Again: Yes, but.....
There are quite a few fragrances that I like, that I want to experience again and again, but please not as a perfume on my skin. Tulsivivah! is one of them. The scent fascinates me and I imagine spraying it in the summer on the stoop in front of my open bedroom window, letting the wind carry a whiff into my boudoir from time to time;) This is how I could truly enjoy it, and I have managed to tame many a scent that was too overpowering for me.

Tulsivivah! hits me too hard with its spices right from the start. I love pure sandalwood, but here it gives the top note a strange balsamic sweetness that makes me recoil at first. This fades quickly, but the floral heart note takes it a step further. Now I actually miss fresh air that could lend the fragrance some transparency.

Maybe I am just too analytically inclined to feel the aura of the scent as fitting for me. Or perhaps it’s simply various fragrance notes that seem too dense, too intense, and overwhelming. In the dry down, cedarwood reconciles me a bit, but it takes too long for me to categorize the scent as a perfume for myself. However, who knows, maybe I’ll treat myself to a bottle as a fine room fragrance, and here the circle closes back to the title of my comment.

Fundamentally Joyful Fragrance
First and second test of AugustA. Citrusy-spicy and aromatic green. Surprisingly sweet. Like dusted with grape sugar or like those little individually wrapped fruit-flavored grape sugars. Over time, spices can be detected, cardamom, which is always very aromatic but sometimes comes off a bit soapy. But it shouldn't be in there, rather coriander. Well, maybe just a pinch? This, in combination with the citrus and wood, is beautifully done and unusual. Here, citrus is very rounded, and the green of the basil is not predominantly herbaceous-crisp, but rather aromatic-balsamic, which then transitions nicely into the soft woods. So soft! A summer scent, but different from the well-known fresh ones. Initially even slightly irritating due to the sweetness, which makes it interesting. The second time, you already look forward to it. The scent impression skips the typical Indian-spicy notes that we usually associate with food, as well as the kitchen herb flair of the herbs and definitely the refreshing towel feeling. Cheerfulness, balanced and warm.
Can be very well worn by green-loving men and women in summer and at other times.
A fundamentally joyful fragrance. That's something good, not meant to be derogatory at all.
Could be good, it gets better with each wear.

Basil-flavored tablet candy and aloe vera hand cream on a faint creamy-woody cashmeran base.

Hindu wedding. Basil blends with bergamot and delicately spicy, sweet sandalwood. Close to the skin with musk. Deliciously gourmand.

It fits perfectly. We both like each other. Balsamic summer scent, zesty, slightly peppery - healthy spicy and a bit green. My summer fragrance.

A liaison of Tam Dao, Bergamot 22, and Acqua Viva. The citrus note lasts throughout the entire fragrance and remains subtly woody. Amazing!

Beautiful soft summer scent that, despite its softness, has a slightly fresh-spicy note. Green impression of basil, without too much "herbiness."

Unusual; the citrus combined with basil and coriander turns into cucumber water on my skin. Refreshing, but I wouldn't want to wear it generally.

On my skin, it's almost creamy-peppery. With little citrus splinters. Catchy yet completely relaxed & unique.

Basil gummy bears, sweet and fruity-sour. Lots of sandalwood. Slightly vanillic, citrusy, spicy.
Very creamy-green. Too heavy and dense for me.

Blind test fail in the top note, I smell lime and sage. Tulsi? Yes, definitely.
Cedar and musk complement perfectly, a lovely summer scent, absolutely unisex.
