Saturnalis

dry, smoky, woody, earthy. barely get rose, more green neroli, with a slight fruity facet. no idea where some of the listed notes are from.

aldehydes, a hint of lemon, slightly minty, with a touch floral laundry musk. it's okay.

very amber-y and incense-y. there is an uplifting, 'blue' freshness, but it's subtle to me. kind of basic overall.

brief mandarin opening with fruity tea, then synthetic coconut shampoo. settles a weird, almost fleshy-meaty musk on a base of vanilla. ew.

strong birch tar on opening, not my fave. then paper, dusty notes and dry leather. the ginger and rum emerge. resinous base. interesting.
