrait-de-parfum-sample","title":"Maison Crivelli Oud Stallion Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe brand builds Oud Stallion on the thrill of a horse race before a cheering crowd, and on founder Thibaud Crivelli's long closeness to horses and leather. Jordi Fernandez is named as the perfumer. Cardamom, nutmeg and saffron meet a bright, smoky leather accord and oud in this Extrait de Parfum, which is a lot to take in at once, so a decant is a good way to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecardamom absolute from India, oud, nutmeg essential oil from Indonesia, saffron, rose absolute from Turkey, cedarwood essential oil from Morocco, leather accord, patchouli oil from Indonesia, roasted tonka bean absolute from Venezuela\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFresh spices\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCardamom absolute from India, nutmeg essential oil from Indonesia and saffron make up the spice side. The brand calls the leather accord bright and smoky, so expect spice and leather to arrive together, not one after the other. See whether that first burst feels lively or too dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOud and cedar\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOud and cedarwood essential oil from Morocco give the scent a dry, clean spine, with rose absolute from Turkey adding a dark floral shade. The brand lists the notes flat and describes cedarwood as the heart, so treat the whole as one blend rather than three stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA warm, low base\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath sit Indonesian patchouli oil and a roasted tonka bean absolute from Venezuela. The patchouli is earthy and the tonka dry and mildly sweet, so the base stays low and warm without turning sugary. This is the part you meet again late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCool air suits it, so try the decant on an autumn or winter evening. Spray the chest or the back of the neck lightly, since extraits are dense and easy to over-apply, and give it time to settle. A second try on another day tells you whether the leather and oud feel like yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople who like leather perfumes that are dry, spicy and woody rather than soft and sweet, and for oud lovers who prefer the note bright and lively rather than dark and heavy. Evenings, formal occasions and the colder months are its natural setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Maison Crivelli Oud Stallion as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe idea behind it, a horse race and the smell of leather, is vivid, but vivid ideas turn out differently on every skin. The brand lists nine key raw materials, from Moroccan cedarwood to Venezuelan tonka. Our 10 ml decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. It is not a brand sample.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is in the decant?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOud Stallion Extrait de Parfum, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a 10 ml glass spray vial and labelled by us.
