Дымок: a 1970s Leather-and-Moss Oriental for Everyone

From Алые Паруса (Alye Parusa), Дымок Одеколон – Smoke Cologne is an Oriental Cologne for men and women dating from the 1970s. Even before smelling it, the title points towards something smoky and dry.

According to the house, it features leather, floral notes, oakmoss, woody notes and sandalwood. No full pyramid is published, so those ingredients, alongside woody, leather, floral, mossy, earthy and animalic accords, form the basis of any fair description.

Viewed against its period, the style falls into place. During that decade, oakmoss and leather were widely used to give backbone rather than shock, often keeping sweetness well in check.

The emphasis appears to rest on tanned leather paired with oakmoss. One supplies matte dryness with an animalic flicker, the other a shaded, woodland-like mossiness that keeps the composition grounded.

Woody notes and sandalwood then lend a smoother, slightly creamy counterweight. Floral notes, left unspecified, lighten the picture just enough to stop it feeling entirely rugged.

That balance is reflected in its 4.04 out of 5 score from 23 ratings, a respectable showing amongst devotees of classic perfumery. The overall impression is woody and leathery first, mossy and earthy second, with floral and animalic touches behind.

It will suit devotees of austere leather, oakmoss and sandalwood, and anyone tracing the history of Eastern European scent. Those after bright freshness, sugary warmth or a sheer modern finish may wish to look elsewhere.

In short, Дымок is a stern, moss-driven Oriental very much of the seventies. Approached with patience, its restrained smoke and earthy timber have a distinct, old-school charm.
