Citrus-fresh but in an unfortunately familiar way
Certain sharp citrus-fruity fragrances can come across smelling like cleaning liquid. While I wouldn’t say Mists of Time is there, I think it does come a little close. The various fruit notes can run together and are more tart than juicy. Maybe that's what makes it "candied" orange.
It isn't just a wash of notes running together, though. If you try, you can pick up different layers. This is a scent that rewards putting your nose close to the skin. Just be aware that, if you’re not taking in the cypress and patchouli mixing with the bergamot, candied orange, and lime zest, et al., it can smell like a freshly-cleaned hallway. Those extra layers make it more interesting, but ultimately it's not for me.
