Carlos Quintero and Karl Bradl of Nomenclature
Nomenclature Fluo_ral, the most recent perfume from co-founders and inventive administrators Karl Bradl and Carlos Quintero and award-winning perfumer Nathalie Feisthauer, explores the border, the meniscus so to talk, between the incredible and the life like.

A notion, or a premonition maybe, of incredible realism in perfume has been round for the reason that first aroma chemical was synthesized. With Nomenclature Fluo_ral, Nathalie Feisthauer brings a vivid florescent twist to aquatic olfactory fantasy. Her deft and skillful use of the molecule Calone ® (AKA Watermelon Ketone) is an thrilling, magical interpretation of the acquainted marine theme.
“Within the 90s, Calone was used for clear, limpid aquatic scents. In Fluo_ral, Nathalie Feisthauer amps up its transparency by backlighting it with inexperienced notes so vivid they veer on the fluorescent.” – Nomenclature

My first impression of Fluo_ral is of an extremely vivid inexperienced, crunchy, rhubarb aura. The stalks and leaves of the rhubarb plant are very moist – 95 p.c water – the right vegetal praise to energetic, ozonic Colone. In brief order the tart, juicy, barely soapy-sweet amalgam of pucker energy that’s “rhubarb” is mitigated by a wave of the darkly candy, mint-y thriller of black present buds.

Pink pepper and hints of the leaves of tomato create the glowing, eerie impact of bioluminescent plankton glimmering alongside a darkish strand. Glowing blues, neon greens, deep purples and pinks float on an ocean of cool black rose and metallic Somalian incense. After about 5 hours on pores and skin, the glow and glitter of Nomenclature Fluo_ral fades right into a breath of cedarwood and the ever-present freshness of the seaside.

So many widespread and acquainted crops, rocks and minerals – and even animals -fluoresce and phosphoresce. Our world actually glows with mild that, more often than not, we can’t or won’t see. Nomenclature Fluo_ral jogs my memory to look just a little nearer, observe extra fastidiously and discover the incredible and the magical within the realism of the myriad worlds that encompass us all.
Notes: Calone ®, marine inexperienced, pink pepper, black currant, rhubarb, tomato leaves, rose, Somalian incense and cedarwood.
