Inspired by the legend of Scheherazade, the heroine of the Arabian Nights, 1001 is a tribute to intellectual seduction. Just as Scheherazade was able to forestall her execution and eventually win the heart of the Sultan through the power of her storytelling, so too does 1001 paint a portrait so vivid and enthralling that you, too, may find your heart transformed before the end of the story.
One must always grab the reader from the opening lines, and thus 1001 opens with an arresting burst of spicy pepper, saffron, and ginger, softened with lush rose and bergamot. Earthy tumeric and woodsy-green papyrus heighten the complexity even more as the tale deepens, and ambered basenotes only further our discoveries, as the many nuances of the still-quite-present spice hint at a universe of adventures and legends we've only begun to explore. It's an utterly fascinating spicy amber scent, one that avoids the bulky cliches of the genre and instead delivers a masterfully complex story that prefers to draw you in, rather than shout. Get lost in the world of 1001- you won't be the same when it's over.
