Mood Enhancer

A beautiful and uplifting perfume from Providence Perfume Co. Moss Gown, as the name suggests, is loaded with moss, yet I wouldn't classify it as a chypre. It doesn't use labdanum or bergamot. Nor does it feel like a chypre. It feels like a scent from one of Hayao Miyazaki's movies. Full of color and joyful, with much personality and charisma. A magical world surrounds me whenever I spray this perfume. Moss is the star here, but it doesn't feel bitter, abrasive, or overly inky, as this material can come across oftentimes when used in high amounts. It's velvety, like a blanket wrapping you in its comforting embrace. There are some soft spices in the opening and a yellow, sweet mimosa flower in the heart. Chamomile is present, instilling a sense of tranquility. Soft cedarwood appears in the base, but more apparent is the sandalwood that lends its creamy and buttery quality to the dry-down, making the experience that much more comforting. Besides feeling like part of a fairy tale, it is also quite debonair being appropriate for dressed-up situations. It won't come across as intrusive to the wearer or the surroundings but wraps tightly around you like a scarf, delighting the senses and lifting your mood. It certainly lifts my mood.

I think I'm in the forest!

"Moss Gown" is for me a truly beautiful moss scent. The opening is sweetly mossy with balsamic resins. The moss remains present throughout the entire long duration, although it does soften.
The sillage in the first hour is quite impressive. It really smells like being in a light mixed forest with old oaks draped in moss lichens, and it is summer. The heather is already blooming and has a lovely scent when the wind brushes over it.
Then comes the heart phase in which I think "Moss Gown" transforms into a more herbaceous-bitter scent, leaning more towards terpenes, or wood oils. "Moss Gown" also becomes a bit more bitter and earthy, but remains interesting and pleasant, always flanked by the moss scent.
However, gradually a sweet floral blend appears, sweet, slightly fresh, with a hint of aromatic-fruity notes.
When I look up the pyramid after testing, a lot becomes clear to me. Although the order does not play out the same way for me in the scent progression. I can't identify individual flowers. However, I do smell something like blooming heather.
In essence, that is not really important, because:
"Moss Gown" is a breathtakingly beautiful landscape scent, as mentioned above: A blooming heathland in summer with oaks and moss and a few cherry trees at the forest edges.
I would now use the moss gown as a scent blanket for sleeping. But I still need to leave it in the tester for the test successor.
The longevity is very good for a natural scent, although the sillage becomes almost skin-close after three hours.

Walking through Japanese temple grounds that are covered in moss. It reminds me of the famous moss garden of Saihō-ji, in Kyoto, Japan.

Warm woods, floral wreaths, herbal juices. Brew simmers in the cauldron. Forest and rain. Shadows whisper. Earth dreams beneath mossy down.

Natural and unusual. Chamomile is prominent at the start. Creamy green, slightly hay-like, creamy floral, and a lot of moss in the dry down. Very refined.
