White Collection - Eau Dadà Santi Burgas 2016

The fragrance begins warm, slightly floral, earthy and powdery. Those who concentrate may recognize the iris root in the beginning. Soon a severe note appears like ink or how very artificial cedar, but quickly merges with the background to a sticking plaster chord, fortunately only so weak that it does not become unpleasant. Next, you get the impression that a cigar box has been opened some distance away. Finally, Eau Dadà finds his way to a subtle earthy-woody mood with a powdery undertone, probably Labdanum with a tame oud. This way, the fragrance is released after only four to five hours.

A look at the list of ingredients shows the typical ingredients of a heavy Oriental with clearly distinguishable scents, but in my case only those aspects appear which are similar: I cannot really identify anything. Does that even have to be? No, it doesn't make the scent any worse - it's just unexpected, especially by the name.

Eau Dadà doesn't look like a perfume to me, it has a more subliminal effect. As if it only wanted to create a pleasant frame, but not in the sense of fragrance lamp wellness or a beautiful living ambience, rather a mood inside, a feeling like in an old wood-panelled library with soft light. Rustle of paper, gentle movements, calm breath, silence. A retreat.

I already like the scent, but it doesn't suit my nature. I prefer perfumes that attract more attention, that create an exciting narrative and that connect with me rather than just being there.
