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, sourcing his materials at the source. The catalog is divided into four lines: \u003cstrong\u003eEntry Level, Main Collection, Colognes, and Attars\u003c\/strong\u003e.

An entry point into the house, at a more accessible price. All in \u003cstrong\u003eperfume extract, 50 ml bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of bergamot and honey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBergamot\u003c\/strong\u003e opens bright and slightly bitter, and \u003cstrong\u003ehoney\u003c\/strong\u003e arrives immediately behind: thick, waxy, slightly animalic. Only two materials, and the theme is set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of jasmine, iris, benzoin, ylang-ylang, and oud\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJasmine\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eylang-ylang\u003c\/strong\u003e open a white and sunny bouquet, while \u003cstrong\u003eiris\u003c\/strong\u003e adds its cool powder and \u003cstrong\u003ebenzoin\u003c\/strong\u003e its vanilla resin. In the middle, \u003cstrong\u003eoud\u003c\/strong\u003e — placed in the heart rather than at the base, making it immediately noticeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of vanilla, amber, musk, and sandalwood\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eamber\u003c\/strong\u003e prolong the warmth, \u003cstrong\u003esandalwood\u003c\/strong\u003e rounds it out with creaminess, and \u003cstrong\u003emusk\u003c\/strong\u003e settles it on the skin. The trail is soft, long, and draws closer to the body as the hours pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house's signature touch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoney in the top notes, which is rarely done.\u003c\/strong\u003e Honey is a heavy, thick, and slow material: perfumery almost always reserves it for the base, where it has time to unfold. Here it opens the fragrance, right behind a bergamot, and imposes its waxy texture from the very first second. \u003cstrong\u003eOud\u003c\/strong\u003e follows the same inverse logic: placed in the \u003cstrong\u003eheart\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than at the base, it reveals itself instead of waiting its turn. This double inversion is what makes the fragrance immediately noticeable — exactly the purpose of the Entry Level collection. It is also \u003cstrong\u003ethe only one of the four Entry Level fragrances to contain oud\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the one that generated the most buzz in Dubai: according to Dmitry Bortnikov, it was the new release that visitors to the show bought first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmber, floral, and gourmand, this extract is for those who want to discover oud through sweetness rather than smoke. It gives its best from autumn to winter, by day as well as by night, and is equally suitable for women and men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith \u003cstrong\u003eSpanish Honey Bortnikoff\u003c\/strong\u003e, Christian Carbonnel and Dmitry Bortnikov present honey in the opening and oud in full light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BORTNIKOFF","offers":[{"title":"50 ml","offer_id":58454193209608,"sku":"PROD-001265","price":210.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/spanish-honey-bortnikoff-50ml-1_e661d771-bb78-4ce8-94cf-b9814a1657dc.png?v=1786967028","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/spanish-honey-bortnikoff","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
