Parfum Prissana 2024

I don't necessarily like being the trigger for the question: "What smells so strange here?"
I don't really want to provoke people with my smell. That's why the weird, exotic things are only of limited interest to me. I already knew that Prin Lomros' fragrances can be rather demanding or even difficult from reading past and across. That's why the brand has been rather uninteresting to me up to now.
But now it has finally caught me . I'm now latently infected with the Prin virus.
And that, among other things, through this greenling of a fragrance that not only occupies my nose but also my head.
This exotic green-smoky-ambery melange makes me remember special, unforgettable days in Chiang Mai. There are a multitude of temples there, one more ornate and beautifully designed than the next. Pictures like from a fairy tale, a dream.
But the craziest temple was my favorite. In addition to Buddha, there was also a large statue of Donald Duck among many others. A colorful, humorous hodgepodge and patchwork of colors, pictures and exhibits from a wide variety of cultures was on display here - all welcome. A place for everyone.
In the city, you can find gardens where plants that we put in our rooms as small trees grow into huge trees with fleshy leaves. The air is hot and smoky. The food is exotically spiced and absurdly hot. The people are beautiful, delicate, graceful, calm and polite. Europeans (like me) almost seem like dumb oafs in comparison.
Lomros comes from this country and I can smell it a little in his creation and am a little enchanted.

Like the brightly colored temple, in which the most diverse figures find their place, the fragrance also gives space to exotic as well as homely, old-fashioned associations.
It begins with a smoky note that I find noble. It's not ham that's being smoked here, but dry, green herbs. The fragrance reminds me of the smell of eucalyptus leaves that friends and I threw into the campfire every evening during a trip to Portugal. At the same time, there's a hint of cookhouse odor, a somewhat penetrating, sour scent that reminds me of coriander herb, which I only find pleasant in homeopathic doses in dishes. A little smoker from Bavaria, or wherever the heinies come from, also sneaks into the aroma and puffs sweet clouds of smoke with relish. Caused by a green incense candle, of course. (Merry Christmas!) The fragrance then becomes increasingly sweet, more ambrosial. It always remains smoky. It also creates an olfactory kaleidoscope of green tones. Floral scents meander
gently and sweetly nuanced through the perfume. Spices in the background merge into an aromatic unity and the disruptive note (cookshop & coriander) soon recedes. What I smell is pleasant and somewhat demanding at the same time.
The fragrance lasts hour after hour after hour..becomes sweeter, creamier.
All in all, I smell a fragrance created with experimentation, routine and a fine hand by an outstanding perfumer.
And since it was practically on "special offer" at the souk, it is now mine too.

And the dear family ? Vacillating between ecstasy and irritation. (" Mom, move away a bit. The smell of your "incense stick perfume" together with your cough drop is very irritating right now. I really can't do my homework like this....")
Conclusion: Not only nice, but also useful if you don't necessarily want to help with your homework.
So smelling strange also has its advantages! Thank you Mr. Lomros.
