Hope dies last....

I know I'm not supposed to hurt anyone's feelings when I'm commenting. And I'm gonna put it all in a very good way. But it's just on my mind to write a comment about this.
Whenever I try to love Le Labo I get somehow disappointed. Maybe I shouldn't, but hope dies last I've been feverishly looking forward to August / September where the City Exclusives are finally available.
And Mousse de Chene was at the top of my wish list. I love oakmoss. And I know what it smells like. I also know that Le Labo fragrances don't necessarily smell like what they're called. Or often only the top note was designed accordingly.
But this one, no, this one has nothing to do with oakmoss. For me, anyway. If there was a top note, it was gone after about 30 seconds with me. I can't even describe what she was like anymore. What remained with I had to wash up. Urgently. A base I've known from other fragrances. Something on dark spicy made with cumin note. With in this case unbearable Sillage for me.
I'm really disappointed.
I hope all the other testers / porters don't get it like this!
