White Flowers and White Water
Actually, this was supposed to be a statement, but I rambled so much that it can also be published as a review.
In short, the scent is fruity-herbaceous, but quickly transitions into a white floral. To me, it smells a bit like milk, but not in a sweet gourmand way. White-blooming flowers with milk, this has some similarities to Anema from the same brand.
In any case, the flowers fade after a few hours, leaving behind a (somewhat less spectacular) sweet base. Musk, amber, a hint (thankfully not more) of tonka, and of course the milk aspect. I hardly find the scent aquatic.
And where does the milk come from? Coconut milk like in Anema is not present. Perhaps the orange blossom with the spurge. Maybe in a better world, the sea is made of milk.
I write a lot about the milky accord that I smell, but please don't get me wrong, it is not the main player in this fragrance. Yet it is always in the background and, given the fragrance pyramid, hard to grasp. I am curious how this aspect will be perceived by other noses.

Against cardboard mouths, only cola helps
Uncommented scent - wait a minute, wrong movie! The right movie: it's late 2022 and Scholz is about to legalize Bubatz. In front of me stands Dua's Cannabliss with the Mobster. Wild times.
This fragrance came to me unexpectedly. For some time, I had been fascinated by Nasomatto Black Afgano, but not enough to justify the price. By pure chance, I don't even remember how, I stumbled upon Cannabliss with the Mobster (thanks to Caligari!) as a potential alternative.
First, about the bottle: quite nice, on the hefty side. Simple label. The sprayer dispenses sparingly, but it stays sealed.
The opening of the fragrance is a burying cola. Less Coca-Cola, more cola candy, but not really sweet. Perhaps cola without carbonation fits as well. The already mentioned organic cola also captures it well. There’s still no trace of the Kush here. The projection during this time is very strong, and the cola note is quite overwhelming for sensitive noses.
But this phase doesn’t last long. After just a few minutes, the Mary Jane makes an appearance and the scent becomes noticeably darker. Here, the similarities with Black Afgano and its mysteriously dark zoo become clearer.
The tobacco is very shy. A slightly sweet tobacco can be sensed, but nothing more. It takes almost an hour for it to dare to step more into the spotlight. But that’s a good thing; overly sweet tobacco would not have contributed positively, as cola and fox are already too strong on their own. In this respect, I find the tobacco note well integrated here.
Whiskey? During production, at most one bottle fell over. If someone drinks whiskey that tastes like this, they have my sincere condolences. Even after several hours, whiskey cannot be found. If one really wants, they can sniff out something similar to rum, but for me, that’s more the tobacco.
As soon as Cannabliss starts to weaken, it also becomes more bitter. The cola accord never completely disappears, but the similarities with Black Afgano become stronger and stronger.
While Black Afgano is the Satanist dressed in black in the woods, Cannabliss is the (obligatory) mobster sitting in a club with live music and smoking a rabbit. Cannabliss is the good cop, Black Afgano is the bad cop.
Ultimately, I wish for more Loudpak and less cola. Even though it is, objectively speaking, quite an interesting combination, subjectively it’s just too much of a good thing for me.
