Carlisle

Description

Carlisle, created by the talented perfumer Quentin Bisch, is a fragrance that captures the essence of luxury and sophistication, originally crafted as an exclusive for Harrod’s. This sensual and alluring scent is beautifully housed in an elegant black flacon, embodying the highest standards of quality and presentation that Parfums de Marly is renowned for.

The fragrance commences with a vibrant and spicy start featuring green apple and nutmeg. The crisp, tartness of the green apple provides a fresh, lively opening that immediately captures the senses. Nutmeg complements this with its warm, spicy aroma, adding depth and a slightly sweet, woody undertone that transitions smoothly into the heart of the fragrance.

At the core of Carlisle, the scent unfolds into a rich floral tapestry with notes of osmanthus, davana, and rose. Osmanthus brings a unique, apricot-like sweetness with a leathery backdrop, while davana offers a fruity, slightly herbaceous aroma that enhances the composition’s complexity. The rose, timeless in its beauty, adds a touch of classic floral elegance, deepening the heart with its lush, romantic scent.

The base of the fragrance is where Carlisle truly resonates with warmth and richness. Here, vanilla, dark patchouli, and opoponax create a balsamic, soft bed that grounds the fragrance. Vanilla adds a creamy, sweet layer that contrasts beautifully with the earthy, rich depth of patchouli. Opoponax, with its sweet, balsamic, and resinous quality, provides a soothing finish that enhances the base’s comforting warmth.
