{"product_id":"maison-alhambra-signatures-no-iii-eau-de-parfum-50ml","title":"Signatures No. III Eau de Parfum 50ml","description":"\u003cp\u003ePineapple, caramel, vanilla and sandalwood: that is the entire note list of Maison Alhambra Signatures No. III Eau de Parfum 50ml, and a four material composition has nowhere to hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pineapple is the hook. It is handled bright and slightly tart at first, with that sharp tropical edge intact, and then it starts to cook: caramel comes up underneath it, sticky and faintly burnt, and the fruit turns from fresh to candied within the first twenty minutes. If you have ever liked a pineapple opening and wished it lasted, this is a composition built on exactly that wish. Very few fragrances commit to a single fruit this completely. Vanilla takes over from the caramel, smoother and rounder, holding the sweetness steady rather than increasing it, and sandalwood gives the base a dry, soft warmth that stops the whole thing turning into syrup. There is no citrus, no flower and no spice anywhere in it, which is why it smells so single minded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect good longevity for a fragrance this simple, moderate projection, and very little development after the first half hour. That is not a criticism of a short composition, but it is worth knowing: this is a scent you choose because you want that accord all day, not because you want to follow it somewhere. Treat it as an accord rather than as a perfume and it makes a great deal more sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 50ml size is a reasonable commitment for something this distinctive. It suits cold weather, evenings and anyone with a sweet tooth in their fragrance, and it reads as unisex. It also layers well under something drier if you find it too sweet on its own. Maison Alhambra is a Lattafa Perfumes brand, and Lattafa itself works from Sharjah.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Alhambra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54166857548103,"sku":"BTS369888","price":38.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/bts369888.webp?v=1781553019","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/maison-alhambra-signatures-no-iii-eau-de-parfum-50ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
