Eclat d'Orient ID Parfums 2009

If the scent is supposed to be oriental, it is truly a scandal.*gg*

Now I am trying to write something about this, which is extremely difficult for me.

I wanted to like it so much...

Freshly sprayed, it comes across as somewhat fresh, but also powdery.
It has something mild and milky about it, which I really like, if it weren't for...the wood.
Actually, I like sandalwood, but here it comes off quite harsh and especially prominent.

To be precise, in the weak scent aura, I only smell wood, and I don't like that.
If you hold your nose directly to the skin, you can also smell flowers and soft notes, but only faintly.
I can't help it, but the wood does not fit at all with the other notes.
For me, it is a woody-floral scent. I constantly try to find it beautiful. It is beautiful, but the wood...

In the base, the musk comes in, and unfortunately, it has a very animalistic stench note for me.

The scent fluctuates in my perception between beautiful and Eww-ugh.
