Baruti is Greek for gunpowder, a word used to describe something with a bite or edge. Berlin IM Winter is like a perfume explosion on the skin, a charismatic rebel that is intoxicating and unpredictable, with its ability to evoke powerful emotions and reactions with and intensity that cannot be ignored. After reading an earlier post on ÇaFleureBon I was intrigued to learn more.

The background of Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos  fascinates me. With his keen eye for detail and relentless pursuit of perfection, Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos brings his scientific precision to perfumery, crafting unique fragrances under his brand, Baruti, that evoke emotions and inspire those who wear them. He collaborates with select brands on confidential projects, using his talent and passion to create distinctive scents that leave lasting impressions.

I was motivated to learn more about Baruti’s mission  of embracing self-expression, creativity, and doing it in an eco-friendly way. From the materials they use, packaging, and distribution, everything  is designed with the planet in mind. The idea of embracing individuality, passion, and uniqueness resonated deeply.

I surrendered myself to this perfume that epitomizes my inner wanderlust, invoking inspiration for uncharted domains through its captivating essence. Berlin IM Winter opens with prominent notes of mastic and cassis, which persist  as it dries down. I indulged myself in this balsamic fragrance’s rich, velvety depths, woven with subtle notes of rose, Iris, and plum, that created a truly immersive experience that transcends the ordinary. It is an exceptional encounter destined to leave you spellbound, comforted, and adventurous without inhibitions.

From the moment I sprayed it on, it embraced me in an aromatic atmosphere that stimulated my senses and transported me to a world of wonder. The skillfully crafted ingredients featuring unexpected essences create mystical moments. So get cozy and unleash your inner rebel (I did) no matter the season you may just surprise yourself.

    It seems a complex and fascinating fragrance. The way Sandi describes it – balsamic, aromatic, rich and transcending – sparked my interest, and the main notes are quite intriguing as well. I hope I’ll have the chance to wear it. Being an all-season perfume is a plus.

  • Salem says:

    Sandi describing Berlin im Winter as a deep, balsamic “all year round”-er sounded most promising. Mastic is to me quite a rare and nostalgic note, so it would be lovely to smell it here. With such elegant complementary heart notes like cassis, rose, iris and voluptuous amber, myrrh and leather further down, I am sure this fragrance is a recipe for success.

    Great to read about Sandi’s impressions of this fantastic perfume. All of Baruti’s fragrances are indeed skillfully crafted, rich and unique, and Spyros is a cool guy to boot! Greetings from London, UK

    The note of Irish Coffe sounds so cozy and beautiful and I love coffee notes so this note really sparked my interest. Wearing this fragrance I’m sure I’d imagine myself in a cozy café sipping some Irish Coffee. I live in Trzebnica, Poland, EU.

  • Laurentiu says:

    I only know and enjoy Perverso from the house of Baruti. Such a polarizing scent, definitely a head-turner. I always wondered how the rest from the line are compared to Perverso, since that one is easily their most popular offering. I like the notes from Berlin im Winter and I think it would be a great experience, a mystical moment. Thank you!

  • MelKT42 says:

    I live in the US and would love to win Berlin IM Winter. What really intrigued me about this review is the plum and rose..and the balsamic notes. Yes please! On top of that, the bottle is really a work of art.

  • Freddie Schindler says:

    How can one not be intrigued by Sandi’s description of this fragrance unlocking wanderlust and that inner rebel?! Giving in to the little devil on your shoulder just once, let’s have an adventure! Plus the notes of rose, plum, iris, myrrh and frankincense just seem ripe for starting something memorable!

  • Manu says:

    Sandi’s review of Baruti’s Berlin IM Winter is incredibly interesting, drawing me in with its vivid descriptions of the fragrance’s notes and its ability to transfer me to adventure and self-expression. The emphasis on Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos’s meticulous approach to perfumery, coupled with Baruti’s commitment to eco-friendly practices, speaks to a brand that values both innovation and sustainability. I’m particularly intrigued by the fragrance’s unique blend of lavender, mastic oil, and cassis, which really gives a feeling of winter with their cold herbal facets. This sounds amazing!

