Strange, beautiful liquid is worthy of the artpiece bottles.
This fragrance is as adventurous as the beautiful flacons that display it! Upon application the lavander and bergamot are very up front, a lovely, clean, natural lavendar, followed up by a fresh, bracing herbal wash that gives almost a sensation of coolness. i believe vetiver is present at this stage to provide dryness. The praline note is very quiet. It stays in the background and sings with the immortelle to provide a slight underlying sweetness, with a touch of floral and light spice, that keep the composition from becoming too dry and herbal, which to me would place it in the category of mediocrity, despite the art pieces it comes in. After about 20 minuites have passed, the only change is just a touch more sweetness, as the herbal players and dry vetiver are still going strong. Such a well crafted balance, this truly is a masterful fragrance! Being at first skeptical, i wanted to know if the fragrance is as special as the vessel, and indeed it is. It just gets better. There is a little of the vanillic soft and lightness of Creeds, Sublime Vanille here, i believe this is due to a good cocoa powder note, but i would expect no less for this price range. This is not for everyone, but a wonderful olfactory experience nonetheless. Sadly, i am smitten, and will use my sample to the last drop, and perhaps purchase a decant while i admire the beautiful flacon from afar!

What is that then???
On Saturday at the Parfumo meeting in Bonn, I tested Liquid Cristal by Agonist. At first, I was totally thrilled, a fresh lemony top note that is heavily anise and absinthe-laden. Very unusual. The heart note starts for me with an aroma of woodruff, which I also find quite nice, but after a little while, it shifts into a sweet incense-powdered Hubba Bubba gum scent, and that’s it for the base note. After about 3 hours, thank God, it was all over.

My Agonist Test Winner
I tested four fragrances from Agonist, and I was really eager to try one of them. However, Liquid Cristal is the scent that I least expected to like based on the notes, yet I find it by far the most interesting.
Of the four fragrances I have experienced, it is also the one with the strongest scent development and the strongest sillage. However, its longevity is not as good as, for example, the amber or vanilla scents from the same brand.

Liquid Cristal starts fresh, green, and citrusy, but already has spicy notes and a slightly woody, bitter vetiver note. Nevertheless, it possesses a beautiful, not too overpowering base sweetness that later develops into a more pronounced vanilla note. As the initial freshness fades a bit, the fragrance becomes more floral - straw flower is listed, and I believe I remember another fragrance with this component that also smelled similar to the heart note in Liquid Cristal. Unfortunately, I can't recall it right now. At the very end, a soft, gourmand praline note appears - less chocolatey, more buttery, truffle-like.

Overall, I really like the fragrance and it is definitely worth considering for me (purchase-wise) :-D

The delicately dabbed clove dances on the edge between warm and cold. Composed with a fine hand, it captures the interest.

In the Lush shop, enveloped by the scent of orange bath bombs, I'm handed a chai tea. No urge to escape, quite the opposite.

It starts fresh and green, then becomes incense-heavy and pleasantly cool. I really like it a lot.

Heavy milky crystal with enormous longevity and fading sillage. Still, something bothers me. Agonist and I - we won't be friends.

The name fits perfectly with the "light" scent! Citrusy, transparent, spicy. Yet I still prefer the "dark" Agonists even more!
