Mossy narcissus
A good narcissus note is a perfume in itself. Myths Woman tells the story of this pretty spring flower and how it grows and blooms, while keeping things in a delicate harmony with the supporting greens. The scent starts on a dark winter day and slowly progresses to early spring.
With the dank galbanum in the opening, the first impression tends towards wilted flower water. Dark and austere, almost depressed. The galbanum note recedes, but the narcissus continues to rise and shine. Grandpa's socks, honeyed hay, pollen-rich flower fields in spring.. they all come by as the narcissus displays its numerous facets. This all takes place on a dark earthy moss field, the ideal stage for this green-floral performance. The story ends with a narcissus in full bloom. Yellow-gray sparkles fill the air. It is still chilly cold, but the darkest days are behind us now.
This scent leaves a cold-hearted "leave me alone" impression to most of us. It may remind one of green chypres of the old days, think Scherrer. For me personally, the green-bitter nature and the way narcissus is used here makes me feel at home. Comfortable all by myself. Bliss.
