Pleasant incense mixture
With Orca I have to think about many things but not about perfume. Also not necessarily about Free Willy. I was curious about the ingredient Choya Nakh, which has only two recent perfumes in the Parfumo database. The whole thing is - if I understood it correctly - distilled oil from heated shells. How exactly do you imagine this? One roasts wild mussels slowly in a large cauldron, a choya. The mussels release a light brown oil with an intense aroma, but are destroyed during the process. Choya Nakh is said to smell of the sea, mossy and smoky. It is said to give scents more depth. Against this background, the combination with various resins and plants should be recommended. Resins, amber and the nard are available, the best conditions for this Indian oil production
Even without knowing this, a salty, oceanic element is noticeably present in the background of the fragrance. But this does not dominate. If I had to compare one of the well-known salty oceanic scents with it, I would use squid but in a drier and therefore not so "powdery" version, which is disturbing for me. This facet is gradually receding. The already strong incense gets now even more stage presence.
It seems sacral, rather friendly but not bright. This is due to the Indian nard. Its olfactory footprint is characterized by warm and sensual herbaceousness. This spicy-warm element resonates in the incense. The scent is sometimes difficult to describe, especially when you consider that the honey note orca does not allow the honey to become sweet, but the wood is soaked and now smells like a honey mixture. This note joins the nard and is rather unconventional to call.
Hours later the picture is a different one. Resins and nard have said goodbye, only a pleasantly cool and bright incense lingers, but does not do so too strongly. I have to think of a starry night in summer, my own thoughts wander into the stellar distance, the mind is in a transcendental state. Beautiful to perceive for the comfortable being, in everyday life probably too contemplative for me.
Orca then fades away and is not an incense scent for everyone because of the spicy admixture. All in all a beautiful fragrance which one must know to appreciate. In everyday life I could probably not do that.
