Chypre for gothys
For me, Chypre Mousse starts with a strong mushroom-like note, plus a wild jumble of herbs, which all come across as rather crunchy and bitter. I can't really make out any of the herbal notes, they rather give the impression of an overgrown herb garden in a dilapidated estate. I also smell something slightly musty, like wet leaves on the compost or something similar.
Underneath is a fragrance that I know best from a chestnut blossom honey from Italy - minimally sweet, then slightly bitter, very aromatic and somewhat medicinal. Maybe a touch of roasted chestnut. With me nothing becomes balsamic, only green and mossy. If it would be a color, the perfume would be green-brown with silvery speckles.
The durability is more than fabulous, you already have to brush and soap on it to get rid of the scent.
The fragrance can certainly be worn by men and women, in spring and autumn it suits me especially well. But I can't wear it often, because I have to be in the mood for it, otherwise the fragrance will carry me and not the other way round. Nevertheless, for lovers of tart chypre it is definitely worth testing.
Funnily enough, in an American perfume forum, chypre mousse is also affectionately called "Eau de Crypt" (a suitable scent for Morticia Adams?), but that actually hits the nail on the head.
