This is a bloody masterpiece. I own over 150 fragrances and three were the top three above all: Dionysus by Tiziana Terenzi, Blazing of Mr. Sam by Penhaligon, and Creed Aventus. Well, now there are four. Simple, direct, hypnotic, elegant and sexy. With just three ingredients, a bloody masterpiece by Alberto Morillas. Like the ones mentioned before, for my taste and subconscious, it’s orgasmic. A fragrance for life.
As with unisex fragrances, I tested this on myself and my partner to see differences on male and female skin. Blessed Baraka stands out for its sandalwood. It smells linear and smoky on me. On a man, it’s very sexy and I think it suits him better; on me, I perceive it as less deep and smoky, though I still like it. It has very perceptible sillage and lasts over 10 hours. If you’re a man, it’s a perfume to rule the room. Scent 9/10 Longevity 10/10 Sillage 9/10 Value 7/10 Versatility 7/10 Packaging 8/10 Would I buy it again? For sure, to gift to my partner.
A sweet ambered sandalwood scent; over time the sweetness increases until it smells like white sugar, like putting your nose in the sugar jar or the scent of water with sugar (one of my favourite fresh scents from childhood, hehe). It’s not a bad thing, just my interpretation. I’m not a fan of very sweet scents, but this is tempting. Greetings from Costa Rica.
A tremendous perfume, quality beyond doubt. However, in the opening, I swear none of the listed notes are the real deal. It felt like an oud bomb, of very good quality, soft and not strident, but there it is. Yes, over time it becomes sweeter and the amber and sandalwood become more noticeable. Nevertheless, the oud note remains present throughout its entire life, which is no small feat.
Blessed Baraka is exquisite: a sandalwood so creamy it smells like vanilla, yet its mystical woody essence shines through, giving it a charmingly masculine touch, plus that wonderful animal accord. The combination takes your breath away… It’s sexy, even sexual, like an animal in heat. Oh my goodness! The bitter, rancid opening unfolds into something seductive and intoxicating. The dry-down is musky-woody. It has the DNA of Oud for Greatness, but that animal note gives a differentiating twist to its star sibling, granting it a unique personality. They are handsome and successful brothers, but Blessed Baraka prefers intense sex, with that wild flavour reminiscent of the animal nature of our species; human mammals, mating ritual: perfuming exquisitely and subtly since time immemorial.
A simple yet effective proposition. Pyramid: Musky-Amber-Woody. It evolves, which is good. It opens with sandalwood and rich amber, but lacks much personality. The real star is the work of the musks; that ‘sweetness’ is musky, not floral or gourmand, and dominates from the two-hour mark. It lasts a long time and has presence. The dry-down features sandalwood and amber (slightly burnt) but they integrate well into the musk blend. Scent 7/10 Longevity 9/10 Sillage 8/10 Value 5/10 Versatility 7/10 Packaging 8/10 I think people are influenced by the price. It’s well-constructed and performs well, but it doesn’t seem original enough and lacks character (perhaps for a unisex). Especially if it sells for 200-250€.
A very specific scent. I’m not sure whether to classify it as vanilla, amber, or rum. Ultimately, I categorised it as a soft, animalic leather: dry yet with sweet notes. It’s worth trying.
This fragrance smells bad to me; it has a blue cheese base that turns me off, I suppose due to a very animalic musk. It’s a pity because that immediate rejection doesn’t allow me to appreciate it. It represents a pure and hard-nosed niche, challenging and unconventional, on the opposite side of what usual commercial fragrances offer.
Blessed Baraka belongs to the Absolutes line on luck and energy. It uses an amber not just as a warm base but as a fixative, intertwined with a velvety sandalwood to create a synthetically intoxicating handbook with musk, vanilla, and flowers. It starts with a digestible animal touch, rich in terpenes, to dry down into a sweet-and-sour, addictive musky-amber elixir. It’s a perfume that cross-dresses according to the climate, time, and skin, shifting from unisex to masculine.
Blessed Baraka comes from the Absolutes line: luck, power, and energy. Nowadays, many perfumes use amber notes not just for warmth and wood, but as a fixative and balancer. Morillas follows this line but blends it with creamy, velvety sandalwood to create a synthetically intoxicating all-in-one guide that includes musk, vanilla, and white flowers. It opens with a slightly animalic touch (one of the most digestible I’ve tried), full of terpenes and essences, before slowly drying down into that musky, amber elixir, leaving a sweet-and-sour, addictive sensation. It’s a perfume that changes with the weather, the time of day, and your skin’s condition: sometimes it opens up, other times it calms down. It shifts from unisex to masculine depending on the moment.
I’m a fan of Initio; I have several and have almost tried them all; it’s my favourite house for achieving the perfect balance between niche and designer, although Parfums de Marly has never convinced me. Their fragrances are unique, of extremely high quality, and very intoxicating, almost works of art like Side Effect or Oud for Greatness. Blessed Baraka is the only one I like but it doesn’t quite enchant me; it’s a challenge from the house, nothing complex or unpleasant, very masculine with a ‘beastly’ behaviour. It doesn’t remind me of Carlisle or Grand Soir, only sharing the amber touch. The musk and sandalwood make it sharp, creamy, and quite animal, even sexual. It’s not my total favourite, but it’s a very recommendable great perfume. 8/10. Edit March 2023: the musk smells very animalic, sticking to the nose, and in the dry down, whereas in the air it is sweet, creamy, and with a clean aura. It’s sensual, ideal for intimate dates, and although it’s not easy to wear, it’s enjoyable if understood well. Initio always guarantees something unique with great longevity.
