About Desiderátum
Desiderátum by Smells Like Lulu: A Woody Floral Delight
Desiderátum is the new unisex fragrance from Smells Like Lulu, launched in 2024. Created by perfumer Alan Humberto Maldonado Navarro, it harmoniously combines the elegance of roses with the warmth of leather and oud.
The scent opens with a vibrant burst of Bulgarian and Turkish roses, lifted by fresh eucalyptus that lends a subtle camphoraceous edge. In the heart, osmanthus (fragrant olive) mingles with vanilla and saffron, producing a smooth, spicy accord. The base is built on leather, cedar, and oud wood, ensuring a rich and enduring dry-down.
Primary accords include woody, leather, floral, vanilla, rose, oud, warm spicy, fruity, camphor, and powdery nuances. This multifaceted composition evolves gracefully, revealing new dimensions as time passes.
Despite its opulence, Desiderátum remains balanced and adaptable, working well for both formal events and daily wear. Its sillage is moderate, and longevity lasts over eight hours, with a projection that encourages intimacy.
The rose, the star of the show, never overwhelms thanks to the contrasting eucalyptus and saffron. Leather and oud provide sophistication, while vanilla and osmanthus soften the blend, achieving a flawless equilibrium.
This fragrance is a declaration of intent: it seeks to be unforgettable. The name Desiderátum refers to something deeply desired, and indeed, the scent evokes a longing to experience it again and again.
It will appeal to those who appreciate a unisex fragrance with character, merging floral freshness with woody depth. Perfect for rose and oud enthusiasts, as well as for those who love complex, elegant perfumes.
Desiderátum is a masterpiece that showcases Alan Humberto Maldonado Navarro's expertise. With a perfect score of 5/5, it is a must-have for any perfume connoisseur.
