How does the base lean @CivetOnly - is it as comforting as the rest of the composition sounds?

@CivetOnly I'm probably not patient enough to snipe a sample set from a newsletter 😂 I'll just have to live vicariously through your nose!
That was a super detailed and helpful description, felt like I was experiencing each part. Thanks for sharing, it does seem quite lovely!

@Gourmandgrl yeah, sampling Angelos is difficult (you have to subscribe to his newsletter and snipe a sample set) but compositions like this make it worth your while!
Think of a grandma chypre without the "stinky" parts (aldehydes, civet, oakmoss) with soapy florals and a permeating orangey, honeyed note.
That carries into the drydown, where it connects with some resinous, slightly balsamic depth. It never goes fully syrupy, but at times "threatens" with heading in such a direction, which is arguably kinda enticing!
