About this deal

As the name suggests, Absolute Aphrodisiac is part of the Absolute collection. But does it live up to its name? Absolute Aphrodisiac is more suited for the mature 25-up crowd and best worn in cool weather: fall & winter (avoid use in the high heat).

Absolute Aphrodisiac will wow you. 30% of the population can't smell musk but can subconsciously feel the attractive effects it has. Initio have done a beautiful job of creating an alluring perfume that isn’t overpowering or garish. It has just the right amount of everything to create a signature so unique that it will become your secret seduction weapon. A little goes a LONG way… so, be careful not to overspray… 2 sprays MAX and you’re set for about 6–8 plus hours! Eva Carlo, in-house perfume expert at The Orange Square Company, notes that when it comes to aphrodisiac scents, we tend to turn to notes found in the floral and animal world. “Ambergris and musks both give deep sensuality as well as second-to-none longevity,” she explains. "Mother nature created flowers to seduce for the act of reproduction (pollination) and as Canadian beavers do not mind eating coniferous trees. Partly for this reason, castoreum from Russia always has a tar-creosote aspect, and castoreum from Canada has galbanum-coniferous nuances.OfG is a mature scent more suited for the 25-up. Listed as unisex (but leans masculine) and best for fall, winter and cool spring nights. When it first opens it has a slight similarity to the fragrance Spicebomb by Viktor & Rolf (except Rehab is smoother, richer, and far superior smelling). This is part of the brands Carnal Blends collection, and with a name like “Psychedelic Love,” you’re probably wondering… humans, we have taken advantage of this effect for millennia. For example, jasmine, tuberose and Atlantic ylang ylang are heady, intoxicating and fully charged with erotic nuances." What should you look for in an aphrodisiac perfume?

Rehab doesn’t scream out for attention. It projects within arm’s length for the first 1 to 1.5 hours, then becomes more subtle, creating a nice personal scent bubble around you. As the name suggests, this is a (unisex) rose based scent and contains a blend of natural Bulgarian rose and natural Turkish rose. Don’t be put off by the name of this fragrance. This is NOT one of those traditional skanky animalic type of oud scents. This is a sophisticated, well put together scent that contains natural Indian oud oil.Psychedelic Love is more suited for the mature 20-up crowd and performs great all year (except in the high summer heat and/or humid locations). Later, we can also find it in much more modest quantities in Cabochar Gres, Aramis, Knize Ten, YSL Kouros, YSL Opium, Caron Yatagan, Paloma Picasso, Chanel Antaeus. It’s warm, sweet (but not too sweet), sexy and inviting. And attracts a LOT of positive attention. (Not complaining!)

In 1930-es, one synthetic perfume base with only 2,5% of castoreum was popular, the rest of the formula was composed of anisyl acetate, bornyl acetate, para-cresol, methyl acetate, birch tar essential oil and other compounds.Blessed Baraka opens with a sweet fruity spicy leather vibe mixed with some rich creamy sandalwood and warm amber. Top notes are fleeting and are only for you – think of them as the finishing touch to your glamour ritual or a little magic dust that gives you a feeling of joy and empowerment,” highlights Eva. “It’s really the heart and base notes you want to focus on to cast a spell on all around you. You may well not perceive them but others will.” The fragrances come in beautiful bottles that have a soft rubber-like texture coating, adhered with their logo on the front (the name of each fragrance is engraved on the top of the cap). The brand’s name and name of the scent are engraved on the top of the cap. Now, as it dries down… some creamy vanilla and cinnamon morph with the rum and tobacco to leave you with a gorgeous smooth creamy sweet boozy tobacco scent. Dark, Rich & Sexy Sweet

Besides phenols, acetophenone, benzyl alcohol, benzoic acid, borneol and traces of ammonia are important components of the castoreum odor, all these substances were discovered in the first half of the 20th century. The scent of castoreum depends on the beaver diet. Bevears are vegans, they eat tree bark and tree shootings. European beavers prefer birch, aspen, willow, poplar, and some herbaceous plants, like water lilies, cattail, reed. As I have already mentioned, a smell of castoreum is usually associated with classic chypre perfumes like Chanel Cuir de Russie by Ernest Beaux, or Pierre Balmain Jolie Madame by Germaine Cellier.

Blessed Baraka is completely unisex and more suited for the mature 25-up. This is a bold scent and is best worn in the cooler weather: fall/winter. Now, the star of the show is the rose, and as it dries down it’s joined with a hint of vanilla that leaves you with a beautiful fresh sweet peppery citrusy rose.
