Crepusculum Mirabile 63
by L'Artisan Parfumeur
Crepusculum Mirabile 63 unfolds as a creamy, soapy jasmine centered on a warm sandalwood base, offering a luminous and clean elegance that evokes Mediterranean evenings and nostalgic childhood moments. The opening features a bright, floral jasmine that feels slightly aquatic and briny—characteristic of its enigmatic character—and is further enhanced by soft, powdery accents and a subtle vanilla tonka by the dry down. Sandalwood lingers with prominence, giving the fragrance an oriental warmth that elevates its sophistication. The composition maintains a delicate balance between floral sweetness and woody texture, resulting in a refined, feminine impression that’s neither overwhelming nor anonymous. It performs best in cooler seasons, particularly autumn and winter, with a moderate sillage that feels intimate yet noticeable. While not particularly long-lasting, the fragrance achieves a smooth and natural evolution once the initial animalic or jasmine-heavy phase subsides.
Pros
- +Delicate and authentic jasmine note that feels reminiscent of natural blossoms and golden summer days.
- +Creamy, soapy, and clean character makes it suitable for professional environments and dusky evening wear.
- +Warm sandalwood base provides depth and elegance without overpowering the floral core.
Cons
- −Short longevity across most wearers limits repeat use and diminishes perceived value.
- −Some find the jasmine intensity overwhelming or slightly synthetic early on.
- −Lacks originality for those seeking bold, experimental or dark perfumes with strong oud or animalic notes.
