Honey on Emerald
The opening presents a classic soap, spicy, dominated by zest, serious, harsh, with vetiver seeming to come through. I expect a classic chypre. Coriander and ylang might at most serve as background music. A hint of sweetness could come from the ylang.
After almost half an hour, the clove makes its appearance, clove soap. I associate it with an older aristocratic lady in black, yet the floral notes approach cautiously, so I am not yet tired of the scent. The harshness becomes milder, the sweetness of the myrrh tree with its warm earthy, balsamic scent grows stronger, and I realize that it has supported the fragrance early on, as otherwise, I would not have liked it from the start. It would have been too strict and harsh for me. Apparently, the rose and jasmine also play a significant role, without being perceived individually, as all the scents I like contain rose.
It remains serious, spicy, sometimes a hint of leather flashes through, but also a bit of chocolate; could that come from the patchouli? Citrusy grass, probably vetiver, maintains freshness and allies itself with the spiciness. The flowers dance in the background, breaking through the somewhat stiff masculine ranks. The clove has taken a step back, ready to merge with the others, ultimately leading to a warm spicy, slightly floral, increasingly balsamic, somewhat oriental scent that is absolutely suitable for both genders. Indeed, very versatile; with each wear, it reveals a slightly different face, a different perspective, which shows its high quality to me.
There is nothing chemical or synthetic here; it smells very much of natural high-quality ingredients. A classic, very mature scent that presupposes the maturity of the wearer.
I perceive the scent as dark green like verbena, perhaps with brown inclusions, or dark gold. Brocade. Evening mood. Silence. Serious, indeed like old paintings. And yet there is something cheerful, like a flutter of thick eyelashes, a smile that makes me think of manuka honey. Applied to my skin.
