Coniferous continental forest
Walk into a coniferous forest midsummer, in the mountain. Sit on a musky umid log, partly dried with the noon sun rays that timidly peek through the trees. Pick a pine branch, and pick its needles, bend them until its balsam cones out. Play with some fir sticks, draw into the earth happy animals figures.
Put your hands into the leather pouch to reach for a mint candy, discard it and put it into your mouth.
It's hot, so you brought some fresh drink with you, like aloe vera juice.
Some spills into your hands.
Now smell your hands.
Here you have this fragrance. Balms from the pine, firs, woody smells from the tree sticks, slightly earthy nuances from playing with the earth, soft musky wet wood from the log you were sitting. Leather comes from having your hands in your leather pouch and the sweetness from the candy earlier discarded.
A green leathery fragrance, not harsh or repellent, rather sweetened by the tonka beans.
Great for fall, winter and spring.

Creamy dreamy musk
Yes, I know leans more feminine, but has a man, this perfume fills me with confidence.
I suggest every man to try it at least once, you will not be disappointed.
Might be because every time I wear it I get tons of compliments and everyone around seems to enjoy the atmosphere this perfume creates.
Anyhow, the scent is sweet musk, but you can get other well blended notes, like the tart black currant and sandalwood.
The perfume evolves more complex after the first hour, where it smells more tarty citrusy musky.
The final dry down leave your skin smelling like the best musky soap ever.

Fresh - strong - synthetic
Be ware: this perfume smells better in the air than up close.
Not as soft and natural smelling as Silver Mountain Water.
The initial blast is so synthetic, smells of burnt plastic mixed with strong lemon cleaner citrus. My nose cannot take it.
After the first hour, the perfume evolves into a fresh floral scent until the final part of the dry down, which is totally musky.
The strong point of this scent is that last easily 8+ hrs and even 10 on clothes.
2 sprays for the office is ok.

Absynthe shot - on the rocks please!
This reminds me of the time I spent in Paris while studying literature. As a fan of Baudelaire, I used to go to a classy old bar of the belle epoque, ordering seldom an absinth shot on the rocks / without sugar. Inspiration for cursed poems followed through the harsh alcohol impact of the drink. Just like the opening of this perfume, absinth hits you in the face, but like a pleasant alcoholic slap.
The sweeteness comes through after the first 20 mins, star anise the most, like some popular candies in the 80s I chewed happily on my way to school.
In the dry down, a soft vetiver caresses you and lingers for about 3 - 4 hours.
On the final hour, a faint odor of soapiness mixed with remnants of woods.
Did not expect such experience, considering the price point.
Affordable, original, non-mainstream.
Originality 8.5 - Rare accord of absinth and cannabis
Quality 8 - The Absynth smells just like bar quality.
Longevity 7 - Solid 5 hrs with 1 hour good sillage. Spray on clothes for longer staying power.
