A leathery creamy main accord which at my nose appears pleasing and comforting ( not smoky or birchy at all )made by the combo of leather ambrette and sandalwood, musk, pear ( rawness and gentleness perfectly counterbalanced)+ with citrusy spicy touches. I'm generally in love with leather +ambrette seeds and I'm impressed by how its usual dense and slightly animalic facets have been turned into something completely different but yet interesting. A very classy leather fragrance.

Opens up with a prominent saffron leatherish note ( as mentioned before saffron here loses its oriental connotation becoming somehow dark) and some cinnamon .Leather evolves into a more powdery and smoky heart. Oud marks then transition to an animalic ( and gently balanced castoreum)and powdery base.
On the overall performance and sillage are noticeably good .Composition is quiet pleasing but lacks originality .
Despite a very sparkling opening it settles into something very solid and unfortunately less complex than the amount of notes declared.(Matter of skin PH??? ......)

dynamic, articulated , slow evolution .
three very different sections well blended and matched.
it opens very fruity ( lots of sweet citrusy and some raspberry + little pine in the background )
heart is very flowery ( lily of the valley , jasmine ) cedar wood leads to a woody , incense base .
on my skin fits beautifully.

I agree with whom has previously reviewed. It's definitely something unusual ,like walking onto a different path to a new direction: a flowery lawn.
its a blast of chamomile, geranium( a bit too much), lavender ,carnation in the opening , then warm tobacco , a little hay and hearty patchouly as base notes .We can still tell its Pinewood by a pine-ish balsamic background very very tamed and very well rounded up.
Not one of my favorite but very pleasing in the overall.

A very interesting self revealing composition.
Once sprayed very tamed , it settles down into something very intimate yet articulated and rich.
I sense berries and pine in the opening turning into a smoky , incense .
Floral notes appear as base notes ( at least to my nose ) with a beautiful gardenia lily of the valley mix .Very sexy in the overall!!!
