Scent 44 Cognoscenti 2021

Dischord and Chaos
The initial blast of geosmin truly sets the tone for a rather discordant affair. No. 44 (Fire and Rain) immediately reveals that characteristic self-taught perfumer dauntlessness. The elements of fire and rain are obscured by other...matter, of the sour, dour, and unsettled kind. Woody aromachems suspend in a strange blur of shapeless elements that appear to be represent notes in the presented pyramid, but with visible seams.
The result is an olfactory cloudcuckooland that is foreign to my idea of balanced perfumery gestalt. The cardinal rule was also broken, the geosmin was dosed just a tiddly amount more so than it should have. This is a big no-no. None of this is pleasant.
