Romantic play with light and dark, heaven and earth, iris and chocolate -- glue and old biscuits?
AugustA tries a drop. And with the prelude, I say three times in a row with pleasure: "Hmmm!" Interesting what you get to smell, not only fresh or something, no hesperides, no citrus, no pharmacy, but right in the middle of the fragrance: Iris with chocolate patch and ambrette. I can't wait for the top note. And that without becoming too heavy or oriental. As if the base had swung into my head with a swing, and only now has to fall back again to make room for others. A memory of those old glue bottles with the rubber part for application also floats by. I used to love to smell this stuff, that was many years ago. Now let every caution go and add some more - this will certainly not be a headache smell. You have to try it in full size and shape.
Now, more body: I smell milky sandalwood and yeast. And the dry iris root unfolds, penetrates further and further. I always find iris together with wood particularly beautiful. Now: the violet. About minimal biscuit sweetness, no Gormandtouch, starch, biscuits that have been lying around a bit too long. Slightly rancid. Perhaps a big date with her own tart, malty, sugary smell. And all that in the first 10 minutes.
Wow.
Not a fragrance you apply and then forget.
What does Equistrius still mean?
Ah, a beloved show horse Shiny warm fur to paint over, that's what I like about this fragrance. Freshly groomed, velvety soft. But rather not: Running, horse-riding or similar hoof-stomping. Or yet, in the distance?
Iris, the messenger of the gods - a rainbow - more like it.
Because the fragrance spans from the flowery side with the iris in the centre, in an arc of earthiness and sky transparency, the violet brings a light evening violet in the sky, which only carries a few veil clouds.
And yet they cast shadows too. A romantic play with light and dark
Buttery, earthy iris root and dry powdery texture mixes with the steam of rice. Next to it is a piece of dark chocolate, the date already mentioned, the old biscuit.
A drop of rosé in a glass. Fits the slightly fermented note that I now encounter when I come closer.
Equistrius is not heavy, it soon melts completely with my skin, which smells and feels slightly spicy. The fragrance manages to create a special material that you feel as much as you smell it.
A cloud of iris and rice powder floating over the skin, enveloping it like a warm glow.
There is also a leather aspect, maybe from the horse? Violet and iris leather, gloves, bridle or something; even cocoa sometimes has a bitter-tangy note. Very dry. On the skin, the leather radiates warm and fragrant, just like this scent. That's it. Not much of it at all.
In the base, after 3-4 hours still the iris powder, but much more woody, a rest of dark chocolate, ambrette and: Vetiver. Because of its companions the vetiver here is sweetish, nutty, green-powdery. A fresh touch of grass and air is also there.
Once again the fragrance takes the olfactory arc from the root to the blue sky. That's how I like vetiver.
A comprehensive fragrance experience.
I didn't know which sample I wanted to test today. So I just picked it up. Et voilá! This is really an all-round successful, unusual scent! Definitely unisex, because here male and female components and codes support each other wonderfully and I'm sure it unfolds in different accents on every woman's and man's skin, and whoever has already completely gotten rid of these attributions. That will certainly remain exciting, we won't let it go.
