Blessed Baraka is for me a dark fragrance. From the pyramid should not be influenced too much. The notes given are indeed present, whether this is so complete I dare to doubt. Like so many, I also perceive a cherry vibe, in addition to light boozy vibes. This makes this fragrance very unique and for me it is most likely a fragrance for the dark hours of the day. Well, when it comes to creating fragrances Initio are not messing about trying to recreate scents that trigger emotions linked to your childhood or remind you of certain places and times etc… a b Ernst, Carl W.

This is an EDP and projects nicely (just over arm’s length) for the first few hours leaving a gorgeous scent trail.Takim, L. N. (2006). The Heirs of the Prophet: Charisma And Religious Authority in Shi'ite Islam. SUNY Press. ISBN 0791481913. Rehab is part of Initio’s Hedonist collection (white bottles). This was a project to source super high quality natural ingredients to create a nearly all natural luxurious blend. followed with a hint of smoky guaiac wood, some fruity earthy patchouli and a pinch of vanilla sweetness. Baraka is a prominent concept in Islamic mysticism, particularly Sufism. [3] It pervades Sufi texts, beliefs, practices, and spirituality. Sufism emphasizes the importance of esoteric knowledge and the spiritual union with God through the heart. Baraka symbolizes this connection between the divine and the worldly through God's direct and intentional blessing of those that are most reflective of Him and his teachings.

Atomic Rose is Initio’s latest release in their Carnal Blend collection. But, does it live up to its name? Performance is excellent. Blessed Baraka is an EDP and projects just over arm’s length for about 1.5 to 3 hours leaving a nice scent trail… At the start, it is a dark, sweet seducer that projects intensely. Then joins a spicy accord to it with a touch of amber, which smells but not as animalic as in the prelude of Grand Soir, but rather sweet-spicy. The overall picture then already seems as if cherry must also be included. If you’re looking for a room filler, this is NOT it. This is an intimate scent that sits closer to the skin and draws people in. As the name suggests, Absolute Aphrodisiac is part of the Absolute collection. But does it live up to its name?Herod: So, I wore Herod a day after wearing Tobacco Vanille (unintentionally) and aside from having tobacco and vanilla as dominant accords, they're not that similar. Herod is softer, the vanilla is more obvious but still well blended. The tobacco note is also softer, I'd say TV has a sharper tobacco note. This is more my speed than TV, even though I think both are great fragrances. Performance is great and I love the drydown. Not interested in buying this in any quantity, but if you like the tobacco/vanilla profile, you'll probably love this! Psychedelic Love opens up with a burst of myrrh mixed with some florals (ylang-ylang) to give you a sweet resinous floral vibe. Rehab opens up fresh, clean and spicy with a blast of bergamot citrus mixed with lavender and some spicy tobacco.
