Sagesse de Salomon

Sagesse de Salomon from the French house Reine de Saba, composed by Carlos Benaïm and released in 2022, is a suede-soft aromatic amber. People describe it as woody, floral, resinous, aromatic, ambery and citrusy all at once, which gives a fair idea of how many facets it has.

Mandarin and red berries give the opening a juicy, slightly tart brightness, and juniper berries a dry, gin-like bite. Lavender adds a clean, herbal, aromatic quality. The heart is iris, cool and powdery, set against suede, which brings a soft, warm, velvety texture. The base is warm and radiant: labdanum gives a rich, resinous amber, cashmeran a dry, musky, slightly spicy woodiness, and Amber Xtreme a powerful, mineral, long-lasting amber glow that carries the scent.

Sagesse de Salomon is worn by anyone. Its warm, polished character suits autumn and winter and evening wear, and it should appeal to someone who likes iris and suede with a modern amber behind them.
