Like a gentle and carefree summer day
I love Tacit. It smells like carefree summer vacation to me: reminiscent of warm evenings on the porch with friends, or hanging out in the park in the sun, or driving back from a day at the beach with the windows down.
The opening is a blast of yuzu and other citrus (orange?) plus a beautiful realistic sweet basil. Those citrus notes are naturalistic and gentle/comforting, not sharp and bracing. Think less Terre d'Hermes and more like your hands after peeling a mandarin. The yuzu fades quickly but remains faintly noticeable into the mid, uplifting the beautiful naturalistic dominant basil as a nutty vetiver starts to rise into the mix. Eventually, the drydown is sunny, nutty, slightly spiced and gently dusty vetiver. Nothing swampy, humid or dour here - even in the drydown it stays optimistic. There's supposedly some clove, but I rarely identify it in the mix. If I sniff carefully I can still barely pick out the yuzu though.
Overall, taken at face value it's a very safe scent - nothing particularly groundbreaking, loud, or unusual. Projection is nonexistent at best but longevity is fine (for me). From description alone it seems generic and probably more expensive than it's worth - but there's just something about it that's hard for me to accurately convey (perhaps..... tacit? ) that I absolutely love. It's calm, uplifting, fresh, understated, beguiling, clean, nostalgic, and optimistic. My perfect spring/summer scent.