I tried this fragrance and honestly, it smells like Carlisle by PDM but with steroids. It’s a potent scent with excellent longevity; you don’t need more than 3 sprays… those three notes from the description are noticeable, along with that typical Initio base of oud. The quality is very evident, and in an outing with a polluted environment, whether in a bar or at events, it comes across as impressive.
Blessed Baraka is a fine jewel, complex, and with an irresistible charismatic glow. It’s not for everyone, but for strong souls that catalyse gazes: a woody oriental with character, where white jasmine intertwines with musks, woods, and amber. Once you smell it, it seduces and marks you. It’s opulent, mysterious, and sophisticated, addictive due to its duality: sweet, almost gourmand, yet spicy. It begins with sweet musk, though I briefly note tobacco and fruit in the opening, notes not listed. Besides the musk, a strong woody note emerges that magically transforms into a creamy, voluptuous sandalwood, wrapped in a sensual cascade of musks and the omnipresent amber. The base leaves a sweet-and-sour trail that captivates. Later, the musk and sandalwood gain strength, with vanilla added to make it even sweeter, softer, and powdery. Over time, I perceive oud and spices, especially saffron. The sandalwood and vanilla sweetness endure, with a touch of musk. That sensation of fruit and tobacco sticks with me. With just five sprays, you envelop yourself in a bubble that lasts hours on the skin and longer on clothes; its persistence is notable, around ten hours, so don’t worry about it disappearing. For me, its strong and pleasant presence makes it ideal for going out at night, especially at special events. During the day, it works better with cold weather, such as in autumn and winter. It’s expensive, but it doesn’t deceive you with false promises that fade; it embraces you, doesn’t let go, blends with your skin, and makes your eyes shine.
On my skin, it has a tremendously fierce opening, as if I’d slept with a sexy, sweaty man and that aroma remained on me, becoming overwhelming and completely negating my femininity. Afterwards, it calms down and a slight woody sweetness is perceived, and that’s the entire development of the perfume on my skin. I sold the vial because I clearly found it masculine, very masculine, and animalic.
I tried it and didn’t like it at all. It smells exactly like Club de Nuit Intense but less potent, and it’s a scent that gives me a headache and makes me feel unwell.
This perfume is addictive; I smelled it on blotter at the Initio store and loved it, so I decided to try it on my skin and couldn’t stop smelling it all day. It reminds me a lot of Oajan by PDM but with that special Initio touch. It’s simple yet complex at the same time; simply spectacular.
Look, it sounds a bit unprofessional (and I’m not a pro at anything), but Blessed Baraka smells to me like that dinosaur gummy I used to have as a child, haha. Beyond my childhood memories, it’s impossible to break down the notes; everything is so well-blended it doesn’t separate. I’d describe it as fierce, carnal, playful, slightly spiced, powdery, sweet, with real vanilla, animalistic yet clean. It’s a unique scent, without siblings, to make you stand out and mark a difference. When applied, you create a bubble of sex-appeal, of an alpha male who dominates; it smells of success. I find it extremely sexy on a man, full of masculine energy. Performance: that bubble lasts a beastly 6 hours; you’ll smell it and others will smell it strongly. After that time, the intensity drops as if the bubble has burst, but on the skin, it lingers calmly for over 10 hours. I’m an unconditional fan of Initio; there isn’t a single perfume from the house I don’t love; it’s my favourite brand and everything they launch is guaranteed success. I’ve tried them all, and although I don’t have the complete collection, most have passed. My personal ranking: 1. Side effect 2. Adictive Vibration 3. Musk Therapy 4. Blessed Baraka 5. Rehab 6. High frequency 7. Psychedelic love 8. Mystic experience 9. Paragon 10. Absolut Aphrodisiac 11. Oud for Greatness 12. Oud for Happiness.
Right, this sounds a bit unprofessional (luckily I’m not), but to me, Blessed Baraka smells like a scented gummy I had as a child shaped like a dinosaur egg. Haha. Beyond those memories, describing it is difficult. I can’t break down the notes as I usually do with other perfumes; they’re all so well-blended that I can’t separate them. Let me try another approach: for me, it’s a fierce, carnal, playful, slightly tipsy, powdery, sweet scent. The vanilla is definitely noticeable; it’s animalic but clean. It’s a scent without siblings, nothing compares to it. It’s a fragrance to make yourself noticed, to stand out. When you spray it, you create a bubble of sex appeal, an alpha male dominating his surroundings, smelling of success. I find it extremely sexy on a man, full of masculine energy. In terms of performance, that bubble lasts about six hours. You’ll smell it and others will smell it beastly during that time. After that, the intensity drops, as if the bubble bursts, but on your skin it lingers calmly for over ten hours. Addendum: I’m an unconditional fan of Inicio. There isn’t a single perfume from this house I don’t love. It’s my favourite house and everything they do is a guaranteed success. There’s no other brand I like all of their perfumes from. I’ve tried them all, and although I don’t own every bottle, most have passed through here. My personal ranking: 1. Side Effect 2. Addictive Vibration 3. Musk Therapy 4. Blessed Baraka 5. Rehab 6. High Frequency 7. Psychedelic Love 8. Mystic Experience 9. Paragon 10. Absolut Aphrodisiac 11. Oud for Greatness 12. Oud for Happiness
It’s not easy to define, but it is certainly different. It evolves very little; rather, it’s a sweet amber with a gummy candy twist, spiced, musky, and dark vanilla. It smells great and has a sexy edge, but the sweet phases overwhelm me. I’m left with mixed feelings, though I think I should keep testing it as my decant is running out. I sense some powdery white flowers, though that’s conjecture, and absolutely no talc. It leaves me torn and back on the wishlist: I don’t reject it; it has appeal. Performance is correct without projecting much. Ideal for cold weather and varied uses. Unisex.
