A Yummy but Surprising Treat
Born From Fire was one of my two pickups from The Scent Room in Dallas that Fran picked out when I told her Iove gourmands. Out of all the vanillas I sniffed that day this was truly something unique. The first thing I realized is that the notes and the way it smells on skin are completely different. With the black pepper and oud I was expecting something spicy and a little anamalic but instead I get something....burnt. Yes, burnt. On first spray this smells like a batch of sugar cookies in the oven that's done cooking but JUST the bottom has been burnt so there's that slight charred layer. Not enough charr to spoil the taste of the cookie and make it a wasted batch, but rather it enhances the flavor.
About an hour in we start to yet this interesting almost breakfast cereal in milk dynamic. Don't misunderstand though, it doesn't smell LIKE milk but rather like cereal once it's hit the milk. Not anything fruity,just something sweet and simple like frosted flakes. By the five hour mark it settles into this beautiful musky vanilla that carries you for the next four to six hours. To say this scent takes you on an adventure would be an understatement! One thing is certain though and that is tha I love where it leads me. It's got a very solid 8 hours of wear time and gets me compliments all day long.
