Atardecer

Atardecer by Navitus Parfums

Atardecer, meaning sunset in Spanish, is a show-stopping unique fragrance: opening with green fig and violet leaves and Mexican tuberose, the fragrance develops into the heart with a Oud trifecta using Laotian Oud, Bangladeshi Oud and Indian Oud followed by a cool and mineral accord of wet earth, smoke, leather and cedar. The base of the fragrance warms up with Papantla vanilla, Chapas coffee, Veracruz tobacco and oakmoss. Crafted by master perfumer Christian Carbonnel with creative direction from Eduardo Garcia de Alba from MyScentJourney. Inspiration: March 1997. Walking through the forest, the sky begins to rumble and turn gray.

We look for shelter. In the distance, a cave on the side of the mountain. Upon entering, we are greeted by a cold and mineral scent of rock and millennia. We see the rain falling from inside as if we were admiring it from a window. An aroma of wet earth invades the senses.

I start a fire to prepare some coffee. My jacket gives off traces of my favorite perfume of leather and violet leaves that, due to use, has been impregnated for life in it. I search in my backpack for a Havana cigar that I had been saving for a special moment, I light it and the smoke mixes with the strong and intoxicating perfume of tuberose that she carries. We sit on the ground with our backs resting on the rock and we prepare to wait for the rain to pass while we watch the beginning of the sunset.
