Tyger Tyger imitates the powerful contraposition between a highly sophisticated and refined civilisation managing to survive in a dark and fearful post-apocalyptic world. The juxtaposition between light and dark in this scent is gorgeously thought provoking, and leaves you questioning which side of yourself you want to indulge today. A delectable sweetness dominates here, but not in a typical gourmand fashion. Indolic white flowers, namely tuberose, provide an essence of innocent sweet fruitiness which is then elevated by the indulgence of sticky honeyed peaches. To contrast, a dark and mysterious base of thick leather and patchouli pull you in deeper. Surprisingly, there is no orris listed here which is unusual for Bianchi, however the powdery and creamy facets of sandalwood, oakmoss and heliotrope more than make up for it. I can see why this is one of the more popular fragrances from this house, it is absolutely beautiful. Bianchi’s true talent is best demonstrated when it comes to combining such conflicting notes together and have it somehow come out smelling smooth and rounded. Definitely among my favourites.
