muffled powder

Definitely get the powder, the perfume is kind of weird, it’s intimate, clean, not very astonishing I kind of get a muffled feeling from this one, like the creator tried to tone down the blend, resulting for me in being actually quite boring.
I like powdery blend from time to time but they need have some kind of kick to make them bottle worthy
I find this whole pentalogies collection really really challenging ...

A Day at the Beach

We are lying on the beach, somewhere at the edge of the dune, where the first bush-sized shrubs begin. They are thorny like roses, but have only small flowers. The scent of sunscreen without SPF mixes in, clearly coconut-based, and it becomes increasingly evident that there are many different types of wood around us, most of which must have been washed ashore. A day at the beach makes you hungry, but luckily we have some fruits and a dessert with us. It seems like it’s going to be quite a good day.

I like it when fragrances tell a clear story, and the Etude does that. Unfortunately, there are a bit too many adjectives and subordinate clauses in the narrative form, which causes everything to blend together more than it should. In version 1.3, it could definitely be trimmed a bit.

As a pronounced sea salt scent, I prefer the minimalist "Nothing but Sea and Sky" just a tad more, even though the two have an undeniable similarity. But with the Etude, I’m never quite sure if, in its high complexity, one or two car tires have been secretly disposed of in the dune from which I’m currently looking out at the sea.

For that, you get a lot of fragrance for your money: Even a whole beach day later, we are still sitting on one of the tires by the sea, nibbling on the last melon as a farewell.

Creamy Aquate.
Wood is okay, coconut not.
If sound played a role here, it would probably be the sound of the waves.
Muff by the sea.

Can you hear it? The waves, Amyris whispers softly, longing makes sounds, milky-sweet, spicy whispers. When silence has something to say…!

Who put the rose in the raspberry candy?
Whatever, I'm at the beach.
The wind blows coconut flakes
through sandalwood and myrrh milk.

If they had left out the aquatic notes... But let's leave that aside. Creamy sandalwood scent with a coconut vibe and the mentioned aquatic notes. It doesn't resonate with me.

Wonderful wood-aquatic
Without coming off as synthetic or fishy
Coconut adds some creaminess to the sandalwood
But everything is very balanced
Fresh breeze*
