The aroma of the week: JAR - Bolt of Lightning

 The most expensive scent of perfume and jewelry collection Arthur Rosenthal, a self-taught perfumer, just could not be absolutely clear and simple. He could not sound dilution and because it sounds like a fragrant supersaturated solution from which is about to begin to crystallize gems. 520 euros for 30 ml, though in a bottle of Baccarat - price oblige.

And the image of lightning instead of the flavor also adds mystery.

JAR fragrances can only be purchased in two boutiques - in Paris and New York. In Paris boutique you surround gray-purple velor upholstery - as if you were in a box for jewelry. The consultant will tell you that "lightning strike" was the first fragrance of the seven established by Arthur immediately after perfumery school in Grasse, and podneset glass jar with a chamois soaked aroma to your nose. Breathe careful: all the flavors of different incontinence, and starting his notes staggering volume, literally demolished everything in its path. But seven flavors - and best to try them one by one every day than all seven at a time.

White cloud over the bright green meadow in June. Meadow - a fresh and piercing green chord with some fruit and berry sour and green nuances, unlike what you've heard before. Above him rich and even suffocating cloud of coumarin originating most of mown hay with clover, wormwood, bison than exotic tonka bean. After half an hour on the skin remains flower heart, surrounded by green meadows herbs: tuberose and lily white - the same drug from which the next morning headache. In short, this fragrance intoxication. Forgotten in the heady scent of a haystack with dope, grass. Or blissful fatigue puppy was startled by a meadow of sunbeams. Or heavy smell of wet summer field under the sun, exuding evaporation, which is difficult to breathe and breathe - just before the new storm.

Or this: the triumphant premiere, applause, shouts of "Bravo! "And an armful of lilies. And then the celebration in the dressing room of the prima donna, littered with bouquets, with continuous thanksgiving toast and champagne. And the pleasant fatigue of success ...

We can assume that Arthur Rosenthal created a "lightning" as an arrangement of one note - the absolute Hay, one of the most expensive French perfume components. Because there is no flavor of traditional architecture "head-heart-tail", all the components of sound at once and at the same time, obeying natural laws, not intentions perfumer. JAR general impression of the brand, which boasts more expensive ingredients used, rather than the art of the perfumer-creator, necessary in order to accommodate them amounts to light a work of art.
