Who Did It Better?
Seattle Chocolate is a remarkably unique take on chocolate, spinning it in a more dusty dry and powdered direction, with a peculiar Siberian fir note and a lot of woods and resins. The cocoa itself is woody and dry, avoiding "gourmand" or dessert suggestions. There is an unusual herbal "top note" that gives a somewhat artemisia/sage/dittony connotation, and a unique aldehydic sparkle. I spite of the fact they are made with natural materials, neither the cocoa nor the fir needle are particularly realistic, opting for a more "fantasy" take. It dries down intensely woody, dark, resinous and dusty, and becomes suspiciously similar to another PNW indie oldie.
It really is a beautiful creation, with that rough and rugged handmade perfume feel I oh so adore. But unique? I'm not sure, but I think Slumberhouse did it first with their Ore.
That's okay Ellen. This one still rocks.