  • opalbear says:

    I love love looooove mastic. Especially in a skin scent. But look at these other notes? Greek Rose and Irish coffee, Plum (another fave) and Myrrh? I’m so incredibly excited intrigued and smitten! I realllly would love to try this. What an amazing fragrance?!
    I appreciate the opportunity to win and am in California. Thank you fingers crossed!

  • Arron_Q says:

    I have not tried anything from Baruti yet but they sound like an intriguing house. What caught my attention about Berlin IM Winter is the use of cassis, a note that I think is criminally underused. I imagine it pairs beautifully with the plum and iris. I’m also a fan of all things balsamic so this ticks that box for me. Will have to look into this house for sure. Best of luck to everyone. I live in NC, USA.

  • moshe says:

    The cassis and the resins are what attract my attention. I don’t know what to expect at first sniff but I love that kind of notes.
    Another Baruti fragrance I’m interested is NOOUD, hope I can smell it someday. Regards from Mexico.

  • Shibuichi2000 says:

    Always comforting to read about brands that think about the environment when developing their products, it’s a big plus in my eyes.
    It’s interesting that, although named Berlin im Winter, the scent is described by Sandi as being an all rounder. I’d like to ‘visit’ Berlin in winter
    I’m in EU.

  • Absurdnose says:

    Fantastic review! This is the first I’ve heard of this brand and I love the name. Iris and Plum in combination sound like absolute stunners. I would love to try this. I’m in the US.

    Notes: per Baruti and Fragrance Vault: Lavender (Greece), Mastic oil (Chios), Rose (Greece), Iris, Cassis, Plum, Myrrh, Frankincense (Oman), Irish Coffee, NOOUD, Amber, Leather. I am intrigued by the notes especially Irish coffee, rose, plum, myrrh and leather this sounds like a magical concoction. I have heard of this house but definitely need to explore further. Thanks a million from the UK

  • Ozzyaziz says:

    Myrrh, Frankincense (Oman), Irish Coffee, NOOUD, Amber, Leather. This sounds like a beautifully crafted fragrance the notes all sound marvellous. I have only tried NOOUD from this house but this this sounds like a very special fragrance. Thanks a lot from the United Kingdom

  • chiara says:

    I like a lot the concept of coziness besides your inner rebel. Based on Sandi’s description, that gives me the yin and yang vibes, we’re more complex that we seems. That should surprise us everyday. Baruti seems to be the brand where we can mirror ourselves. Thank you! I am from Italy, EU.

  • Ben A says:

    Sandi’s review makes this one sound fascinating. The note breakdown seems unique. And I’m intrigued by the name, having spent a lot of time over the years in Berlin, including in the winter. I hope I have the opportunity to try this one! I’m in Oklahoma, USA.

    Sandi depicted a rebellious yet cozy fragrance that you can wear every day: that’s just what I look for in niche perfumery.
    Thanks from Italy (EU)

  • Maurizio says:

    Sandi said iris, then plum, then rose, and I can’t stop imagining how the blend smells like. Well done Baruti. Can’t way to try this one.
    I’m commenting from Italy!

  • oliviatworkowsky says:

    What is sparking my interest to try this fragrance is the velvety depths that come from the balsamic, and Cassis, in the fragrance with notes of rich Plum rose and Iris notes. It sounds like a really comforting but impeccable fragrance that could be worn all around!

    I love unique fragrances, and this one sounds absolutely phenomenal and unique!

