So nice to package "Stinking Geranium" like this...
Pffft... Floral-spicy sweetness hits me...
Fortunately, the sweetness is quickly overshadowed by a very interesting herb-spicy flower.
And for some reason, I immediately think of one of the wild forms of geranium - but it's not in there?!
But what is this "Rupprechtskraut"??? Quickly Googled... oh no - I actually recognized a fragrance note blind - I'm as proud as a peacock!
Rupprechtskraut = Geranium robertianum = commonly known as "Stinking Geranium" - I have plenty of that in my garden, and when you remove it, you quickly find out where the "stinking" in the name comes from... oh dear, and that in the perfume?
No, the scent doesn't "stink" like the herb, don't worry! But it does give the fragrance a very herbaceous-green note that I actually quite like.
Labdanum drips balsamically over the bitter flowers, patchouli adds some earthy depth, and soon warm amber notes flow into the composition.
A gentle, floral-spicy oriental that I find absolutely unisex and whose underlying, warm-resinous minimal sweetness I even enjoy.
Here too, as with some other Nabeel fragrances, I personally find the bottle rather ugly. But IF I buy a fragrance, it's because I like the scent - the bottle is secondary for me in doubt.
Sillage and longevity are - typical for the house - really good.
