Orange-Blossom Ostinato
Narkissos is an enormous white floral: I mostly get a huge, fruity orange blossom, some tuberose, a salty musk, with a big, fruity grape note. As it dries down, leather, a metallic honey and a pinch of tobacco morph it in an oddly sweet-savory direction, while remaining quite syrupy and almost bubblegum-y in places.
An immensely powerful fragrance, it's the drydown where it starts to lose me. The fruity orange blossom and metallic honey feel like a throbbing drumbeat on my nose, and I find myself tiring of it rapidly.
I am sure narcissus is in here, but this just doesn’t smell like any narcissus I know. The Herculean orange blossom, however, reminds me a lot of Fils de Joie, another big white floral I had similar issues with.
As a big fan of both Angelos’ work and narcissus blossoms, I wanted to love this, but alas, it is not for me.
