Fleeting Bliss: Aromatic Impressions of a Summer Day
This fragrance evokes the essence of a summer day in a Christmas tree farm. Picture the air thick with the vibrant medley of pines, herbs, flowers, and grass; a sensory stroll through nature's tapestry. It opens with a refreshing burst, reminiscent of a sunlit meadow in full bloom.

As you follow the dusty tractor road through the fields, the scent paints a vivid picture of a rustic landscape. While it doesn't linger for long, the perfume creates a sense of mystery and relaxation, transporting you to a timeless space of liveliness. The combination of notes is well-balanced, offering a brief yet delightful experience, akin to sipping from the cup of eternal summers. Despite its short duration, the fragrance leaves a lasting impression of nature's simplicity on the senses.

Excellent extrait version of Felt, enhanced darkness and depth
Sampling the latest release from Hendley Perfumes, Purple Felt, a 2023 variation on Felt (2019), one of my favorites of the line, a resinous fragrance that I quite love. Purple Felt is an extrait concentration version, whereas the original was EDP concentration, and, paraphrasing from perfumer/owner Hans Hendley’s e-mail on the release, the increased conifer resins yield greater warmth and a blueberry rose aspect. I certainly get decent amount of rose and spices, the features that pair so well with dense, woody resins in the original, and its increased density definitely feels like an enhancement of the original. I’ll have to do a side-by-side with the original at some point but for now this feels like an easy winner and, to me, slight improvement on the original, a rewarding resinous blend featuring plenty of fir balsam and incense notes surrounded by rose and cardamom. Very nice stuff, and fittingly higher-performing than the original.

Purple Felt is already sold out but hopefully will make a return. It has roughly the standard pricing of the house, $250/160/85 for 50/30/15ml.

Incense-like cardamom-nutmeg play with flowery-resinous base. Smells like Swedish confectionery in Christmas time. Becomes skin scent in 2h.

Absolutely wonderful if you like fir balsam, and I do. It becomes softly rosy here, stronger resinous, and distinctly framed with incense.

This forest is not purple,
But green.
It has a strong resemblance to a Christmas tree.
In the base, the incense is more pronounced than rose/sandalwood.

I love balsam fir and it dominates here, with herbal, woody, and smoky components: Party in the sawmill!

Summer forest. A small campfire of freshly needled branches, cardamom, and resin sizzling in the flames, surrounded by delicate roses.

Beautifully subtle
Drops of resin
In a woody symbiosis of spices & balsam
First dominated by cardamom & opoponax
Then gentle rose & sandalwood
