Liquides Imaginaires Fortis, Sample
Fortis by Les Liquides Imaginaires is an Oriental Woody fragrance for both women and men, a compelling creation crafted by perfumer Sonia Constant. Launched in 2011, this fragrance unfolds with the rich, exotic aroma of Oud, which is both dark and resinous, setting the stage for a journey through a mystical forest. The opening is spiced with the warm, slightly animalic touch of cumin and the golden glow of saffron, each note adding an intricate layer of intrigue. Cypriol oil or Nagarmotha adds an earthy, smoky depth that whispers tales of distant lands.
As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals the smoky richness of guaiac wood, harmonised with the green, earthy tones of vetiver. Cedar lends a crisp, woody freshness, while amyris introduces a subtle sweetness, together weaving a tapestry of warm, comforting notes. This heart is a place of balance, where the intensity of the spices mellows into something deeply inviting.
In the base, sandalwood provides a creamy, soft texture, enveloping the senses in warmth. Vanilla adds a gentle sweetness, balanced by the rich, earthy character of patchouli. Musk and ambergris create a sensual, lingering finish, leaving a trace of mystery and allure. This fragrance from the creative French house is an olfactory experience that resonates with depth and sophistication, captivating the senses with its luxurious complexity.
