Love it
Dry opening, settles really nicely. Masculine. Bold, but comforting. Classy, but not overly mature. Smoky, resinous, woody, but not overwhelming. On the flipside of that, I wish it lasted longer. For how bold the notes are, I wish it performed better. Even so, this is really nice, and I might actually buy a whole bottle when they go on sale next year. I've tried a bunch of the city exclusives and this is probably my favorite.

Comfort on a cold day
Every time I spray this I'm transported, walking down the street in an unfamiliar ancient city in the dead of winter. I can see my breath in front of my face and bury my face in a thick wool scarf. I'm my hands I have a steaming cup of a dark black tea, thick and sweet with honey. Passing by a local Orthodox Church, wisps of frankincense cut through the biting air, oddly inviting.

Inside an old English library, I'm reading Dostoevsky. This is what I smell like.

Resinous smoky warm-dry woods; initial harshness disappears over time a little bit, apart from that, it remains mainly linear.

If you could make liquor from Benzoin, this would be it.

Visiting your religious Babushka. Cozy smell of an old wooden house. It doesnt offend you; it's just something that you learned to love.

Snobbish frankincense with a too soft amber base. Pass!

An amber beauty. Like Armani Prive Encens Satin, but less incense and more dust and powder. Great for winter time in its style.
