80s Queen
Before I started writing this review, I did a bit of digging. I wanted to find out when this fragrance was released. Unfortunately, I couldn’t track down an exact launch date. It’s been listed on Amazon since 2016, so I’m guessing it came out around then. But honestly, it doesn’t smell like 2016.

The reason I even bothered looking it up is because from the very first sniff, it felt like this scent had time-traveled from another era.
You’re greeted right away by hyacinth, not soft and delicate, but bold and in your face. Think 80s queen walking into the room, and everyone turns to look. That retro vibe gets a boost from the fact that hyacinth doesn’t show up alone. She’s wrapped in a green coat that’s rough around the edges, a bit scratchy and worn, but it suits her perfectly if that’s your thing. I’m pretty sure galbanum is responsible for this raw green vibe, even if it’s not officially listed.

At first, this green hyacinth queen keeps her distance, but as the scent develops, she starts to soften up. Still, that green and slightly bitter edge never fully disappears. It’s part of her, part of the whole fragrance, but a touch of honey comes in to smooth things out a little, and then jasmine adds a bit of sweetness. The result is a scent that shifts between green and raw on one side and sweet and soft on the other, and it fades out slowly in that same balance.

The Scent in the Flower Shop
A very similar title was already chosen by DonJuanDeCat for the hyacinth scent from Yardley... And indeed, the two perfumes are not so dissimilar. But let's start from the beginning...
This scent aura in a flower shop is probably familiar to almost everyone. It is a heavy, but not really sweet fragrance - thanks to the many cut green stems. I find this scent almost enchanting, but that is certainly a matter of taste.
Also, the hyacinth bulbs in pots that are now available again in stores, whose buds then bloom at home and release their intense fragrance, are surely known to most.

In perfumes (e.g. in “Margaretha Ley” or “Jacinthe et Rose”, somewhat milder in “Bas de Soie”), the hyacinth sometimes comes across as a bit “scratchy-stinging”, although I don't mean that as negatively as it sounds - I actually find this note quite charming. In other perfumes, it shows itself more from its “green” side, for example in the aforementioned hyacinth scent from Yardley or also in “Blue Hyacinth” by Malone, and especially, almost herbaceous in “Bluebell” by Penhaligon’s. The hyacinth from Sangado lies somewhere in between, a bit sweeter than “Bluebell”, heavier than the hyacinths from Yardley and Malone, and greener and more naturalistic than those from Escada, Coudray, and Lutens. Thus, the hyacinth from Sangado captures the scent aura in the flower shop, in my view, the best!

The longevity on fabric (where I initially tested it) is truly impressive! It also holds up quite well on my skin.

A few words about the brand Sangado: I stumbled upon it by chance while searching online for another hyacinth scent. Apparently, the company primarily produces dupes - as almost all of them are at least compared to a well-known branded perfume. However, with "Hyacinth," this is not the case - I wouldn't know which perfume it should resemble. There is certainly some similarity to the aforementioned perfumes, simply due to the strong hyacinth note, but it is really not a twin!

A wild romantic walk in a garden full of blooming hyacinths and other spring flowers. Green speckled with a hint of fruity ..

Bittersweet symphony: Hyacinth taken to a bitter-serious peak. Flower stems, herb green and crisp-fresh. Just 1 drop of honey. Unique.

Short glue start, then incredibly authentic hyacinth! The dose is (over-)life-saving! 1 in the pot is nice, 3 are a near-death experience...

Hyacinth opens green, with a blue-blooded and crisp, radish-like note.
It's not 100% round for me and "falls apart" a bit.

Delft blue with an open stem, including not-so-fresh water in the vase. I like it.

Bitter-green, authentic hyacinth settles over time on a soft musk bed.
It's somehow devoid of fun.

The hyacinth is prominent from the start, but it has a strongly bitter-green quality. Something is off as it develops.
