Mountain tea memory unblocked

Have you ever tried tea made from Sagan-dalya? I have, and I can confirm that this fragrance is almost a photographic reflection of the taste and aroma of that herb. Once, I drank too much sagan-dalya infusion and had a terrible stomachache. When I sprayed this fragrance on a blotter and took the first breath, my stomach twisted in the same way—the hit to my body memory was that precise. For all lovers of piercing wild herbs or those nostalgic for the mountains of Altai and Transbaikalia, I highly recommened the perfume

Uncommon and beautifully complex

Sagan Dalya opns dense, bold and earthy on me. A faint sweetness from immortelle and honey lingers in the background thought the development arc. As it dries down, warm tobacco and balsamic labdanum create an impression of creamy vanilla, giving the fragrance a cozy, comforting aura. Up close it remains earthy and dense - almost compost-like, but the sillage blooms beautifully to project a golden, vanillic warmth for hours. Sagan Dalya is an intriguing fragrance that benefits from a little space to reveal its full complexity and beauty.

Maher / Sagan Dalya

A great and powerful Mahera extract. Strong, essential and full-bodied. The name refers to a strong, healing and stimulating (including hallucinogenic) tea in the Far East. The smell of the extract is really specific, unique, strong and exceptional. As a fan of most of Beaufort's compositions - I personally think he could be another release of his. Somewhere out there, Vi et Armis delights me a bit, somewhere one of the Pinewards, and somewhere the mystery of Slumberhouse (Jeke). In the scent itself, I can sense notes of tobacco, various herbs (including immortell), light leathery and sweet incense (labdanum / honey). Apart from that, a lot of notes that were not identified by my nose / brain. After reading the description on Maher's page - he also used Siberian rhodondendron (which as I read he was very fascinated). And in my opinion, VERY GOOD created work that is strong and very durable in the form of an extract. I highly recommend this player.

Best tobacco scented fragrance?

Sagan Dalya (meaning "White Wing") is a famous Siberian perennial medicinal plant of the Ericaceae family that was used in medicines and in tea by the Mongols as a stimulant drug - believed to prolong life. The characteristics of Sagan Dalya tea are known and used by herbalists. However, its most famous property is its immediate tonic effect, similar to that of caffeine. Sagan Dalya is therefore a natural stimulant (without caffeine) significantly superior to coffee and ginseng. An overdose can lead to hallucinations (probably one of the reasons shamans prized it so much).
In this fragrance it manifests itself with a quality that is first fresh and then warm, mystical, earthy and resinous.

It opens in an “explosive” mode with a leafy green rhododendron, with pine tones and slightly “boozy”, which complements the herb/green apple aroma of the spicy marigolds (calendula) with a hint of camphor.

The inclusion of immortelle softened with honey/beeswax and combined with a woodsy tobacco is genius. A resinous, warm and sweet/ambery labdanum envelops the blend spiced with a slightly floral musk.

As it transforms into a scent skin, the immortelles and tobacco gain prominence, benefiting from the texture that the overall composition provides.
On the skin it smells totally different from paper, it has a longevity of 24 hours (the next day I still have immortelles and tobacco accord stuck to the skin) and a medium sillage.
