In the belly of the beast

Esta es una edición limitada de 100 botellas con algunos materiales exclusivos e irremplazables. La salida es muy potente, cuero, notas saladas y azafrán, evoluciona hacia unas resinas brillantes, diría que hasta algo frescas y ya en el secado destaca el oud y maderas. Pensaba, por el nombre, que el Ambergris sería más prominente, pues no, no destaca en absoluto, algo perceptible pero no primer actor. En resumen, buen perfume, experiencia olfativa muy evolutiva, que es lo que busco desde hace tiempo, más que la linealidad de la gran mayoría de perfumes.

Darkness, cuir & sea.

Animalic smell, Ambergris? but light, not very animalic. This is not Silent the Sea, as if it were a skin more than leather, a dark, humid and salty smell (it made me remember the TF Oud Minerale algae smell)

This perfume, surprisingly, has reminded me a lot (for those who know it, you can get an idea) Vicuna leather by Katana Parfums, like this one is elegant, and give me the same idea of a new black leather jacket (not a old brown leather) but where CV is leathery/citrusy this one is leathery/aquatic.

Dark sea

A dark, sea fragrance with noticeable animalic notes. Compared to the regular version, the natural oud adds a slight petrol/rubbery smell. The white amber isn't particularly noticeable Projection is very strong, lasting a good 12 hours on the skin. The drydown is more similar to the regular version, while the opening is completely different.

Thalassophobia - the beast lurks in the deep sea trench

I have now taken a long time to really take in the fragrance and fully understand it.
But I'll start with the packaging and bottle. The packaging is typical Toskovat, the only difference here is the cardboard slipcase with a few illustrations and a description of the rare components. The bottle is again Toskovat-standard, but this one has a golden lid and the number on the back of the label. I saw 02/100.
I really would have liked more creativity here, because first impressions count, right?
Big price and little presentation.

After that, I told myself that it's the fragrance that counts and not the packaging, which ends up gathering dust in the cupboard.
I was immediately captivated by the first spray. An intense, almost overwhelming blend of choya nakh, saffron and sea water immediately unfolded. I would never have expected that, but I stood there and understood what David was trying to tell me. Depth, fear and no way out.
Time passed and what remained was the Assam oud and the white ambergris, but really. I couldn't believe it, because it was so strongly dosed that it almost completely drowned out the rest of the notes. There I was, trapped in a deep-sea monster with no way out.
But David said: "Today I remembered the only way out is through." But how?
I am left with a feeling of respect and awe, respect for the craftsmanship and the story that "The Belly of the Beast" tells.
Anyone who has the opportunity to purchase or test it should go for it. It really is an adventure.

Expedition to the Mariana Trench

I would paint the following picture: you are standing on a coastal cliff in the freezing cold, staring at the roaring waves. An expedition into the depths of the ocean is imminent. I look at the rusty and metallic submarine that will send me into the depths at any moment.
For the first few meters as I sink, I can still see algae and other greenery, but shortly afterwards it becomes empty and dark. As the bottom gets closer and closer and the emptiness seems endless, I look at the vintage leather seats of the submarine. The bottom is close enough to touch when I suddenly spot a huge monster head in the distance. The whole time I didn't realize that I had landed in the habitat of a giant beast. When I realized this, I did everything I could to escape to the surface. The monster roared and growled in the depths of the sea as it sank its fangs into my submarine. At the last second, I made it to the surface to a piece of old driftwood

In short: I get an extremely deep-sea and mystery vibe. Every fan of such profiles should give this fragrance a try :)
