Bourbon

Bourbon by Ermenegildo Zegna, released in 2017, is an Oriental Spicy masculine fragrance that opens with an unusual and complex blend. The top notes list vanilla, ginger, cassis, vetiver, cypriol oil (nagarmotha), and Turkish rose. This combination creates a striking first impression: sweet vanilla and tangy cassis are pierced by sharp ginger and grounded by the earthy, woody facets of vetiver and cypriol. The rose adds a subtle floral nuance, making the opening both vibrant and sophisticated. Since no heart or base notes are provided, the structure relies heavily on these top notes to carry the composition, which likely transitions into a warm, woody, and vanilla-driven drydown.

Collectors who appreciate bold, spicy orientals with a modern twist will find Bourbon compelling. Its main accords—woody, vanilla, earthy, aromatic, fresh, and fresh spicy—suggest a versatile scent that works well in cooler weather, especially evening wear or formal occasions. It suits men who enjoy fragrances with depth and a touch of sweetness, but who also want something fresh and spicy. Given its discontinued status, Bourbon is a worthy addition for those seeking a unique, well-blended oriental that balances richness with freshness.

Ermenegildo Zegna Bourbon 於2017年推出，屬東方辛辣調男香。前調融合雲呢拿、生薑、黑加侖子、香根草、莎草油及土耳其玫瑰，開初係甜中帶酸，生薑嘅辛辣同香根草、莎草嘅泥土木質感互相平衡，玫瑰則添上細緻花香。由於官方未公佈中調同基調，整體結構主要靠呢啲前調支撐，估計會逐漸過渡到溫暖嘅木質同雲呢拿基調。主調 Accord 包括木質、雲呢拿、泥土、芳香、清新同清新辛辣，氣質大膽而現代。適合秋冬或夜晚使用，尤其係正式場合。適合鍾意辛辣東方調、又想要少少清新感嘅男士。由於已停產，對收藏家嚟講，呢支係一支值得留意嘅獨特之作。
