Purple Stain

I have two fragrances from BORNTOSTANDOUT here. As you can see, they're in red bottles, so I was trying to figure out what sets them apart from the original collection, which come in white bottles. It says that these are extra extreme concentration, so that's the significance of the red.

But also, these two fragrances specifically have, in my opinion, a Middle Eastern palette. Specifically, I'm smelling Oud and Saffron in both of them. Oud Candy has that wonderful touch of sweetness. There's, I believe, a little bit of caramel in here, but the saffron comes through and it resembles leather and it makes this fragrance quite serious and very sophisticated.

Purple Stain also has the Oud and the Saffron, but it has this wonderfully sweet fruity note. You're supposed to be thinking about wine-stained pages of a book, so imagine a decadent night out. But I don't really smell so much of a wine note, more of a concord grape note. It's delightful. I love how it combines with those more grounded saffron, leather, Oud notes.

These are both very chic and highly recommended.
