Fair weather period
Hay chypre, that's what I like to call it. A completely new experience, because the hay should already be in by late fall (even in good weather), at least in North America where this famous Indian summer exists. The forests there glow beautifully golden, yellow and dark green in the autumn sun.
And golden yellow with brown speckles, that's how I see this scent.
You can still smell a little bit of sandalwood. Which I find amazing, because the fragrance is a mini and already very old, after all, it dates back to the 70s. It is also spicy and there is a minimal scent of forest green, but I have no idea what that might be.
Then the oakmoss comes out very strongly and lingers until the sandalwood, golden-brown finish. Yes, this eau de cologne is golden brown and a little smoky and absolutely unsweet, and it lasts an astonishingly long time.
This fragrance is worth testing several times, because it keeps drifting in a different direction. At first I didn't have too many floral associations, but now I imagine that I do smell something, but more like a peony that has just faded, no longer smells so fragrant and is slowly breathing its last on a bed of cedar wood. But I could be wrong!
They still exist, the good, old, fine chypre fragrances, you can find them in the depths of the internet and have to fork out quite a bit for the tiny bottles; but I think they are worth every penny.
