The Encelade Eau de Parfum by Marc-Antoine Barrois is a vivid and unrestrained fragrance that merges the power of nature with the majesty of the elements. This composition is dedicated to the titan Enceladus, who transformed into a volcano on Earth, enveloped by mysterious jungles. Its green and woody notes, playing on contrasts, allure with their complexity. They blend tenderness and audacity, lightness and strength, making it suitable for both him and her.
The opening notes reveal caramel-sweet accords of tonka beans, complemented by the warmth of sandalwood. The heart notes are expressed through woody accents, adding depth to the fragrance, while the green tones bring freshness and energy. Leather shades in the heart add sophistication and elegance. The base notes of rhubarb and vetiver seduce, lingering on the skin like a delicate veil.
Not for everyone, but my husband and I have a passionate love for this fragrance. It is different from Ganymede, a completely different scent. On a man, it sounds absolutely luxurious. I mix it with Ford Tobacco Vanilla for my own bliss.
I bought this fragrance for a bargain price, but not on this website. It is a very complimentary perfume. People always ask me when I wear it and they want it too. It is quite concentrated, not light, not sweet, with a lingering and unique scent unlike any other. I also use Ganymede and I like it too. In my opinion, Encelade is more citrusy, and you can really smell the freshness of vetiver. If you want to try it, make sure to apply it on yourself and walk around with it. The scent in the bottle is not the same as on you. It unfolds differently on each person.
Finally, I have found a fragrance that suits me 100%. I am ordering a second bottle. It is luxurious, long-lasting, unique, and new. I wear it every day, the main thing is not to overdo it with the quantity. It doesn't suffocate me, it unfolds beautifully. I can detect a lot of green notes and leather.
It smells intoxicating! Expensive and luxurious, this product is truly amazing. It has a complex and multidimensional scent that lasts a long time. It's mind-blowing! Thank you to the creator for making such a unique fragrance!
I purchased a replica fragrance that has a distinct and unusual scent, not quite similar to Ganymede, but I can feel the creator's touch in it. To me, it smells somewhat like a preservative, but with more bitterness than acidity. It is a very unique fragrance.
I bought it not here, but from the official website in France. This perfume is beyond words, it makes me want to scream how awesome it is. I initially ordered Ganymede, but they sent a sample of Enceladus as a gift. Immediately after the first whiff of this fragrance, I ordered a full bottle.
For many years, I hoarded all the perfumes I could afford. And there were so many of them. After Enceladus, I don't want anything else. I finally found what I was looking for! My perfumed self! I adore it! The smell of fresh glossy paper, mmm...
It's completely different from Ganymede, which for me evokes a fresh, modern leather scent.
Someone mentioned Nudiflorum. I have it. It doesn't resemble Enceladus. However, it strongly reminds me of another Nasomatto fragrance - Blamage (which was my favorite before I discovered Enceladus). But Blamage has a more woody scent, while Enceladus has more of a papery note.
In short, I adore Enceladus!!!!! It's a super fragrance! Unique, stylish, it makes me feel more confident.
It's interesting to sometimes read reviews when planning to buy perfume. It's always nice to know the opinions of other people who have already tested or worn the perfume.
In this case, I see conflicting reviews compared to how I perceive this scent. With the first breath, it reminded me of Kilian black phantom but with a noticeable difference. If Kilian is more intense and sweet, then this perfume is restrained and not overpowering, which allows it to be worn daily.
On the top notes, I can sense vetiver and rhubarb with the sweetness of tonka beans. Some places have sandalwood. And that's it. In terms of actual development, there isn't much, but that's the uniqueness of this perfume. It's almost like a pulsating signature scent. It sometimes fades away, then reappears and plays. It has a good and complimentary sillage! It's not heavy.
For me, it leans more towards a masculine perfume due to the vetiver and rhubarb, but I can also imagine it on a professional woman.
I suggest it can be suitable for any time of the year, although I personally prefer it in the summer.
Test it out! Definitely on your skin, not on a blotter!
A very interesting perfume. Not overpowering, moderately sweet with green notes.
I'm sorry, but the smell is nauseating. I bought a deodorant and I can't wash it off! When I inhale this magical scent, I have the desire to put 2 fingers in my mouth... People with heightened sensitivity to smells should be cautious.
