Emerald Green Anna Zworykina

There is a place in your beryllium of fennel green and bitter mint, where flower roots dance like white dew in the cool morning air. In the green glow from the absinthe chalices, I see the licorice snails crawling, through the burning cloves, the crunching leaves, and the pepper dust on the carpets. Ah, my throat glows like medicine. The cognac shimmers in the dim room, in the light of a flickering lamp made of bitter galbanum and diffuse spicy-balsamic mists. My head, carried by the wooden tables, shimmers silver from cardamom, glowing through the night like cinnamon stars in dark labdanum.

According to her own statements, Anna Zworykina creates olfactory landscapes from 100% natural materials. Her scents are captured moments, escape routes into dreams and fairy tales, connections to long-term memory, making the wearer a co-author of their stories.
In "Emerald Green," I dive through a veil of bright roots and flowers (especially jasmine, violet leaf, moss) into the absinthe-typical fennel-anise-mint notes, bitter wormwood, which is intensified by spicy-green, peppery-herb notes (galbanum, violet leaf, angelica seeds) and sharp clove. As a co-author, I find myself in a Parisian absinthe café at the end of the 19th century. The air is saturated with cognac, and despite various incense resins, it feels very medicinally bitter deep into the heart. PallasCC aptly described it below as a bitter herbal liqueur. Fresh juniper woods and silvery-spicy cardamom form the bridge to the base, where the clove takes on a cinnamon-like quality, giving the now sweetly warming dark labdanum a sharp spiciness. The stay in Café Le Tambourin projects moderately over many hours.
