Chypre Charnel
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper marmite fragrance - you'll either love its intensely soapy, classic chypre character or find it utterly archaic. Don't go in expecting sweet pomegranate; this is an aldehydic, oakmoss-heavy statement that commands attention. Distinctly old-world, polarising, but undeniably grand.
Chypre Charnel splits opinion: some hail it as a masterclass in modern chypre, sophisticated and sensual, while others find its fruitiness too prominent, missing the genre's classic bite and smelling 'pestilential'. It's certainly a grown-up take on fruity chypres, but not for everyone.
