What Some People Lack...
Self-confidence is gained by doing exactly what you fear and thereby accumulating a series of successful experiences.
(Dale Carnegie)
.
It's always nice to see such quotes! Cards and posters are hanging everywhere, and you smile when you read and see them. You even nod and think to yourself: "Oh yes, how true." But doing...? That’s where it gets a bit more difficult.
.
I am lucky to be able to test all the fragrances from the S_A_C_K_Y line, and I want to thank B. once again from the bottom of my heart for that.
The fragrances from S_A_C_K_Y are extraordinary and special! Each individual scent in this line presents something very personal, something rebellious and unique. At first, I laughed at the name; it sounded really funny to me. Now...., as I test, I connect the name with the fragrances and no longer laugh. On the contrary, my eyes sparkle and I am happy!
.
I want to describe KISHWAR because it is a scent from this line that I like, but for which I need a bit more self-confidence. KISHWAR - I couldn't find a meaning for the name, except that it is a first name. It reads as elevated, somewhat cool and oriental.
.
KISHWAR is bursting with a clear, tart, and dark red rose scent. A half-open rosebud stretching towards the rising sun in the morning to unfold. A strong rose scent unfolds. Nothing artificially created, but like a real rose. Minimally sweet, which is overshadowed by the rose geranium with its green-tart scent. "You stay down my love, do you hear! Do not exude anything sweet, but remain cool and rosy!"
Oud in a form that is not so pleasant for me, because it is rough and almost biting. Virginia cedar, a type of juniper, has something ethereal, with all parts being toxic. It is clear like water and almost a little balsamic. The essential oil of Virginia cedar is said to have an emotionally balancing, stabilizing effect during deep emotional phases, to instill trust, alleviate fears, and be calming for nervous disturbances and stress (excerpt from Uncle Internet). In KISHWAR, it does exactly that!
Saffron and amber in the fragrance notes? Hmm, yes, that's true! But only at the end of the day when the rose has grown tired. Saffron smells slightly like forest honey, not quite as sweet or sticky, but very gentle, and amber radiates dry, woody, amber-colored warmth. Finally, this gives the scent something soft and dry-powdery.
I like KISHWAR, even though it is a "bulky," quirky scent for me. But it belongs to S_A_C_K_Y and is therefore something special! A rose scent with elegance, coolness, a bit of eccentricity, and self-confidence!
Thank you, B.

Oh, one more thing! Regarding the quote...
I wore KISHWAR and gathered my experience. It is clearly perceived as a "masculine" scent. However, it came across to two dear people as extremely pleasant on me! I would smell clean and woody.

An aura of powder and green-woody severity (strong geranium) surrounds this rose, which struggles to lift its head to the light.

I thought the rose-oud combination was old news for me. But I hadn't met Kishwar yet.

Nothing really new under the sun, but done really well: spices, oud, flowers, woods, and amber - this one is truly high-quality and delicious!!

An unconventional, elegant rose balm. Polished, noticeable, herbaceous, and cool. Roses in almost their purest form with a vintage amber touch.

Yellow rose in bitter green fresh tones, unsweetened and invigorating. A bit scratchy chypre. A subtler, easily wearable "Rose de Taif."

A bright, slightly fruity fresh rose with a hint of saffron and a touch of oud. Smells good, but it's not really new.
