{"product_id":"sarah-baker-charade-extrait-de-parfum-sample","title":"Sarah Baker Charade Extrait de Parfum Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eCharade is described by Sarah Baker as the house's most classical composition, an Extrait de Parfum from 2019 made with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm. Tuberose and ylang-ylang lead, benzoin, leather, styrax and tea form a modern heart, and honey, amber, vetiver, moss and sandalwood close it. A formal white floral is a style that rewards a trial before a full bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Tuberose, Ylang-ylang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Benzoin, Leather, Styrax, Tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Honey, Amber, Vetiver, Moss, Sandalwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA formal entrance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuberose opens creamy and full-bodied, with ylang-ylang beside it adding a honeyed, slightly fruity warmth. Only two notes sit on top, which gives the start a composed, formal feel: a bouquet that enters a room slowly rather than rushing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eResin, leather, tea\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe modern touch arrives in the middle. Benzoin and styrax bring balsamic, resinous warmth, leather a smooth dark line, and tea cools the heart with a dry, slightly bitter note. The white flowers remain, but they stop being merely pretty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHoney, moss, wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoney and amber give the base sweetness with weight, while vetiver, moss and sandalwood supply earthy, woody dryness. It ends warm and sophisticated rather than sugary. As an extrait it stays close to the skin and fades gradually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTry it on a dressed-up evening and again on a plainer day, with a light hand, since tuberose and honey are rich in an extrait. Spring and autumn show it best, when the warmth feels natural. Watch what the leather and tea do to the flowers once the opening has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fit for tuberose fans, wearers of classic, formal perfumes, and anyone who wants nostalgia with a modern twist, all of whom like white flowers to have structure. It also suits those who like leather and resin under their flowers. Lovers of light, airy or fruity scents may find it too serious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Sarah Baker Charade as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuberose is one of the most polarising notes in perfumery, and honey and leather add two more strong opinions. Whether the combination feels elegant or heavy depends on your skin. A 10 ml decant lets you decide over a few wears before you take on 50 ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is in the decant?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10 ml of Charade Extrait de Parfum, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labelled by us.
