Our verdict on 02 L'Air du Desert Marocain: Acquired

This is a masterpiece, an audacious journey into a dry, spicy desert that evokes strong reactions. It's truly polarising - either you'll be transported to ancient lands and fall head over heels, or you'll be reaching for a scrubber. Don't blind buy, but definitely experience it.

Given its strong projection and long-lasting nature, plus its distinctly exotic and potent character, this isn't an office-friendly scent. It excels in intimate, special settings like dates or formal events where its unique profile can be appreciated, especially during cooler seasons. Its 'night perfume' vibe and evocative nature make it unsuitable for everyday casual wear or sport.

About

L'Air du Desert Marocain opens with a pungent, aromatic burst of cumin and coriander, softened subtly by lavender. This quickly transitions into a dry, woody heart where earthy vetiver and a distinct labdanum take centre stage, evolving gradually into a warm, ambery embrace. Cedar, patchouli, and oakmoss ground the fragrance, conjuring images of ancient wood and sunbaked earth, with a surprising underlying sweetness that prevents it from becoming too harsh. It’s a complex, ever-shifting dry amber.
