About Красный Мак (Red Poppy Flower)
Красный Мак: A Historic Oriental from 1927
Composed by Auguste Michel, Красный Мак (Red Poppy Flower) by Новая Заря (The New Dawn) is a Womens Oriental first launched in 1927.
It centres on roses, amber and vanilla, with citrus brightness and a soft, powdery warmth. It is rated 4.25 out of 5 from 175 ratings.
At the top are blood orange, bergamot, peach and ylang-ylang, giving a luminous fruity-citrus start with a distinct yellow-floral facet.
The middle accord gathers rose, jasmine and neroli alongside vanilla, anise, cardamom and bitter almond. The rose is prominent, the vanilla smooths the blend, and the anise and cardamom lend restrained spiced warmth.
Underneath lie benzoin, sandalwood, ambergris, orris root and tonka bean. The foundation is balsamic and woody, made softer by powdery iris and the sweetness of tonka.
The listed accords are rose, amber, vanilla, sweet, citrus, warm spicy, floral, woody, powdery and yellow floral. Taken together, the composition reads as a period oriental, floral and resinous rather than heavy.
It will suit those who enjoy traditional floral orientals — sweet rose with vanilla, gentle spice and a powdery amber-wood drydown.
A 1927 creation of enduring charm, valued for its rose-led heart and its mellow amber, sandalwood and tonka base.
