Oldfashioned
With this fragrance "Pan Flute" from Wonderchest Perfumes, I couldn't really warm up to it as the only one.
Since the series is part of a project, I couldn't test it multiple times because the samples are meant to be shared among several participants.
It is supposed to be a masculine scent, as the perfumer herself states in the fragrance description. Unfortunately, I couldn't perceive it that way, even though the listed ingredients suggest it.
The natural fragrances from "Wonderchest Perfumes," NY, by perfumer Anna-Elvira Brodskaya are made from natural oils and essences. If alcohol is present in the fragrances, it is only distilled from grains. The perfumes have a traditional feel yet are pleasantly fresh, herbal, natural, and in my opinion still unique, sometimes particularly beautiful with interesting developments. Above all, they are very long-lasting for natural scents, lasting six to twelve hours on me. It is absolutely necessary to have patience and to wait for the development even with less differentiated fragrances.
For me, "Pan Flute" started woody with dominant cinnamon. In contrast to the other fragrances from Wonderchest that I have tested so far, I find this one relatively sweet right from the start.
Then I perceive a bright patchouli.
Very quickly, a warm and distinct oakmoss note developed. Together with the patchouli, the wood, and the very special variety of geranium, which is translated here as Balkan cranesbill, it quickly results in an almost old-fashioned perfume with a medium sillage. However, the sweetness then quickly disappeared, instead, I still smell cinnamon, now woody with mossy and also bitter notes.
Perhaps a blend of sage, nutmeg, ginger, and cedar, as well as rosewood, creates a note that I perceive as cinnamon. Because I cannot perceive the mentioned fragrance notes.
It could be that I am not used to recognizing this combination of real plants and their essences and oils, and/or I perceive them quite differently.
Above all, the fragrance materials labeled as natural do not seem to be perceived as quickly and clearly and especially uniformly standardized, as I suspect due to the partial discrepancy of the pyramid compared to my notes.
Perceived this way, "Pan Flute" could be classified as more masculine, but for me, it was a very feminine scent. I mean the scent itself here and less related to the intended wearers. I couldn't imagine "Pan Flute" on men.
However, I want to fairly admit that I have never liked this type of perfume as I perceive "Pan Flute." It seems to me that "Pan Flute" is somehow old-fashioned and, despite moderate sillage, overwhelming. The longevity of "Pan Flute" is, as expected, also very good.
I summarize it this way: Everything is remarkably well done with "Pan Flute," as I have acknowledged in all the fragrances from Wonderchest. Unfortunately, "Pan Flute" does not belong to the type of perfumes that I like.

A really nice cinnamon scent. Spicy and festive. Unfortunately, it caused an allergic reaction for me (red spot on my wrist).

Very soft, subtly powdery wood scent with a restrained cinnamon note and a hint of patchouli.

Patchouli wood scent with warm spice, especially cinnamon cassia in the base. Very traditional flute notes and not very appealing to me.

Spice mix smells cinnamon-y + bright patchouli, slightly floral + fougère becomes punchy-old-fashioned chypre-like: base bitter + woody + moss, does cinnamon stay?
