Flying Elephant

First Sniff ....

Smell flask to hand, expectation is something dirty animalic, parallels to Leather Oud by Dior were mentioned but .... None of this is true !

My first thought afterwards was:
Is it really a Nishane ? Why the misleading name ? Where is the strong animalism ?
The beginning is a bluish moss bomb that is powdery, reminiscent of the drydown of Blue oud from Arabian Oud. Bischen clean impression with a very subtle animalic tone. The first part lasts about 2-3 hours. The second part in the drydown is then the final one, the musk note recedes strongly but is still present. The remaining ingredients now kick in and the fragrance becomes more masculine and unisex.

Now to my subjective opinion. I definitely imagined it differently. The name and the notes alone. It is very well crafted and at a high level, but I don't know if I will keep the fragrance ..
