IHR* - would have suited her.
Even if both symbols intertwine,.... no, it is not unisex.

On the skin, it starts deeply floral. Like at the chopping table of a flower shop. Freshly cut flower stems green, resinous, bitter, slightly sour. And it feels dry. It has many tiny vibrating corners and edges. This initial canon lasts a long time. After a while, it becomes a bit silkier, almost powdery. Gradually, the scent profile begins to cloud over. It becomes a bit grayer and denser. And I would say it becomes dirtier, earthier. Described with human attributes, it takes on a slightly ordinary quality. It becomes somewhat condescending from within but also simultaneously demanding.
The scent remains in this state for quite a while. When it starts to fade, it becomes earthier again and (I can't think of a better description) has a slight hint of musty compost. And that smells good!
In the end, a note remains that I would compare to the smell of a pile of leaves raked together in a park meadow in the autumn morning mist. Sounds strange, but it smells grand.

Conclusion:
Very natural. Extremely high quality. But....... it is a sad scent. It has something melancholic, withdrawn about it. Although intensely tested, I would never wear it. It is a deeply feminine scent. I have thought long about who could wear it.
I believe SHE.... yes, IHR* would have suited her.

Bottle:
Simple but good. Feels quite heavy. However, it was flat-bellied and not cylindrical as shown above.

Longevity:
It easily lasts 8 - 10 hours.
* I mean Jean Seberg.

What a woman, what a scent.

A complete remake of all 80s scents in one bottle! Leather - wood - soap - spice - animalic - floral opulence - patch! Works well!

Here I recognize reminiscences of classic French perfumery. Floral-spicy, distinctly animalic, and leathery-woody in the dry down.

It's not just
animalistic, spicy, floral,
leathery, resinous, woody, earthy, sweet.
It touches my soul in
a positively sad way.

For me, a scent of deepest melancholy. Suffering, searching, silent. Floral-earthy, strange. Progression? Darkness, hope, light.

Language SHAPES character. This one falls somewhere between foul language and dirty talk. In the right company, it’s definitely hot.

Animalistic-spicy, floral sweetness. Some kind of special beast, attractive/repulsive at the same time. Not for the faint-hearted :D So definitely not for me. H+++S+

Fresh-synthetic with (unfortunately) a nearly natural, fecal note. For fans of Sécrétions Magnifiques etc., otherwise really terrible.

Strangely fresh, oily, and a bit sweaty, this odd creature lives in the water near the freshly paved road.
