Safran Troublant by L’Artisan Parfumeur is a scent that was recommended to me by so many people at different times and contexts – when people say that I love rose scents, and when they saw that I’m having a moment with Rooh Afza, a rose-flavoured syrup from my childhood. Also, saffron which makes a frequent appearance in my life, just lends itself to my scent memories. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Safran Troublant smells like Ras Malai – that milky refreshing Indian dessert – except Safran Troublant is warm and comforting. It’s the perfect fragrance for the end of the day because of its coziness. Rose, Saffron, creamy lactonic notes, and a bit of sweetness. It’s gourmande without being cloying.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
People have said that this disappears on them – it doesn’t on me. It doesn’t have great sillage or projection, but it does last and last. It just changes, and I have to say that Saffran Troublant has the longest transformation time of any of my perfumes. I smells like itself for a full 8 hours, but then after that it turns into a creamy sandalwood, so milky that it reminds you of dessert. This makes it the perfect cold-weather scent, particularly for a chilly spring day. You get that rose saffron combo during the day but at night, you go to bed in the cozy embrace of sandalwood. What could be better?
