Pleasant memories
Sudestada brings me the memories of a fragrance family that I've enjoyed throughout the years: the family of Mythical Woods (Profumi del Forte), Black Afgano (Nasomatto), Mina & Amante (Note di Profumum) and a ton of others.
It's extremely woody heavy and what Sudestada pulls off nicely is the better balance on the brighter side of the range: a nuance of citrus fruit or citrus flower further in the base (a paradox in itself). I get a facet of unclean licorice too (or mabe it's the tobacco) that ties the cedar-sandal wood profile I've been loving for a long time.
Although you might misunderstand this to be the usual "honey-musk" that pretends to be an oud fragrance (as other literally state), with Sudestada you actually get what you'd expect from those but more successfully. It's still "open" enough to be worn during summer evenings more easily than the aformentioned ones. I like wearing this genre during summer evenings because of the cocoa-tonka effect you can bring out but I've worn these much more during winter.
