L'Art de la Guerre

by Vanina Muracciole

Jovoy Paris L'Art de la Guerre is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Vanina Muracciole. L'Art de la Guerre opens with Apple, Rhubarb, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Lavender, Immortelle, Violet Leaf, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Leather, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Jovoy Paris's L'Art de la Guerre carries an Acquired verdict, a leather-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, a divisive beast that some adore for its unique blend of sweet and savoury, while others find it a "musty, dusty" assault on the senses. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Its strong projection and unique, sometimes challenging, profile make it less ideal for the office. However, its sophisticated and bold character, particularly the prominent leather and earthy notes, suits date nights and other formal or casual evening events well, as long as it aligns with the wearer's style.

About

L'Art de la Guerre opens with a sharp, almost vegetal hit of rhubarb and green apple, invigorating and unusual. This bold fruity start quickly mellows into a heart of aromatic lavender and warm nutmeg, underscored by a surprising, honeyed immortelle. The drydown reveals a rugged leather and earthy oakmoss base, softened by creamy sandalwood and patchouli, creating a complex and intriguing skin scent that lingers for ages.
