French Quarter Cologne

A landlocked counterpart to its Reef sibling, French Quarter Cologne from Michael Malul trades ocean for spice, bitter orange, crisp apple and cinnamon opening tart and warmly seasoned. Ginger, sazerac accord and myrrh deepen the centre into something spiced and distinctly boozy. Sugar cube, cashmeran and vanilla close the base sweet, warm and softly woody. A sazerac accord as a named material is a literal cocktail reference, giving the centre a specific, New Orleans inspired character. French Quarter Cologne is a spicy gourmand Eau de Parfum from Michael Malul, suited to evening wear and special occasions. Michael Malul built a specific American city into this one, just as he built a reef into its sibling.
