Artemus Saffron Unisex Fragrance

Fragrances built around deep, earthy materials almost always save them for last; this one leads with them instead. Patchouli and a damascene rose accord lead the top together for an earthy quality most compositions save for much later, and caramel and vanilla sweeten things considerably through the heart. By the time amber and white musk take hold in the base, Artemus Saffron has landed somewhere comparatively simple after such an unusual start. Oriental gourmand fits well here, structured for cooler weather and evening occasions rather than a bright daytime spray. Artemus Saffron Unisex Fragrance works for dinners, later gatherings and any setting where a warmer, sweeter fragrance feels appropriate, and its unisex construction keeps it from being tied to one side of a fragrance cabinet. Fall and winter suit it well, letting the caramel and amber carry noticeable weight against the cold. Despite the name, saffron itself isn't among the actual listed notes, which makes the title more of a mood descriptor than a literal ingredient claim. Structurally, leading with patchouli rather than ending on it is the most distinctive choice Artemus made here.
