Elijah Craig Char No. 3 Cologne: A New Fragrance Inspired by Bourbon
Elijah Craig, a renowned name in premium American whiskeys, is excited to introduce its latest innovation—Char No. 3 Cologne. This unique fragrance brings a sensory perspective to the world of bourbon, capturing the warmth and sophistication that define the spirit. Elijah Craig Char No. 3 pays homage to the brand's roots and commitment to craftsmanship, opening a new avenue for bourbon enthusiasts to enjoy the essence of their favorite spirit beyond the drink itself.
The Essence of Bourbon in a Bottle
This fragrance is inspired by the time-honored tradition of barrel charring, a technique perfected by Elijah Craig himself, considered the Father of Bourbon. The scent draws from the rich history of bourbon-making and embodies the character of the charred oak barrels which are essential to aging the whiskey. The olfactory experience begins with bright botanicals that reflect the lush landscapes of Kentucky, including hints of
juniper berry,
lavandin, and
orange blossom.
As the fragrance unfolds, the deep, smoky notes of
nutmeg,
oak barrel, and
birch wood emerge, echoing the transformative moments in which fire meets wood. These elements combine to create a scent that is both enduring and distinctive, paralleling the complexity found in Elijah Craig Bourbon itself.
Craftsmanship Meets Fragrance
Max Stefka, the Associate Vice President of Global Whiskey Brands at Heaven Hill, highlights the connection between bourbon and fragrance, stating, “Elijah Craig's pioneering approach to Bourbon-making has always emphasized craftsmanship, depth, and character. Those same qualities lend themselves beautifully to a fragrance.”
Crafted by
Symrise, an international leader in fine fragrance, the perfume delicately balances layers of warm richness, incorporating elements like
vanilla and
cocoa. This is not just a fragrance; it's an intimate invitation to experience the legacy of Elijah Craig along with its signature bourbon.