  • Jacob_Rogan says:

    Salutations
    I don’t speak Greek, and I’m not a doctor like Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos , but I’m definitely into refined balsamic fragrances. It’s a good thing that Cafleurebon recommends not only bigger niche brands, but also smaller indie brands like Baruti , Berlin IM Winter feels classy, and also modern and a bit avanturistic
    I find the fragrance tempting for the a) sensual components b) elegance c) original narrative d) rose , mastic and plum
    I’d appreciate Berlin IM Winter very much
    It’s been a pleasure

  • WillRhodes says:

    Thank you for the review, Sandy. I got my nose on Winter in Berlin last fall on my travels and immediately loved this fragrance and all of its unfolding layers and it’s played on my skin. I found this to be very comforting and I just love the notes of rose and lavender, and that coffee note really brings me to something familiar and warm. I love it.

  • Maestro says:

    Bravo Sandi! your review immediately caught my attention with its vivid description of the fragrance as a charismatic rebel, invoking powerful emotions and reactions. The description of its balsamic richness, woven with notes of mastic, cassis, rose, iris, and plum, evokes an immersive experience that transcends the ordinary. I got the feeling that “Berlin in Winter” not only provides a sensory journey but also highlights the ethos of Baruti as a brand that celebrates self-expression, creativity, and eco-consciousness. It’s an invitation to unleash your inner rebel and embrace the unexpected, no matter the season. Greetings from Abu Dhabi, UAE.

    I loveeee Baruti! I have a couple of their extraits in my collection and Berlin I’m Winter is on my wishlist. I have never tried their newer EDPs, but I’m sure they are also amazing. I agree with Sandi, this fragrance is cozy but also somehow rebellious. I love lavender, mastic and incense combo. I’m from Illinois US.

  • AnasPet says:

    Baruti Berlin IM Winter feels a bit like Halloween season fragrance, daring and enigmatic.
    I know Baruti Chai – really nice milky spicy tea fragrance , Berlin IM Winter is new to me and I’m interested in the rich velvety depth , the mysterious and relaxing properties.With or without the edgy parts , the flavor of cassis, pum , rose and mastic i find enthralling.
    Exceptional encounter according to Sandi Lundberg, Berlin IM Winter would be great
    Thank you kindly, from EU

  • Trinity33 says:

    Berlin IM Winter sounds like a perfect all season fragrance. The notes are exquisitely sourced and I love the fruit and floral combination of lavender, rose, iris, cassis and plum. The balsamic notes including amber and leather sound comforting. I’m in the US.

  • mdellaroc says:

    This sounds like a unique experience, even in the perfume world. I am intrigued by the behind the scenes magic which leave you feeling as if you traveled to other locales. In maryland.

  • glowup says:

    I’ve always been a fan of creativity, being a creative myself it just resonates with me. I instantly identified with the writer’s description of “embracing individuality, passion, and uniqueness”. This is something that aligns with my character, not to mention plum and iris is a love. This sounds like I would love it.

    My wife and I are fans of Baruti. We currently own Oh Deer! and Chai. While the extrait versions of these creations come in a tiny 30ml bottle, the performance that we’ve experienced is very powerful. A little goes a long way. Our Baruti fragrances are unique yet very wearable. Looking forward to getting our noses on Berlin IM Winter.

    I personally have no experience with mastic as a fragrance note, so it’s prominence immediately caught my interest. US.

    Sandi’s review of Baruti Berlin IM Winter ignited my curiosity and captivated my senses. The description of Berlin IM Winter as a charismatic rebel, intoxicating and unpredictable, instantly drew me in.
    What resonated with me the most was Baruti’s mission of embracing self-expression and creativity while prioritizing eco-friendliness in every aspect of their production.

  • Cuttyj77 says:

    I have been reading/hearing good things about this house. I have not had a chance to sample as of yet. Cassis is an interesting note with my skin chemistry and does not always work, or rather changes depending on the season, and weather. Thank you for the draw! US, NY.

  • rmsssss says:

    I’m so curious about this fragrance! The combo of rose, iris, and plum sounds divine, and I’m so curious about how they combine with the mastic and coffee notes. I’ve definitely never seen this combo before! I would love to give it a try. I’m in MN, USA.

