"In the woods there are things to think about that could lie in the moss for years" (Franz Kafka)
Rarely has a quotation been more suitable for creating a connection to a fragrance than the one above by Franz Kafka. At least there are at least three existential keywords for the "Bracken", which bring us closer to the fragrance: Forest, reflection, moss. Why I will explain in the following:
Forest: If you read the scent pyramid, you could quickly agree with the ratings, a spicy scent awaits you after pressing the spray button. Clearly, there are endless wild notes, but what they create is a forest covered with Kafka. The fragrance is extremely "green" for me and does its name justice, it smells exactly like ferns. Of course, once you have tested it several times, you can smell the individual components - especially cinnamon - increasingly better, but overall the impression remains that you are standing in the forest, maybe by a stream, with wild ferns growing alongside and the sun shining lightly through the foliage.
Moos: Yes, you have to admit that Kafka is right here, too, at least as far as a characteristic of Moss that some people find unpleasant: it smells slightly damp, stale, musty and a little sweaty and muggy. However, those who appreciate the mossy tones of a fragrance will be happy with "Bracken". As already announced, it gives a slightly moist, musty-mossy impression. However, it still keeps within limits enough for the freshness that is also present to get the upper hand. So we can confidently stay on our mossy-fern meadow by the stream and: Think!
Thinking: Yes, it is a beguilingly playful scent that invites you to dream. Whether it has to be for years, as Kafka demands, remains to be seen, but for a few hours certainly. If you find yourself in the described forest landscape during the entire wearing period and can hardly escape the strength of the scent. At least 14 hours it remains with just 2 sprays, my strongest from Amouage. The projection is phenomenal almost the whole time.
You very so with the "Bracken" you get a nice spring scent, which is again more artwork than usual scent. Just something for those special days. Just be careful with very hot temperatures, it might get too moosy and annoy everyone. You should also make sure that you buy it at a good price, otherwise it is outrageously expensive! Last but not least you have to take care that you keep the green forest and don't let it drift off into the cinnamon spice chaos.
Farewell!
