In the Rapture of the Street
I must have somehow gotten under this tar machine. The black mass flows heavily, enveloping me, rough and heavy, the tar sweats plumes of gray warm smoke, just a moment ago I was lying here in a clearing in the woods. Now everything is asphalt and ash, in the rapture of the street I drift in the tar, sluggishly sinking deeper, until I think I notice a clove that still defies the smoldering muck and occasionally a few notes of leather as my jacket disintegrates.
Then I believe my head is beneath the asphalt, as the smoldering seems to let nature, the flowers, trees, and grasses shine fruitily bright in the tar, as if the concrete brings them forth, tuberose, cedar, and vetiver. With my arms laid against my body, the asphalt slowly pushes me forward, hour by hour merging a few centimeters with remnants of the forest. After a while, there is guaiac wood, the skull splits the trunk into splinters, charred milk swims in the blaze of the concrete, red glowing poor smoking knights.
Hours later, the hub seems reached, grasses sharpen the smoke glowing green, before the undertone becomes warmer and softer, as mosses burn to a crisp. Now I dream of tuberoses emerging from ash and amber woods, enchanting flowers with sweet vanilla wood cream like incense sticks, blending with patchouli, blurring the rapture of the street into memory.

Black Tar is a smoker with an unusual development. What Frau Holle has already hinted at in her comment, namely that all these natural scents resonate in this initial wall of tar, is a varied shifting from spicy-leathery to resinous-fruity, burnt milk, green-mossy, and finally floral-woody upon closer sniffing. All of this is refracted through the lens of the smoky tar, creating the scent impressions described above in the text. By the way, smoked ham is never a fitting association for me. Black Tar lasts about six to eight hours, projects moderately to skin close, and is never intrusive even at warmer temperatures, rather refreshingly grainy than tar-like and gluing. It is definitely special among smoky fragrances.

Once again, an extremely exciting comment that, of course, raises the expectations for this fragrance to an unreachable level.
I’m curious, I’ll give it a try...

Every word you said perfectly captures the scent.
It really is a special smoky fragrance!
