My annotations on Akelarre by nBitor
Initially I sincerely thank Thomas for his wonderful assistance of his pieces. When I first smelled this perfume from the glass flutes at The Perfumery Barcelona my lungs sank and I felt like I was in a dark cave. This perfume is excessively powerful, disturbing, and disrupting. The opening smells like an animal peed on a nutritious dirt, as the fragrance develops it turns into a a sort of cave that was used to store swords. Has a very distinctive metallic edge but not in a good way. The dry down is abominably earthy, animal, damp, and the perfume starts choking you out. You start to feel like being buried 6 feet under the ground where other decomposing stuff once lay. Very artistic, and successful; HOWEVER, definitely unwearable for most and even repulsive.
Scent: 3/10
Longevity: 10/10
Sillage: 10/10
Distressing people: Succesful
Everyone should try this to view the artistic side of it.
