For Osmanthus Fans

It's a slightly smoky tea highlighted by a fine osmanthus. I sense a mentholated freshness lurking in the background (frankincense?).

I would define this fragrance as semi-classy, aiming for great depth of spirit but Smoky Soul never seems to fully reveal itself.
Yes, the whole is delicate, even too much so...The depth of the soul got lost along the way and if I must admit it is well crafted, the experience remains rather dull. The longevity and projection are average, so each aspect of Smoky Soul is ultimately restrained.
The scent is well suited to a lonely professor in search of a long-lost spark.

You already posted this on the English-speaking Parfumo.com site. So why post it in English again on the German-speaking site Parfumo.de? A translation would be helpful!

Indeed, while the tea/osmanthus combination is spot on, it lacks the development that Corticchiato usually does so well - and yes, for an 'extrait', it's strangely short-lived…

Yes I may be a bit harsh because it is Corricchiato and I usually love his finesse. Looking forward to his new creation.
