An Experience of a Special Kind ?!?
As so many other fragrances before, "Crimson Desire | The Misk Company" crossed my path as part of an exciting chain letter.
Warned by the contributions of the previous testers in the thread such as "...don't test it in a place where you want to stay afterwards..." or "...makes it to my top ten horror list!...", I was slightly unsure whether I should really risk a test - especially on my precious skin.
Bravely, I finally whispered 'Who dares wins!' to myself, firmly pressed the spray head of the small pocket atomizer with the inconspicuous liquid inside twice and let the certain doom take its course.
What followed was something I had never experienced before. In fact, this was the first fragrance - and I would not truly describe myself as squeamish - that made me rush to the window and fling it wide open immediately after spraying!
In the air was an unexpectedly strong animalic-urine note that inevitably led me to send fervent prayers to all known and unknown gods of the universe that none of my colleagues would visit my workspace for the next 30 or better yet 60 minutes. What had I been thinking testing THIS fragrance not at home, where I could only attract the displeasure of my partner, but at the office...! Why did the fragrance have to project so overwhelmingly...! How could I explain to my colleagues where this peculiar scent in the air was coming from...?
After a few minutes of sheer panic, I finally surrendered to my fate and cautiously brought the back of my left hand to my nose. How surprised I was when I realized that the penetrating smell, which rigorously filled the air around me, was not at any time perceptible on my skin... 'Very nice, I don't have to chop off my left hand after all,' I thought with relief.
As time went on, the fragrance fortunately became less demanding. Spicy and fruity notes took over the command, and compared to the stormy start, it became somewhat uneventful.
In the drydown, the fragrance ultimately managed to convince me; musk, amber, and subtle animalic notes reminded me faintly of beloved fragrances like Atlantic Ambergris II and War and Peace II.
So, what is the conclusion of my selfless effort in testing "Crimson Desire | The Misk Company"?
If both oneself - as well as of course one's surroundings - have survived the opening of this composition unscathed, and one could also resist the strong urge to scrub the fragrance off, one is rewarded after a somewhat ordinary fruity-spicy phase with a wonderful drydown.
But to be honest, I don't want to have to wait 8 hours for a fragrance to truly appeal to me...
