Fitzwilliam Rolls in the Forest
Freed from all pride and false prejudices, Fitzwilliam tumbled grinning onto a completely needled forest floor outside London. The abundant rain of the Regency had turned the resinous needles of the pines and cedars into the mushy ground, and mushrooms were almost popping up from the split, moldy tips. However, the weather, just like Fitzwilliam, had naturally evolved, and now the sun shone on the mud, making it smell romantically smoky, spicy, woody, brittle, and earthy. Chuckling, Fitzwilliam rolled between the conifers. Oh, why should I smell like all the highborn, when this is the true nature!
In the exuberance of this epiphanic realization, bergamot began to flutter its wings among all the smoky, earthy needles and muddy shavings, dancing with the ethereal breath of Australian tea trees, attempting to heal all the English afflictions of the early nineteenth century-arrogance and disdain, envy and jealousy-that still smoked and rotted in the earthy mire beneath the resinous needles of the conifers, dried under the brown bark, where freshness also sank back in.

"Mr. Darcy" is a perfume oil from Tanya Kuznetsova's Ravenscourt Apothecary, which she has been operating in London since 2013. In addition to the natural perfume oils, which are naturally limited in longevity (about three to five hours) and sillage (rather arm's length to skin close), she also produces other products such as natural soaps.
"Mr. Darcy," named after one of the protagonists from Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," who embodies the epitome of the distant romantic hero, thrives on the tension between the prominent smoky-spicy and earthy myrrh, a rather brittle, pencil-like cedar, resinous pine needles, and the ethereal, bitter freshness of bergamot and tea tree oil, which only appears in the heart note and retreats behind the other notes in the base. Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy rolled on my arm for only about three to four hours.
