/L as in HarLey
My first encounter with the Nasengold brand really made me go into raptures yesterday - the test by G. was so successful that I will empty my bottle of Hermès "Eau de Pamplemousse Rose" (super-super beautiful, but flies away quite quickly) as quickly as possible to let this great grapefruit scent slide in its place next. I also tested /L. And that turned out to be quite a contrast. Also /L starts with a tasty, but in the spicy direction: thyme, rosemary, ginger - and in a decent amount.
And another component that causes me headaches right from the start. It smells to me like leather and gasoline. Not of fine, delicate glove leather, but of a rocker leather jacket with a matching Harley. Not unpleasant, but always irritating. By the way, this is the moment when I decide that, for once, a fragrance described as unisex is more of a male scent for me. It's not so much because of the individual components, but the overall impression is simply masculine.
And don't tell me now about violets, lily of the valley and orange blossom in the heart note. I can smell them (not at all for me individually, but overall as a distinctly floral note), but the leather-gasoline/smoke mixture above and below is clearly present throughout. Later it is supplemented by wood and vetiver (the somewhat spiky version).
/L is extremely difficult for me to describe, because for example "gasoline smoke" sounds negative, but is not meant that way in any way. It is a fragrance puzzle scent that makes me want to stick my nose to my wrist all the time. The second scent of nasal gold I'm testing is also full of surprises.
It confuses me, it challenges me, I can enjoy it, but I'm sure it won't end up on the wish list for myself. But whether it could end up on my husband's birthday table (as a completely unselfish gift, of course) is a completely different matter... What is clear in any case: I will definitely test the others - and all the other fragrances that Nasengold will create in the future! G. and /L are both wonderfully non-conformist, surprising, scented works of art that delighted me for hours! I am really glad that I stumbled upon these treasures.
