Cherigan The Purple Bar is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2021. The Purple Bar opens with Davana, Candied Fruits, Orange, and Almond, settles into a heart of Cinnamon, Clove, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Cherigan's The Purple Bar carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a wonderfully complex, unique journey. For others, it's a cheap Christmas potpourri. You'll need to try it to see where you land - but be warned, opinion is sharply divided.

About

Imagine stepping into a dimly lit, opulent bar, where the air is thick with the scent of spiced confections and exotic resins. Candied fruits and bright orange burst forth, quickly settling into a warm, inviting heart of rich vanilla, resinous benzoin, and a generous dusting of cinnamon and clove. A boozy davana note mingles with earthy patchouli, creating a dark, intriguing depth, while a hint of almond adds a luxurious, gourmand twist. It's decadent and complex, a true sensory overload.