  • AromaDulce73 says:

    “A perfume explosion on the skin”…that caught my attention. I’ve heard great things about Baruti. I’m intrigued by Berlin IM Winter. I never heard of the notes mastic and cassis, super curious to know what that smells like. Would love to add this to my collection.

    This sounds like such a nuanced, complicated, complex, breathtaking fragrance. I love Baruti as a house!

  • mmerline says:

    Berlin IM Winter features an interesting blend of notes. The mastic and cassis opening is distinct from other perfumes with a floral-incense heart, and that Irish Coffee note is straight-up unexpected. I’m intrigued by the way this fragrance progresses, since the notes listed suggest some very different styles as they combine and dry down. Would love to try it.

    I’m in the USA.

  • Doubleoh says:

    Plum and Iris? You got me. I am sold lol. I also like the scientific approach that’s being taken to create the fragrance. I always like to hear when people of perfumers bring other knowledge from a different occupation over to perfumery

  • sav17 says:

    Like Sandi, I have always been fascinated by Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos as well. I enjoy the fragrances I have tried from Baruti, but I’ve yet to try Berlin IM Winter. I enjoy all of the included notes, and I am glad to hear from Sandi that the mastic and cassis persist into the dry down. I am even more intrigued by Sandi’s comment about the fragrance creating “mystical moments”.

    Thank you, Sandi, for the great review, and thank you to Spryos Drosopoulos for the giveaway. I am located in the USA.

  • BigMickyD says:

    This sounds lovely! Complex and deep, while retaining wearability. The notes sound fascinating, and they seem to support each other in a great way, based on what Sandi writes. Hopefully I get the opportunity to try this perfume.

I liked the idea of having something so versatile and that provides an experience that lingers. Sounds wonderful and cozy and I would love to try it!

    That mastic note is interesting. I’d love to try a perfume explosion on my skin. I am assuming this is beast mode. Beautiful cozy photos even though I am ready for winter to end. Thanks for the chance. Not familiar with this line. USA.

  • bobi.boj says:

    No surprise complexity and diversity are chosen by Dr. Spyros Drosopoulos to be te focus of Baruti IM Winter . The fragrance is gentle, rich and daring at the same time , with the good amount of resins , iris , and fruits.
    I can see why the fragrance journalist believes that IM Winter transcends the ordinary , and pointing out its level of complexity. The mystical aspects are makes the whole story complete.
    Thanks for the review, and the giveaway

    Hey , I know it’s a different Cafleurebon contributor but like a lot of other brands , Neela Vermeire Creations for example, I also discovered Baruti while watching Redolessence videos. He spoke of Chai a couple of times, I was impressed by the sample and bought a full bottle.
    Thanks to Sandi Lundberg review i started thinking all kinds of beautiful and mysterious moments , plus I wonder how mastic, rose and cassis would work together in IM Winter , ambiguous experience if I have to guess.
    Thank you, and fingers crossed

  • foreverscents says:

    I love Dama Koupa from Baruti. It’s the most creative and shape-shifting iris fragrance I have ever worn, I would love to try Berlin IM Winter. I enjoy balsamic fragrances. I am very curious about the iris in the fragrance. I’d love to compare it to Dama Kouoa.

  • Timothy_knows_well says:

    Hello from UK
    In IM Winter from Baruti I really like the blend of upscale and mystical moments, daring yet cozy fragrance i’d love to win. I’m intrigued by the medley of florals , cassis and plum, and the meditative charm in the base.
    It’s obvious that Sandi Lundberg is so impressed by the sophistication of the fragrance, the balance between ingredients and the whole warm experience.
    Thank you

  • Angel_St_8 says:

    I’m curious about what kind of doctor Spyros Drosopoulos is , medical or .. ?
    Otherwise Baruti IM Winter is a captivating fragrance , warm fruity experience with some aromatic atmosphere .
    The thickness , natural ingredients , the daring perfumer too , i find to be the most appealing features. Not to mention the enchanting properties
    The brand of Baruti I’ve never heard about. I like the idea of cassis, lavender , mastic and iris made into an edgy fragrance.
    Thank you Sandi Lundberg for the review ,and of course Spyros Drosopoulos for the generosity

