Perfume critic: a rare profession. It is a person who has dedicated their life to studying fragrance...
The house of Clive Christian gifted the world with Chasing the Dragon Hypnotic in 2017. A masculine fragrance rooted in the spicy and east families. Conceived and brought to life by perfumer Clive Christian. Chasing the Dragon Hypnotic — proudly part of the Addictive Arts collection. The fragrance is presented as perfume extract.
The longevity of this fragrance is moderate — exactly what most occasions call for. Country of origin — the United Kingdom: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. Chasing the Dragon Hypnotic Clive Christian — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance has medium longevity and lasts on the skin for about 5-6 hours, gradually revealing its notes and leaving a pleasant impression
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Chasing the Dragon Hypnotic is shaped as an expressive line of development, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The signature of Clive Christian comes through in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Perfume extract emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
In the first seconds you catch resinous-spicy opening notes: Bergamot, Elemi, Frankincense and Ginger.
In the central layer you detect Basil, Cherry, Cinnamon, Clove, Fir Resin and Labdanum carrying a cinnamon-nutmeg direction.
The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Aromatic, Citrus and Fruit with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Wood, Amber and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The profile is masculine, which clarifies the composition character.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Balsamic, Spicy and Aromatic. It also reaches into Fruit, Ambery, Wood and Gourmet.
Overall Chasing the Dragon Hypnotic holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
