{"product_id":"the-merchant-of-venice-damascus-desert","title":"Damascus Desert","description":"\u003cp\u003eDamascus Desert opens with lemon, bergamot, and ginger, a citrus-spice combination that The Merchant of Venice uses to evoke the warm air of Syria's ancient trading city before the composition moves into its heart. Orris, clary sage, and geranium give the mid-stage a complex, slightly powdery-aromatic quality that the citrus opening has not predicted: cooler, more structured, with the orris adding a root-level depth. Amber and cedar in the base are warm and dry, vetiver threading through with a smokiness that evokes the desert's evening temperature drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Carry This\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe orris-clary sage-geranium heart in Damascus Desert is the compositional choice that makes this more than a Middle Eastern citrus fragrance. The ginger-bergamot opening is an accessible entry, but the powdery-aromatic heart reveals the composition's actual sophistication, and the amber-vetiver base holds it through a lasting drydown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eScent Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bergamot, Saffron, Cardamom, Pink Pepper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeart notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oud, Rose, Labdanum, Jasmine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBase notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amber, Sandalwood, Musk, Incense\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCharacter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccords:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oud, Amber, Warm Spicy, Rose, Woody, Incense\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLaunched:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Merchant of Venice","offers":[{"title":"3.4 oz","offer_id":48123470381300,"sku":"679602004916-L4","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/2472\/7796\/files\/studio_4b50cf30-3a1a-4d79-ba37-1b404b612c02.jpg?v=1783307353","url":"https:\/\/www.casaalcheme.com\/products\/the-merchant-of-venice-damascus-desert","provider":"Casa Alchemē","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
