Released in \u003cstrong\u003e2019\u003c\/strong\u003e, it is \u003cstrong\u003ethe house's highest-rated creation\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Thai house where the founder is also the perfumer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBortnikoff is based in Thailand\u003c\/strong\u003e, in the very heart of the agarwood-producing regions. It was founded by \u003cstrong\u003eDmitry Bortnikov\u003c\/strong\u003e, a Russian perfumer who is both the owner and the nose of his brand, and who works with \u003cstrong\u003ewild Thai ouds\u003c\/strong\u003e by sourcing his materials at the source. He uses genuine animal materials — civet, castoreum, deer musk, hyraceum. The catalog is divided into four lines: \u003cstrong\u003eEntry Level, Main Collection, Colognes and Attars\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003e50 ml\u003c\/strong\u003e bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of magnolia and frangipani\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo white flowers open the perfume, and nothing else: the \u003cstrong\u003emagnolia\u003c\/strong\u003e, lemony and transparent, and the \u003cstrong\u003efrangipani\u003c\/strong\u003e, thicker, milky and solar. No citrus, no fresh notes — we go straight into the flower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of two roses, cinnamon and tobacco\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMay rose\u003c\/strong\u003e, green and honeyed, and the \u003cstrong\u003eHimalayan rose\u003c\/strong\u003e, spicier, complement each other. The \u003cstrong\u003ecinnamon\u003c\/strong\u003e warms them and the \u003cstrong\u003etobacco\u003c\/strong\u003e brings its dried honey and leaf dust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of two ouds, cacao and animal materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMerauke oud\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eOud Co Chang\u003c\/strong\u003e establish the agarwood. The \u003cstrong\u003ecacao\u003c\/strong\u003e places a powdery bitterness on it, the \u003cstrong\u003ecivet\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003ecastoreum\u003c\/strong\u003e a frank animalic, the \u003cstrong\u003elabdanum\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003evanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e the resinous sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house's signature\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot a single citrus fruit in the entire formula.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is extremely rare. Perfumery almost always opens with hesperidics, because they are volatile and give an immediate start. Oud Monarch begins with \u003cstrong\u003etwo thick white flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e — magnolia and frangipani — and therefore offers no transition: the perfume is already dense at the first second and will remain so. The trajectory is entirely downward: from flowers to roses, from roses to tobacco, then wood, cacao and animal. The \u003cstrong\u003ecacao\u003c\/strong\u003e placed in the middle of the civet and castoreum is the other singularity — its powdery bitterness is what prevents the base from becoming merely wild.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFloral, woody and gourmand, this extract is aimed at those who love dark grand florals and animal bases. It gives its best in winter, in the evening, worn equally well by women as by men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith \u003cstrong\u003eOud Monarch Bortnikoff\u003c\/strong\u003e, Dmitry Bortnikov signs the most appreciated creation of his house.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BORTNIKOFF","offers":[{"title":"50 ml","offer_id":58454222536968,"sku":"PROD-001125","price":345.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/oud-monarch-bortnikoff-50ml-1_fedde78f-2e9e-4978-af53-1e7efcb0d04e.png?v=1786967059","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/oud-monarch-bortnikoff","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
