Metallic library
I was sent the fragrance. I did not look for it. He was "recommended" to me.

The first smell was: " Oh, ... oh ... that is ... Mh .... weird ... mh ... but ... also kind of, awesome".
To a non-trained nose, I couldn't describe the scent except smoke. Smoke I probably broke out.
I wanted to classify what I was smelling, I wanted to give the scent a picture.
Searched on Parfumo for the scent .... similar .... what does dioecious pokeweed, ambermax, silvanone, boisiris or rosyrane smell like please.
As confused as I was after the first sniff, I was still confused after the scent notes. And that's exactly how the fragrance smells to me.

A day later, I tested the fragrance again. The odd and confused feeling slowly goes away. The fragrance begins to smell "normal" or "familiar".
The concept of the fragrance I find really exciting and somehow cool. After reading this I also mean to smell the metallic. Slowly I can make myself a picture of the fragrance.
In my nose I find, the fragrance lives through its concept.
In the drydown, the fragrance begins to smell lovely, the smoke is gone, the metallic has remained.
If I try to forget the concept, the fragrance reminds me of our public library where I used to hang out as a kid.

The scent is interesting, it doesn't smell bad ... but that's about it for me. See the fragrance more on a man. The fragrance is worth an experience, but that's it

The Scent of Outer Space
What does outer space smell like? Dr. Heywood Floyd sat pondering in a white Chesterfield armchair over the brightly glowing glass tiles of a Neo-Victorian space station at the other end of a wondrous wormhole. If one believed in the creation story, it would probably be incense that filled the vastness. Balsamic boswellian images of smoking ambers unfolded in his imagination.
Or would our senses be deceived by chemical compounds? Those in our head, our mind, the stardust of the known and unknown periodic table? What does the white leather of this chair smell like now that it exists in an imagined universe? And if the image of the chair were not here, would I imagine it because of the chemical connection that tries to imitate it?
Does space really smell like burning wood, even if this has only been proven on a single planet? What would my skin smell like if it were made of metals that had begun to oxidize? Would it turn to animalistic powder? Could there possibly exist a reddish smelling balsamic acid?
Calmly, Dr. Floyd put his thoughts on paper, with a pencil, or was it a cedar? I can taste in zero gravity, but are there smells in a vacuum? Perhaps they would wander like airy light ether. Dr. Floyd stared from the rotating space station into infinity, at the glowing lights of the past. H.A.L. must have chuckled.
**
With "Methaldone," Rodrigo Flores Roux attempted to imitate the scent of space in collaboration with astronauts from the ISS. An ambitious concept that he consistently tried to implement with the purely synthetic, partly specially created fragrance compounds Silvavone (described as animalistic powdery or moist metallic), Boisiris (metallic / smoky woody), Rosyrane (sour synthetic floral), and Ambermax (ambery / cedar-like), capturing the "metallic smell of the spaceship, the bitter smoky scent when leaving the cockpit."
What has emerged, in my opinion, is a rather skin-close projecting, airy light, balsamic incense scent, swirling in a cloud of red resin drops with slightly sour as well as light woody smoky components. I perceive leather, just like a development, not. My spacewalk lasted about four to five hours.
