A golden day in late fall
Summer is over, the days are slowly but surely getting shorter. Right now I'm sitting here on a day like this in the fall with 24 degrees in the sun, which I don't really need right now, but let's not talk about my sensitivities right now.
Let's just draw an "ideal picture" for this review. Autumn is here, the harvest is being brought in. The hay for the animals is ready in the barn. Beautiful, fresh, steaming hay, the air impregnated with grassy-sweet notes, tart, dripping with spicy coumarin, you could almost cut it.
I have to interject a little comment "off the record" here: the bergamot that is specified is also noticeable at the beginning. I noticed that the whole combination reminds me a little of gherkins at the beginning, at least for me it has something slightly "gherkin-like" about it, but maybe that's just the first 20-30 seconds, then it levels out again and this note disappears completely. So don't worry, everyone can sit still, nobody has to jump up in panic! I just wanted to mention it because I've never had this scent impression before
Ok, back to business....
...Hazelnuts roasting in the oven. Crunchy, authentic, full-bodied. In combination with the oat flakes, it almost reminds me of a nice Bircher muesli. It definitely has something crunchy, cereal-like, somehow original. In the background, lavender is hanging from the barn ceiling to dry. In my opinion, it is really beautifully incorporated into the fragrance and brings something sublime and also a certain balance to the overall scent, grounding it.
Jasmine and iris dance one last time in the balmy autumn wind before they soon fade away and bow their heads in farewell until they come back to life next year. Dying is also part of autumn.
So now everything is done. The farmer casts an appraising glance into his barn and looks at the many fruits of this year's labor. It is now time to sit down and relax. So he sits down comfortably in his favorite chair in the house. His wife hands him a freshly brewed cup of tea made from herbs fresh from the field. A cloud of green notes fills the whole house. Sometimes tart, sometimes earthy, sometimes herbaceous-green, wonderful. Relaxation program.
To celebrate the day, the farmer takes out his special honey tobacco, lights it, and the cloud of herbs is joined by a cloud of fine woody and dry notes, lined with honey and a light, tart sweetness. There is also a lot of honey on the sponge cake, which he now indulges in with relish and full of frugality and gratitude.
Cheers to the fall! Cheers to Shire from Pineward. Thank you for capturing fall perfectly for me! A truly beautiful piece of craftsmanship!
The forehand closes. Fine (end)

In conclusion, I don't really have much more to say. I think the fragrance is really, really good. Only the durability and sillage are a little behind at first glance, but anyone who has studied the fragrance knows that it is deliberately designed for EDT concentration. So on the whole, despite the rating, it's okay. In the end, it's also good that it performs the way it does. For me, it reflects the transience of autumn on the one hand, and on the other, it's good to strike a softer note. The fragrance has a certain coziness that doesn't need anything loud.
