Our verdict on The Artist No.1: Acquired

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a 'generational wealth' rose-patchouli masterpiece; for others, it's straight-up dill pickle juice. Try before you buy, but expect compliments if it works for you.

About

The Artist No.1 opens with a distinctly natural rose, swiftly joined by a complex, warm spice accord. Blackcurrant and raspberry add a touch of dark fruitiness, preventing the rose from becoming too sharp. As it dries, rich patchouli, earthy sandalwood, and mystical frankincense create a deep, woody, and subtly balsamic base, lending an air of enduring mystery.
