Isparta is
dominated by an intense Turkish rose note that's surrounded by the honey and dark fruit / berry-like
qualities of damasc(en)ones. Helping to drive the scent down the Oriental path
is Ambroxan, the balsamic, labdanumesque qualities of which are furthered by a
blend of sticky resins and incense. A generous amount of patchouli meanwhile, provides a counter to the scent’s sweetness and as the perfume
develops, the latter's dusky, earthy qualities become more apparent, culminating in a caliginous
woody accord with roasted-coffee and oak mossy nuances, as well as some oud-type facets stemming from cypriol.
Overall,
Isparta’s rose-patchouli-incense-Ambrox(an) theme is strongly redolent of D. Ropion
/ F. Malle’s Portrait of a Lady (2010).
