MERCURY
ANTOINE LIE
Mirroring in a dream
“My inspiration comes from the fact Mercury is a fluid element, not a solid. I wanted to give the impression of a shiny and bright fluidity with metallic inflections, but very clean ones… It had to be a fragrance with a strong impact because Mercury for me is dynamic and evokes modernity and technology.
I’ve played with a metal effect twisted with a clean, technological and dynamic aspect in order to translate my idea of Mercury in an odor. For the metal effect I’ve created an oxide accord, while a mix of aldehydes, rhubarb and mandarin reproduce the clean dynamic and technological character. The dry-down is woody with notes of cedar wood and sandalwood.”
Dynamic scheme: mirroring/transformation. Irrepressible, swinging, shimmering, fluid... It’s silvery and startling: a combinations of reflections and transparencies. It is like a mirror that magnifies and folds reality.

Fruity and Bright
This is another nice fragrance from the nu_be house. It starts off with strong aldehydes, then you get some strawberry and orange. It's sweet, but not sugary sweet, and the aldehydes tame the sweetness. It has a sour bite to it that I enjoy. It would be great in spring and summer weather. I get good projection and average longevity. 4 Stars.
