Morocco on a Summer Evening
I tested "Origin" in 2019 at Bloom in London, along with several other fragrances. Of the three scents I sprayed, I initially liked it the least, due to its sharp, bitter opening. I still don't know whether I think it's great or terrible, but it's certainly very unique and special. However, "Origin" became wonderfully soft, powdery, yet fresh and light within minutes, and after a while, it grew warmer and more oriental - simply irresistible! I bought it and have never regretted it. A wonderfully complex fragrance. Even though I've been wearing it for over a year, I want to sniff my wrist every five minutes. Definitely not for very young women and more suited for evenings and autumn/winter than for spring. However, I wear it carefree at any time of day and year, except when it's very hot. When I close my eyes, the scent transports me to Morocco on a not-too-hot summer evening, to the courtyard of a riad, where the fragrances of exotic plants mingle with those of spices from the kitchen. Somewhere beyond the wall, traditional music seeps in, a bit unfamiliar to European ears at first, almost discordant, yet at the same time promising. One lies on soft cushions, lazily indulging, occasionally taking a slow puff from the shisha, and enjoying the moment.

Dream Scent
I tested this fragrance in London, found it great, and got several samples.

After trying it for a few days, I am more and more impressed.
At first, you smell a very pleasant rose that is by no means too floral. Along with it are beautiful, spicy, and warm notes.
The top note really lasts a long time - definitely 30 minutes.

Once the rose has faded, warm, pleasant oriental notes remain. It’s sweet, but not cloyingly sweet, spicy, but not biting, and overall just beautiful and pleasant.

Towards the end, it becomes a bit vanilla-like, but still retains its overall oriental flair.

The sillage could be stronger, especially at the price of £115 for just 50ml, but with 3 sprays, you can get through the day well.
I would estimate the noticeable longevity at about 8 hours.

No rose, vanilla, etc. smells like a predator cage at the zoo on me. Sharp and harsh with a weird fecal note on a sweet base.
