Fresh hay from the herb meadow
The smell of fresh hay is simply wonderful. And if it also comes from a herb meadow, you also have the diverse abundance of all the green and flowering fragrance dispensers growing there in your "luggage". Harvested in the morning shortly after sunrise, dried in the sun of the day, it has now developed its unique aroma, which can vary from meadow section to meadow section.
Minty chords with which the fragrance appears fresh are supported by grassy and some "austere" aromas. If you then smell yourself deep into it, you will also notice very bitter-earthy scents, also slightly bitter camphor-like undertones.
What makes the fragrance of "Mandala" so special is its long shelf life and its ability to change, which all elements, from cheerful - bright over herbaceous - bitter and spicy - dark up to earthy - grassy and almost medical - balsamic... etc...considered. There's not a minute of boredom coming up.
It is as if one were lying in the middle of such a freshly mown herb meadow, watching the train of clouds and getting the course of the day of a fragrance with awake senses olfactorically "kredenzt".
Also for my nose "Mandala" needs getting used to, because a perfume, which was created exclusively from spices, herbs and resins/woods, I had not yet smelled in the form.

Opens cinnamon/cardamom/spice pantry. Up-close a herbal, green tone flanks the spices. Mild resemblance to Lineage. Difficult to wear imo.

Not sure which I dislike more: the heavy pseudo peppery woody musky ambergris note a.k.a. ambroxan, or the unpleasant long-lasting sourness.

A sweet and spicy cola-resin combo with smoky incense, green hay and bright ambergris. Strange, magical, wonderful. Tauer on LSD.
