Step into the realm of Swiss perfume excellence as Parfum Exquis is delighted to introduce the esteemed brand, Mizensir, to the Canadian market. Conceptualized by Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas, Mizensir exemplifies subtle luxury, curating a distinctive array of creations that make for the perfect timeless gifts. We are excited to showcase five exceptional fragrances from the brand, each narrating its own unique tale.
Parfum Exquis takes immense pride in being the first store in Canada to offer Mizensir's remarkable line of products. Mizensir's perfumes carry a distinct signature - an embodiment of quiet affluence. They make their presence known without overwhelming, leaving a lasting impression on the skin without being overpowering. It's an elegant expression of scent, softly announcing itself yet maintaining a certain air of intrigue.
For Your Love
Crafted by the maestro Alberto Morillas, this fragrance is a triumph of perfumery, straddling the line between refinement and eroticism. Its complexity is something to be savored, an intoxicating dance of sensual musk, exclusive raspberry, and a hint of patchouli that lingers on the skin, creating an indelible imprint. As the scent dries down, the patchouli begins to steal the show, unfurling like a classic melody that anchors the potent fruitiness of the raspberry. This fragrance journey was a rollercoaster of sensory delight, certainly unlike any other I've experienced.
"For Your Love" is a testament to the power of love, an olfactory tapestry that captures the essence of passion and desire. It’s a match made in heaven for those who appreciate the interplay of tart, fruity notes with an underlying sensuality. For lovers of raspberry notes in fragrances, this is an absolute must-try - it offers the best raspberry experience I've ever encountered. As the scent seeps into my skin and envelops me, I feel a sense of empowerment, a reminder that I need no prince by my side to feel like a princess. The scent is a beautiful paradox - complex yet straightforward, refined yet raw, and above all, unabashedly erotic.
Sweet Praline
Diving into the world of "Sweet Praline" is like stepping into a lavish Parisian patisserie, a place of indulgence and comfort. This delightfully gourmand fragrance presents an enticing blend of sweet praline, fresh apple, creamy vanilla, and warming cinnamon. But don't be fooled by its name; this fragrance is not overwhelmingly saccharine or nutty. Instead, it manifests as a well-blended, sophisticated, and clean-smelling fruity musk scent. It's like a dusting of icing sugar over a subtly sweet ambroxan core, punctuated with a touch of juicy raspberry. There's a certain adult sophistication to it, a comforting aura that reminds me of the softness of baby powder.
I've been exploring the niche fragrance world since the end of 2022, and it's been an incredible journey of discovery. Each scent is a unique experience - some are merely pleasant, some are downright orgasmic, while others can be jarring. "Sweet Praline", however, sparked an instant connection. From the moment I took in its scent, I was overwhelmed with a sense of happiness. It's as if this fragrance was crafted just for me, to the point where I've adopted it as my signature scent. It's a fragrance that's not for everyone, and I'm not claiming it's the best scent in the world. But when you stumble upon a fragrance that brings you such joy, you can't help but hold onto it. Its powdery, sweet, ethereal, and soft character aligns perfectly with my preferences, making it an ideal everyday scent, whether for work or home.
Ambre Magique
Like witnessing the mesmerizing spectacle of an amber sunset, "Ambre Magique" enchants with its warm and earthy tones. It's a fragrance steeped in the intoxicating richness of amber and a subtle undertone of patchouli, creating a magical aura that is at once mysterious and inviting. This scent is tailored for those who are drawn to the mystical and the mesmerizing, the enigmatic dance of dusk.
To my nose, "Ambre Magique" is a sensual dance of amber and vanilla. The fragrance entices with its straightforward yet satisfyingly rich character. From the first encounter, I fell in love with its gourmand elements – the sweet spiciness of cardamom intertwined with creamy vanilla and dreamy amber. The result is a scent that is creamy, cozy, warm, and inviting. It's a fragrance that demands a place in my collection.
Interestingly, I perceive this scent as a near-perfect balance of vanilla and amber, with perhaps a hint of sandalwood. If I focus, I can detect a whisper of rose, but as I'm not a rose enthusiast, I prefer to relish the simple, ambery sweetness of this fragrance. While I do enjoy it, I find it's missing a certain spark that would make me reach for it instinctively. That said, its straightforward nature makes it an excellent candidate for layering, providing a robust base upon which other scents can unfold.
Perfect Oud
As its name suggests, "Perfect Oud" is an homage to the mesmerizing allure of oud, that tantalizing ingredient with a storied history in perfumery. This fragrance manages to bottle the exotic essence of the East, marrying the rich, woody undertones of oud with sweet honeyed accents and a smoky, incense-like backdrop. It is a bold and adventurous scent, meant for those unafraid to make a statement, to stand out in a crowd.
What's truly intriguing about this oud is its surprising transparency and airiness. It's a musky composition that leans towards the feminine, making it stand out in the world of oud-centric fragrances. The dry down introduces a hint of the typical smoky notes, but in a clean, subtle manner that never overwhelms.
In the hands of Alberto Morillas, this fragrance, like all his creations, exhibits a kind of lightness—not in terms of longevity or projection, but in its luminosity. There's a unique radiance to "Perfect Oud" that I find irresistible. As a fan of Morillas's work, I find this to be a unique interpretation of oud, elevated by his touch of magic.
Tres Chere
Tres Chere by Mizensir is a fragrance that has recently become one of my personal favourite. From the moment I first time smelled it, I have found myself reaching for it almost daily, even with a diverse collection of enjoyable fragrances at my disposal. It has a unique addictive quality that makes it feel like a natural extension of me, suitable for all kinds of weather, locations and occasions.
Tres Chere is best described as a white floral vanilla, but it offers so much more than just that. It starts with a beautifully rounded, breath-taking note of orange blossom that is light and not indolic at all. The vanilla note, a translucent, lightly sweet bourbon variety, lies beneath the orange blossom, gradually surfacing to prominence as the perfume dries down. It's not your typical creamy, gourmand vanilla; it's more delicate and ethereal. You can detect the salty notes as a sort of sparkle that intermittently punctuates the vanilla, preventing it from becoming monotonous or heavy. As the scent progresses to its final stages, it beautifully warms up and mellows.
The best way to describe Tres Chere is to compare it to a soft, white button-down shirt – a timeless, easy-to-wear piece that you always want to have on. Its longevity is impressive on my skin and seems to last forever on clothing. The sillage is just right – not too overwhelming, yet noticeable enough to earn compliments. I absolutely adore this scent, and it's the closest thing to a signature scent that it may be. It's a light, slightly sweet, and airy fragrance that I find perfectly suitable for the fall, winter, and spring seasons.
Mizensir Discovery Set
In addition to these individual perfumes, we are also offering a Mizensir Discovery Set. This set features 1.5 ml samples of each of the five fragrances, packaged in a convenient sprayer. The Discovery Set is an excellent way to explore the range of Mizensir's perfumes, allowing you to experience each scent and find the one that resonates with you the most.
