*This is what outer space smells like*
The abandoned space station that was once built at the north pole of Ganymede - Jupiter's moon - floats lonely through space. No human has visited it in decades. It's too far a way back after humans crossed the borders of the solar system. Now the space station orbits Jupiter alone. To withstand the extreme weather on the icy moon, it has been built of hard stainless steel. The moon's iron core had provided enough resources to build the main hub from which humanity had ventured into the far reaches of the wave valley. Now an ice storm had been raging on the surface for a decade. The windows of the station have given way to the weather over the years. The wind alone still sweeps through the abandoned corridors. It carries with it a metallic smell, given off by the constant abrasion of the steel walls. Added to this is the incomparable smell of nothingness, as it only exists in the vast vacuum of space. If you take off the helmet of the space suit, it is the last thing you can smell before the remaining oxygen escapes from your lungs into the vastness of space.
- Oh Ganymede, what are you incomparable -
Hard to describe is this unique fragrance. He forms a light floral, berry, metallic accord. But he is not tangible. So must smell the universe, or maybe the air on earth, if you could smell it.
Ganymede is the largest moon of the solar system (thanks Wikipedia). Accordingly, the durability and sillage are also befitting the status. The fragrance is immediately present and does not change in the 10h, which he holds on my skin.
In my opinion, can be used for any occasion. One will stand out, but not aggressively, but the environment will rather wonder: "What do I actually smell there? Is that..., that can't be, ... yet it must be my counterpart." And then the conclusion can actually only be: "What an interesting and mysterious person he*s."
Unisex should fit. I would love to smell it on a woman. I imagine it would be fantastic. Probably the mainstream nose will scream more masculine, though.
Test the fragrance by all means and let me know what you think! :)
Best regards

Funny, sometimes floral metallic scents are what you associate space with. Your commentary is great writing!

Gscheidhaferl mode on: This is the smell of the "fairest of mortals," Ganymede, whom Zeus (Latin Jupiter) abducted to Olympus in the form of an eagle because of his beauty. The moon is named after him and, I am sure, also the fragrance! I also like the fragrance very much and wear it often, also because it is very versatile!
