An Amazing Fragrance
This fragrance reminds me of a description I heard of how David Bowie smelled to Will Butler of Arcade Fire:
"It smelled like if an ancient pine forest had a massive forest fire -- but like, a month ago. So you get the new growth of the grass and the moisture, but still, there's an undercurrent of pain. But also of smoke, so kind of like marshmallows...? It's powerful."
Bowie died before this fragrance was marketed by Floris, so that we can rule out this is what he was wearing. But the description could be for this. The opening is a huge release of several scents that is fair to call polarizing when reading comments on this fragrance.
It doesn't take too long for the smoky, green forest to come through. In its last stages, hours later, it can smell a bit creamy or like marshmallows, but the underlying greens and woodiness are there.
I use it on my skin. One spray to the chest just below the neck and one to my right wrist lasted 8ish hours with heavy sillage for the 1st couple of hours.
It was very pleasurable for me. I really got the feel of a well-crafted fragrance that had a lot of nuance and complexity.

This could never be unisex.
The sillage and longevity of this fragrance is unbelievable. It's a shame it is shockingly foul smelling. The opening made me nauseous, I couldn't wash it off at the time so had to continue wearing it for another hour (I had foolishly tested it in the crook of my elbow). The smell is reminiscent of old, putrid, liquifying plastic that has been set alight in a junk yard somewhere. It is revolting. During this long long long hour I waited for the heart notes and the top notes, even any of the base notes other than smoke to come through but it just got worse and worse. I'm a woman, but I am not averse to trying fragrances that are marketed towards men. This I could not stomach. I have had a shower, and washed and scrubbed the crook of my elbow until the skin was clearly upset. I can still smell something. God help me.

Scary opening
I sprayed it on 3 hours ago and was quite shocked by the top. This is smoky and resinous yet green and balsamic. Smoke is more pitch black tar kind rather than frankincense if anyone is wondering. After 20-30 minutes it does settle down and you start getting galbanum, cedar, herbs and lavender. Unusual take on barbershop. Strictly for gentlemen and fans of old school classic heavy fougeres.

Don't let the opening scare you, pretty sure it was intentionally made and it backfires with most. Give it time and beautiful heart will show itself. Good idea to air yourself out a bit before you want to visit public spaces otherwise it will shock people.

Interesting, very green, and it can come across as pine, and fresh pine wood. Reminds me of a Pino Silvestre, but with quality ingredients

The overpowering tar/smoke scent in the beginning is definitely not for me, I had to wash it off after five minutes.
