Review 4 Trophies
Valentine's Day 2024 at the home of a perfume enthusiast requesting anonymity:
“Schahaatz,” piped Eggo36. “Happy Valentine’s Day! Unwrap the gift!”
“Is it Mon Cheri? But please don’t tell me it’s already been bitten?”
“Much better. I’ve already eaten the chocolate ones.”
*Unwrap*
“Oh…a…perfume…wow…great…Labdanum 4 Love. Sigh.”
“Yeah, amazing, right? Labdanum because you smell like honey and resin, like Winnie the Pooh to me! Just in a feminine way, with a different figure, pants, and not the one from Blood & Honey! Why are you so quiet? So deeply in ecstasy? Let me be your little piggy, that’s enough for me as thanks!”
“…”

Indeed, Labdanum 4 Love has a very intensely sweet, resinous opening; it immediately smells strongly woody, yet also of bitter honey. The woody notes feel very fresh, as if resin is oozing from a freshly cut wound or marrying with it.
Enter cocoa: soft powder dusts the scene like a tribute to a white winter Christmas. The cocoa is slightly oily and leans towards earthy notes. Patchouli not only tangles but penetrates the core of the perfume like a fabulously thrust spear.

No question, Siam benzoin, often characterized by its chocolaty aroma and balsamic nuances, contributes to the effect of Labdanum 4 Love. What is also noticeable, though only after a while, is the sandalwood. We all know the distinctive and penetrating smell of cheap sandalwood. Here, we are offered the high-quality version; pleasant, complementing the remaining olfactory facets. Noble, velvety-warm, soft-woody; the patrician among woods.

Only for the oud must milk cartons be printed. Indian oud, so strong, aromatic, expressionistic Indonesian oud, or leathery Thai oud - none of these were seen. It may be that the relatively quickly emerging base consists of this. However, this would sadly only resemble caricatures of these ouds, like part six of a film series.

The scent buddies are not a jovial group of good friends; they aren’t even a group because, in fact, there is a single man behind it all. The products are usually distributed via eBay, with more and more fragrances appearing gradually. Some, like here, are very limited. The most well-known works were created together with Hans Georg Staudt, while the quantitatively limited works seem to be done independently.
Labdanum 4 Love is successful, but it flattens out towards the base increasingly quickly. All the ingredients surrounding the balsamic, chocolaty part are strong. The transformation into a robust and oud-heavy core, however, only succeeds to a limited extent. Surely, it’s not due to the raw materials themselves; they feel valuable. The transition itself resembles a needle’s eye. The camel gets through, but the ouds do so only with great difficulty.

A resinous-warm scent, somewhat sweet at times, reminiscent of yellow pines, beautifully featuring sandalwood. No ouds.

Labdanum 4 for everyone - even for me!
Balsamic resins of many kinds harmoniously blended. Creamy-sweet Mysore on top - it fits.
