Boy if this is good. Now you need to really like the scent of a piece of spruce wood. It starts with a very high dose of Iso E super or something similar on a bed of javenol, its not so creamy but almost spicy (i guess thats the coriander but isoesuper is also quite peppery lets face it) With this I am not saying it smells synthetic but it reminds me of those molecules. I absolutely love it! It smells of a wooden chalet, the inside of a steaming hot sauna, woodchippings. Drydown is the best because i finally get the lime which adds this quirkiness, the olfactive accident I guess. Vanilla is there to reinforce sandalwood and add some depth. I am not sure what amberwood smells like but anytime i see it listed theres some sharpness and incredible longevity added to the fragrance ( I am thinking to L'homme a la rose MFK). Going to comparisons there was a moment (having tam dao in one hand and gypsy water in the other) in the beginning of the drydown which they almost smelled identical but opening and drydown are in completely opposite directions. Tam Dao is a fulfilling 360 degrees woody experience (actual dry bark guys) whereas gypsy water goes citrusy and and somehow sweet. If you are searching for something like Gypsy water
i suggest Tulsivivah! from Miller et Berteaux which is a super happy and comforting sandalwood with oranges and lemon, that fragrance really needs more attention and love because its great! 10 out of 10 Diptyque again, never a disappointment

in fact the accident is mirtle, which makes sense it enhances the smell of sandalwood. Last thing I promise, i dont get the name. Or I mean this could have to do with what we associate with smells, because of what i said I would think this as a very western oriented fragrance and instead it is made thinking to asian forests. Just great how we come to things from completely opposite angles of perspective
