A cozy fur blanket

Initial explosion of bitter citrus and slightly smoky cardamom (and what felt like a hint of cumin?) dissipated from my body in under ~20 minutes. A cozy, warm and well rounded composition of sandalwood, sweet cedar and several other notes I haven't heard before waited underneath.

I spent the first ~3 hours in a gentle powdery cloud. I was worried it would give me a headache, but the woody sweetness was mellow and subdued, so I never felt unwell (unless you count "lazy" and "sleepy" as an affliction). Once I got out of the woods, a field of violets softly swaying on the wind awaited me. I have confirmed with my partner that somewhere at this point it stopped projecting and settled close to my skin. In another ~2 hours the violets also faded away and left just the soft fluffy base (which took another ~3 hours to dry out). It made me feel so safe and warm I just wanted to lay in bed the whole day instead of doing any work, lol.

This should be great for a lazy weekend during colder parts of the year, as it envelops the wearer like a soft fur blanket; but when I want to take it out in warm weather I spray it on my clothes instead — they can't bring out the warmth underneath, but trap the upper notes pretty well, so I end up smelling like an adorable fresh cardamom pastry ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و
