(Today) Along this week's theme of City Rhythm, this 2654 layered on top of Carthusia Corallium. The decant website realfragrances.com where I bought one or two things recently had an intriguing "The Best Layering Combination" and it was these two. And, man, they are right. Fabulous. The coconut and juniper over the wood base of Corallium really works.

Over 1,600 Fragrantica users give Blenheim Bouquet meh longevity and sillage ratings, for which reason, I held off buying it for years. But I remained intrigued, first with its composition - Amalfi Lemon, Lime, Pine, Lavender, Black Pepper, and Musk - and second with the user perspective on the relative strength of its notes, so I eventually picked it up on sale. If I am not too active, the longevity does much better for me than Fragrantica reviews suggest, but the sillage is always disappointingly weak after an hour, and fading.(02-07-2025, 06:19 AM)HighSpeed Wrote:Thursday ...

Perspective?
Most ist as seen on the photo:
Top notes: Damask rose
Heart notes: Clove
Base notes: Oud, praline
The fragrance begins with the rich and floral notes of Damask rose. Spicy clove is added in the heart note, giving the fragrance depth. The base note rounds off the fragrance with smoky oud and sweet praline, giving it a magnetic and decadent quality
The most suprising kick in it is the chocolate in the base
