Esprit du Tigre proves that there is no subject matter unsuitable for perfumery. More than just a reference to the famous red balsam, Tiger Balm, Esprit’s cooling sensation is evocative of the chilling bite of snow, the fiery snap of spices, and the yin-yang of hot and cold in balance. Fire meets ice in this fragrance; a tonic without the usual citrus or herbal suspects, but its inverse – a heavy dose of spice and resin. This thoughtful melange captures the continuum of temperature, sliding up and down the range: icy wintergreen and mint notes, cool cardamon and camphor, warming up to the blunt warmth of cinnamon and pepper, then ascending to the searing heat of clove. A thoughtful study of spice.
