Papillon Bengale Rouge (Liz Moores; at the 26:30 minute mark)

In addition:

there was a brief mention of Calvin Klein CK Everyone (Alberto Morillas; at the 33:30 minute mark)

Here's the blotter update...

To give it its due, the drydown of Alien Mirage is more recognisably Alien than the opening is. But it's still a fairly coarse, standoffish piece of work.
Nomade absolu de parfum has turned out to be my least favourite of the Nomads so far. There's an excessive reliance of woods in the base, which detracts from the sophistication and smoothness of the whole.
Bengale Rouge presents a rich, glowing (if, again, non-distinctive) tonka-sandalwood drydown.
Jaipur Homme is a wonder: powdery, resinous, woody. All the elements beautifully balanced. Both rugged and gentle at the same time.

Thanks for watching.
