Description
Sammarco Alter Extrait de Parfum is a sensual scent balancing heavenly jasmine notes with delicate incense and amber laid out over a smooth, animalic base. The opening is an erotic display of jasmine Sambac absolute, which is fresh yet fleshy and feminine yet confidently carnal – ensuring Alter radiates the indolic richness of the natural flower itself. This uncomplicated arrangement is perfectly executed, displaying how effectively the beauty of pure white flowers can be rendered by simply focusing on high quality raw materials. Underneath Sammarco Alter perfumes sensual jasmine bouquet, a touch of rose adds subdued elegance while the sunshine warmth of yellow flowers peeks through in the form of mimosa.
A warm, resiny base of opoponax and myrrh forms a framework which supports Alter’s opulent florals. The base’s ambery arrangement gains extra depth thanks to the presence of civet – showcasing the mysterious, sometimes unpretty majesty of nature’s visceral botanics. It is often the brightest flowers that fill the nighttime with their seductive scents. Jasmine has always had a dark side and Alter is here to cast light on the shadowy world of this ancient and iconic blossom – beautifully blending the timelessness of nature’s beauty with avant-garde niche perfumery.
