{"product_id":"illyria","title":"Illyria","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e435 Illyria \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIllyria is an attar revolving around the profile of Gentian root.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI made this with an absolute of Gentian from 2019. It's profile is very unique, akin to sweet tamarind and soaked raisins, with a beautiful leafy, floral note hidden among the fruity, malty elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy focus was to unearth the floral elements, while lessening the tamarind notes. This was very difficult and took a lot of time, but I feel I have made a scent that has a very unique and displays some new floral aspects that are perhaps not smelled so often in perfumery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmelling from the applicator, Illyria has a sweet, powdery, musky, floral scent, with hints of pumpkin and sarsaparilla. This is an unusual profile, it has some rosy aspects, the Gentian resembles tomato leaf so a small degree as well as the green aspects of Tuberose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIllyria feels like a fragrant garden, it has some vegetal and leafy aspects, with sweet pea and rooibos alongside pumpkin and violet leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high notes are fluffy and sweet, with pink and purple floral features, alongside leafy rooibos and Gentian elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mid notes lean towards a sweet, juicy, vegetal feel, akin to pumpkin and tomato, with lush rose leaf and petal aspects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is a vibrant Trat oud, with dark violet leaf, creamy sarsaparilla and benzoin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is really a curio attar, made because I want to make things that smell different and new to my nose, but I think aspects of my perfumer's DNA can be sensed by those who are familiar with my work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmelling on the skin, Illyria opens with a peachy, dense, sweet, musky floral note. The airy notes of Osmanthus and Sweet Pea lead into deeper, lush rosy mid notes. It begins as a soft, sweet, airy floral, and slowly becomes brighter and more radiant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gentian comes through in a very unusual way, the absolute smells quite different when blended. It displays a blue, purple, floral leafy note that has some similarities to violet leaf and tomato leaf, it also has some vegetal sweetness, which is not as apparent in the blend, this has been minimized with the use of sarsaparilla, shaping the scent to be more rooty and creamy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the scent settles, the notes become deeper and more prominent, the pumpkin-like notes show up better as time passes. Many notes show up after 20 minutes, vibrant carnation, malty gnidia, dark undercurrents of violet leaf and rooibos, enhanced with a pervasive musky overtone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter around 30 minutes Illyria become more purple in feeling, with the rooibos and Trat oud appearing more prominently. Hints of boronia and blackcurrant show up\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis attar contains a larger amount of Mongolian deer musk and ambergris than usual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIllyria is made with the following materials:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGentian (Absolute: Rooty, sweet, vegetal, balsamic)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFleur de Cuir (EO: Floral, smoky, creamy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSarsaparilla (Co2: Sweet, rooty, earthy, powdery)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooibos (Absolute: Leafy, vibrant, dark fruity, rooty)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMysore Sandalwood 1995 (EO: Woody, refined, creamy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrat Oud (EO: Woody, coppery, juicy, radiant)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMongolian Deer Musk (Maceration: Sweet, powdery, sparkling)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSweet Pea (Melange: Sweet, floral, herbal)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmbergris (Absolute: Creamy, powdery, clean)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOsmanthus (Absolute: Sweet, floral, airy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoronia (Absolute: Sweet, honeyed, floral)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViolet leaf (Absolute: Rooty, vegetal, earthy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMimosa (Absolute: Sweet, creamy, light floral)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCivet (Absolute: Creamy, animalic, waxy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGnidia (Absolute: Malty, floral, sweet)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackcurrant (Co2: Fruity, dark,, juicy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeeswax (Absolute: Creamy, malty, sweet)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJasmine Sambac (Co2: Juicy, floral, bright) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mellifluence Perfume","offers":[{"title":"3ml","offer_id":45734188056762,"sku":null,"price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1ml","offer_id":45734188089530,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0581\/1876\/6778\/files\/435Illyria.jpg?v=1774461774","url":"https:\/\/allthatsscents.com\/products\/illyria","provider":"allthatsscents","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
