Summer Meditations
“A song of salty incense, of mineral warmth and summer meditations, Lineage is the scent of travelling far from home to get closer to yourself." The olfactory class is categorized as Spicy Aquatic Mineral. This certainly breaks the mold of traditional summer inspired fragrances.
I was put off by the heady herbal opening, but found that this phase did not last long and later came to appreciate it. Olibanum and myrrh are obviously primary, but definitely detecting vetiver as the fragrance dries down gradually. The patchouli appears to be very faint, however there is a presence of benzoin that becomes more pronounced as Lineage progresses. In many ways I'm reminded of Akkad by Lubin, only with a mineral quality. Both note pyramids contain olibanum, patchouli and labdanum. They open much differently, but with a similar contrast. Lineage focuses on myrrh opposed to amber and vanilla.
It's funny how color plays a role in our perception of scent. If jade had a smell, I imagine this is what it would smell like. Amouage is always more than a fragrance, but an experience. I feel transported to someplace new and exotic with each sniff. The kind of place that's difficult to leave.
