Scents of eras: how perfume reflects the spirit of the times
Every era has its own scent. Not literally, but in how it felt: what it wanted, what it feared, what...
The year 2016 gave us Arborath 7 Otentic. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the spicy and wood families. Perfumer Jean Denis Saisse left a distinct mark on this composition.
The birthplace of this fragrance — the Netherlands, a place with a refined nose. Arborath 7 Otentic unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate 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 Arborath 7 is built as a living composition, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Otentic is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail.
When the structure is mixed the fragrance opens as a single chord with a noble cedar mood: Absinthe, Cardamom, Coumarin, Frankincense, Iris, Patchouli and Sandalwood. Here 7 notes act as one voice, forming clear woody framework that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The deeper layers are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The accord profile rests on these accords: Balsamic, Aromatic, Gourmet and Wood with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Powdery and Spicy add depth to the backdrop.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Drinks, Spicy, Sweet and Balsamic. The palette also extends to Floral and Wood. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to Spicy and Wood.
In summary Arborath 7 holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best judged through real development.
