Haltane is a 2021 launch from the Parfums de Marly collection. It is a woody, aromatic, Oud scent for Men, brought to you from the creative mind of Julien Sprecher, founder and Artistic Director of Parfums de Marly.
Review
This scent embodies masculine elegance and is perfect for the man who wants to be noticed. It can be sprayed liberally for an evening out, or lightly for a day at the office. It is comparable to Initio’s Oud for Happiness.
Inspiration
Haltane was created for the distinguished man who craves a sophisticated scent with a lightness to fit his changing mood and schedule. This is a bold fragrance for gentlemen of all generations.
Notes
This scent presents itself almost in reverse to its listed scent pyramid. You get the burst of Oud Wood first, blended with the warm essences of its base. Slowly the calmer heart notes take over, Agarwood coming in softer while maintaining the Oud vibe, then the spice of Saffron and crisp Cedar Wood. As this scent dries down, you get the lighter essences of Lavender and Clary Sage, and a hint of fresh Bergamot. The end result is a perfect balance of light and dark.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Lavender, Clary Sage
Heart Notes: Saffron, Cedarwood, Praline, Oud Wood
Base Notes: Patchouli, Vetiver, Musk, Leather, Natural Agarwood
