As already written with "Musta", the Nakunas seemingly have an overarching basis - and that's why "Iho" seems a bit like its little sister. Still a vanilla (-ambroxane) fluffy - but here much sweeter and lighter, without leather and darker tones.

"Iho" is more powdery, more citric, almost reminiscent of make-up and iris scents. However, without completely discarding its woody side. A soft, velvety scent to put inside. Where "Musta" was still tart and all autumn, here is a lot of love and rather spring. Praiseworthy and lovely. Like a luxurious raspberry yoghurt in a bowl of light wood. Minimal incense here too. Vanilla zero sticky and cheap. Everything beautiful and round. I can understand a certain "hairspray" note, I have probably combined it with powder and make-up, that doesn't bother me too much. On the contrary, there could be more of it. More youth, more rebellion, more revolt. More edge and more character. So far the Nakunas seem incredibly simple. Fine - but stuffy. Almost like an Ikea collection for everyone and from the niche special offer. This could not be further from "handmade" or courageous.

Flacon: noble, somewhat monotonous
Sillage: solidly perceptible (the Nakunas, however, seem a little like layer scents, there rather the base)
Shelf life: 7 hours I let myself be tasty

Conclusion: an Ambroxan Smoky that suits me. Almost a bit powdery and feminine, yet woody enough. But unfortunately it doesn't tempt you to jump for joy either