Additionally, learning about Dr. Drosopoulos’s background in science and his commitment to crafting unique fragrances that embrace self-expression and creativity adds depth to the review. The emphasis on eco-friendliness in the brand’s mission also resonates with contemporary concerns about sustainability. Overall, the review conveys a sense of intrigue and excitement about the fragrance. Poland EU

  • wallygator88 says:

    Thanks for the lovely review Sandi.
    This fragrances sounds very inviting, especially in the colder weather that we have at the moment. The opening of mastic and cassis, the addition of lavender and rose and the interesting use of frankinscense, irish coffee and a little bit of the Baruti perfume NOOUD, which is really cool because that fragrance can be used for layering.

    I would love to give this a try.

    Cheers from WI, USA

  • N_Il_158 says:

    I looked at Baruti website, and it’s stated that all fragrances and blended in house, by hand by Spyros Drosopoulos ! Great news .Even though like most aspects of life, perfume production and technologies are evolving rapidly, there are even some almost 22nd century futuristic approaches , still I’m glad smaller brands like Baruti are still implementing more classical , and artisanal approaches.
    Berlin IM Winter i find attractive because of the plums I love eating , the rose, cassis and mystical atmosphere that Sandi Lundberg also said transported her to a world of wonder.
    Thanks a million , from UK

  • r_Ben10 says:

    What are the differences between IM Winter bottles ot the 1st , and on the 5th picture? Both are courtesy of the brand , are they different concentration, different sizes maybe?
    Sandi Lundberg is keen on Baruti IM Winter not sorely because of the smell, but because of the packaging, individuality and adventurous characteristics. Fruity-floral and ambery essence, skilfully crafted ingredients and as a whole inner rebel blend I’m drawn to.
    The booming fireplace vibe and better performance because of its extrait concentration are also big parts of the overall image Sandi Lundberg painted so well.
    Cheers from UK

  • Tivoli_Bam says:

    Big time YES to uniqueness , upscale indie perfumery, daring approaches and aesthetics .
    I especially like how Sandi Lundberg spoke of Baruti Berlin IM Winter balsamic rich velvety depth, and rose iris and plum immersive experience. Everything in the fragrance i find rich and inviting.
    Thanks a bunch

  • Burney_H says:

    Howgy everyone
    Mastic and cassis in not something you can find easily, even if you look for such aromas. Considering the levels of sophistication, obscure character i tend to believe , with Sandi Lundberg help that Berlin IM Winter no doubt transcends the ordinary perfumery and experiences. Dr Spyros Drosopoulos was able to put balsamic, aromatic, fruity and floral traits in one unique basket , i’m interested
    Thanks, UK

  • Barber82 says:

    Here Baruti fragrances are available at Essenza Nobile, one of premier German niche boutiques / distributors , and Berlin IM Winter is a gem no questions asked. It’s a daring fragrance and not so easy to wear, but I like it a lot, second best Baruti after Perverso .
    “Charismatic rebel that is intoxicating and unpredictable”
    Sandi Lundberg literally took the words out of my mouth, the fragrance is quite complex, intoxicating and more than unpredictable , sampling first is a must. There are a lot of factors that can make a difference, and influence the wearer opinion. I semi-agree with Sandi Lundberg about the opening, about the mastic and cassis, I can also smell nice amount of lavender too. In the base is where our opinions with Sandi Lundberg differ, to me Berlin IM Winter turns sweeter , more fruity ambery , very thick and quite boozy – the reason there’s a glass of whiskey behind the old presentation on the very first picture in the article. Whiskey, coffee and suede leather are easily detectable on my skin, on the other hand and quite surprisingly not even available on Sandi’s skin .
    I like how me and Sandi Lundberg love Berlin IM Winter, but not quite for the same reasons wow.
    Perverso I own
    Thanks to all involved
