The Hunting Man La Rive 2017

Today I simply HAD to test something at DM! My clueless choice randomly fell on this "La Rive". And it truly brings joy to my nose. Because I have the impression of sitting behind juniper bushes and observing a compact olfactory ceremony. The scent does what it wants! And that's a good thing. Because for a "cheap one," it has quite a lot to offer!
At my observation post, where it smells of juniper berries and fresh wood, I feel at home. What unfolds before me resembles fragrant landscape cinema. There are apple trees sharing their space with lemon trees, in whose thorny branches and twigs one can find spice flags. Icy ginger almost makes one shiver, until a layer of warm cinnamon and dark, bristly nutmeg settles on top. A "nut," which botanically isn't one, but looks like one. Now "beans" also join the illustrious circle. Neither blue nor green, but those from the "tonka bean tree" - slightly exotic and sweet. But by no means TOO sweet.
Because between the trees and bushes grow rosemary bushes, with needle-shaped, wax-covered, oil-soaked gray-green leaves. The "spice mix" combination is successful!
When slightly rough-earthy aromas of patchouli and vetiver appear - hats off! Completed with a hint of amber, this creates a rather Mediterranean, beautiful "scent film" that reminds one of pleasant forest walks. WELL done, LA RIVE!!
