Sharp myrrh and herbs initially. Then a warmth of almost cooked carrots blends with resinous smoky vanillic woods. The initial blast almost had me running, but stay with it and it heads to the churchy burning incense zone. I'm really confused to the stated notes of this line because i'm just not picking them up as they say.
I've given this sample box a good run and my overall verdict is 'challenging'. If you like unusual scents then this range may be what you seek. 'Pretty' doesn't seem to come into it but 'interesting' does.

This one has a quite gentle churchy myrrh herbal drydown that is worth persevering for.

Clean and rippingly anisic green. This is like a fresh roar of the most fantastic natural organic fruity/minty toothpaste mouthwash blended skilfully with hospital antiseptic. The more of this range I smell, I'm actually beginning to like the sheer craziness of these fragrances. They are right off the wall.

Either my nose is wrong today or again, I'm just not getting the notes that I read here. I'm getting fruity peppermint in big doses and there is no peppermint listed. The drydown is calming and getting more woody spruce. I may do these again another day.

Gigantic, what I thought was initially Myrrh, but then huge liquorice. It reminds me strongly of the French twigs in the market that are for chewing. It is like an olfactory photograph of them in sharp focus. The liquorice woodiness and sappy strands of sharp and natural liquorice. I would love to eat this.

As it dries down, I am transported to lying on my back on a haybale in mellow evening sunset and still chewing my now frayed and much more woody stick.

I really like this for the uncompromising and straightforward scent photo. It makes me want to go and buy one of these sticks and smell it side by side to this aroma. As a perfume, you are left in no prior doubt of this aroma in it's entirety if you have ever smelled one of these chewing sticks.

A whollop of sweet heliotrope-like tonka-ish sweeties with a violet type of peach. Green leafy twigs stirring into a floral, watery fruit salad made of plastic. The notes I read here bear no resemblance to what I just think I just smelled. An extraordinary composition that would lead me to ask about its inspiration origins. A very 'modern' composition, like a plastic fruit bowl on a plastic tablecloth and some scented plastic flowers. I could probably see this on an extremely modern and extreme fashionista wearing a see through perspex dress and chasing the extremes of avant guard style.

A pleasant enough, slightly sweet, herbal, almost Indian aroma that is reminding me of walking into an Indian sari shop and hanging around the joss stick sales area. There is a pleasing dustiness to this composition along the saffron and rose lines. A highly familiar sort of scent that reminds one of sticky indian sweet pastries mixed with dark woods in a dark and extremely dusty room with a heap of dried rose petals in the corner. There is a cold aspect that hangs in there with all the dusty, rose, indian florals and woods that just about saves this from being synthetic vanillary cloying. The dustiness could do with a little taming to take it nearer to freshness. Otherwise this is pleasant.
