Chypre with Tropical Feeling
The scent starts off green and fresh with the lime note, also has a slightly herbal quality, probably from the basil. Over time, some white flowers emerge, although the floral aspect is rather subdued; I can distinctly smell the ylang-ylang, while the jasmine is less noticeable. However, it remains relatively unsweet and not very heavy, fortunately, as I don't handle big white florals very well.
The dry-green base note of oakwood is slightly softened by a bit of sandalwood and benzoin, but the scent never becomes sweet. It reminds me just a tiny bit of Private Collection, of which I have a vintage mini, but with a Thai twist and more floral than green.
Rogue Perfumery states on its website that the proportions of oakmoss are not IFRA-compliant and are used in significantly higher concentrations. So, if someone is looking for something like that, they can find it here.
For me, a very successful blind purchase.

Ich trage den Duft gerade zum zweiten Mal und finde, dass Du ihn mit Deiner Beschreibung gut getroffen hast. Insbesondere nach Profumos Kommentar hatte ich aber tatsächlich mehr Eichenmoos erwartet. Für mich überwiegen die grünen, zitrischen und kräuteriger Aspekte, die ich nach einem Blick in die Pyramide der Kaffernlimette und dem Basilikum zuordne. Moos empfinde ich als eher zurückhaltend.

Die Erwähnung von Chypre und Eichenmoos lockt mich immer
