Item Description
....Dark stormclouds race across the sky in a chaotic array, dizzying your senses. Up ahead you see an abandoned church, seeming to beckon to you. What's this? The cross on the facade is upside down.... Entering, you see a casket, black rose petals strewn across it.... A sense of dread pervades you, and the heady scent of roses assaults your nostrils.... Dread turns to horror as the casket lid begins to creak open.....a clawed hand emerges.... a scream tears from your ragged throat....
....the dream still clutches you as you lurch awake in your bed.... your wife sleeps soundly beside you, unaware of your distress. Smiling awkwardly, you take a deep breath and calm your racing heart..... your wife's pulse beats rhythmically at her pale white neck.... calling....calling. You lean over and brush your lips across her neck, eliciting a moan of pleasure from her dream-addled state. Then you bite, the warm, salty blood coursing down your throat like a river....the forbidden pleasure wells up from deep inside you....
OK, that's enough of that. Get the idea of what this scent is about?
Rose scents for men are problematic. I find most way too sweet and cloying, especially ones like Hammam Bouquet. #88 is a different beast entirely. It is a powerful, brooding, rose scent that elicits all sorts of emotions. It reminds me of vampires, roses being crushed in an iron fist, huge-thorned rose bushes tearing down an ancient stone wall, that sort of thing. It became one of my favorite scents from the moment I first tried it. That being said, do try a sample first - this is a love-it or hate-it, powerful, in your face scent that can be difficult to pull off.
