Adventure Cinnamon
Cinnamon.
I smell like cinnamon.
Even "Strictly Cinnamon," if I am to believe my husband.
Well. Cinnamon has a habit of dominating a fragrance blend if you let it. That's usually the case from about the time it's no longer allowed to intervene in the perfume action only in homeopathic doses. There are other spices perceptible, yes. But these are for me on the edge of perception and seem to be there solely for the cinnamon
"to carry the train", or to make it look particularly good.
After all, this cinnamon is now thereby but also a fine, high-quality, nose-pleasing. Spice lovers who are now already happily wallowing in Christmas fragrance phatasies I must disappoint but. Because in this perfume plays ,from the beginning almost equally, a herbaceous-green, dark-earthy patchouli note with, flanked perhaps by a tick lemongrass.
Images of fleshy, green jungle plants,of the cool darkness of an alien jungle ,I associate directly with it.
So on the one hand we have spices that are well known to us, but on the other hand they are placed in a context of the strange, the unknown, the dark and possibly dangerous.
Because Batavia is an adventure scent. A seafaring scent. Not sweet. Not pleasing. But yet attractive and latently exciting.
A fragrance that tells of people who long ago still had to take great dangers and hardships on themselves to get across the sea into foreign lands, full of curiosity, in the hope of luck and good money. (Let's now assume merchants, not pirates...)
And there they stand, for example in Batavia, which is nowadays called Jakarta, these adventurers and are intoxicated by the exotic scent of these strange, precious spices, which are held under their noses by the locals and which smell so wonderful and stimulating.
Intoxicated by the dark scents of the nearby jungle, the heat, the joy of having made it this far.
And now the scent is finally ( after hours! ) but slowly also sweeter and warmer, the big
" Z" says goodbye incredibly slowly piece by piece, leaves the stage to the patch. This melts more and more with vanilla and sandal. Towards the end, this yet somewhat strict fragrance actually gets almost cuddly character. That's nice, a bit of warmth makes it more pleasant for me.
Gaaanz at the end remains once again such a strange sugar-amber impression on the arm back. Is apparently not without.
I have me this perfume blind ersoukt and find it great ! (Ausgesucht I would have me's warscheinlich not, there would be from Teone Reinthal which fit better to me ;-))
Cinnamon as a main component I also feel as something exhausting and stirring.
If I wear it myself, I have to expect to stand out and, if necessary, to clash.
At a music festival or outdoor concert, however, I can well imagine wearing it.
Batavia would please me personally, well-dosed, also, or especially ,on a man very well.
