Bumpy start, good end

A really peculiar fragrance, I have to say. Was shown to me by a friend in Sephora because of a possible slight similarity to Blessed Baraka. Had a voucher, ordered it and tested it in everyday life.

The first 2 sprays, the first 5 minutes...BAH! PFUI! And money thrown out of the window again. That was the thought. Somehow fermented, it smelled like half-moldy berries...at the same time pungent, I can hardly describe it. I just wanted to wash the scent off.
But I'm glad I gave it a chance (or was too lazy to wash it off...)! Because after 5-10 minutes it slowly evolves - the fermented berries disappear, the scent becomes lighter, more floral, sandalwood comes through. Soft and dark.

H/S is absolutely fine, especially in the hair the fragrance is still perceptible for 1-2 days.

Patience is a virtue here, if you hold out for the first few minutes, you will be rewarded with a mystical, dark, soft fragrance!
