strong ambivalence
My first impression in the CN of this experimental fragrance evoked in me the daring association of vomit. This may have to do with the very strong presence of mushroom notes right at the beginning. From my active mushroom-picking days, I still have the smell of drying forest mushrooms in my nose. There is no denying the impression of overcooked meat, where decomposition processes have already begun. Like meat, mushrooms consist of proteins, and these are broken down by enzymes and bacteria into lactic acid. And here we have, roughly speaking, the link to the olfactory impression of the decomposed.
In combination with tea, which on its own and without taste or smell tuning comes across as alkaline and tired, the smell of decomposed food is quite challenging to my nose. The olfactory harbingers of seaweed briefly reinforce this olfactory character and then turn it towards brackishness.
Thankfully, the citrusy notes soon come into play, giving the brackish-basic mixture a fresh kick and putting an end to the seasickness scenario that has arisen.
We are now at a turning point. In the HN, the fragrance picks up fresh momentum in the citrusy light, which increasingly gains presence and brings the emerging seaweed to life, setting it in motion. And as a damp woody note is added to the salty northern seawater note, the olfactory image of seaweed on driftwood landed on the shore of a natural beach comes to mind.
It's all somehow cozy and familiar - maybe it's because I was born on the coast.
So now land is in sight. The ethereal and resinous aromas of green-green cypress in the BN take over, and the mushroom notes smoothly subordinate themselves to them. This tart, erotic country fragrance is both beguiling and fresh, with depth and breadth. In its expansive breadth, it meets ultra-sensual ambergris, and in its depth, these two components marry to form an extremely attractive pairing, with porcini mushroom as the best man. This melange is an extraordinary, aphrodisiac triad that I can hardly let go of.
And it lingers for many hours, and after...
A wide arc of suspense has opened up here, from the initial olfactory 'seasickness' to an attractant with a unique selling point. Well worth a test for noses that love to explore.
