Andrea Maack Craft Eau de Parfum - 50ml

Its 6am on a cold winter morning when the only sound around you is the motor of your warming up car. Sharp aldehydes and frozen metal give this fragrance a cool sophistication and a futuristic feel. Under its icy and metallic top note, a warm and woody heart is waiting to be thawed - a mixture of resinous elemi, earthy patchouli and robust cedar. The Elemi note is a note of incense with undertones of fresh citrus fruits and a hint of salt.

The opening is dominated by aldehydes strung in an icy fashion, leading to a cold metal accord. It's initially jarring, but quickly melds into your senses... After a while, a backbone of clean patchouli and elemi make themselves known, adding a darker and spicier edge, without being too aggressive. The aldehydes still maintain a slightly soapy vibe that randomly erupts over the base notes. It's an abstract composition, that feels quite grounded and carnal at the same time... Made in Iceland.
