How do you talk about a fragrance which is a story, an emotion? I am involved with this frag and my review is nothing but subjective.
Oman, 2021 batch. I have no idea what to expect as it was a (crazy risky but oh so rewarding) blind buy. Without looking at the pyramid, I get: paint, ink (the pleasant felt-tip pen type), books, a basket that once contained ripe plums with a sour shiny skin and sweet flesh. Sour, bitter, sweet, woody, shiny smooth and rough - the juxtaposition is fascinating! It is everything I wanted and more (incomparable, unique, unexpected), and it makes me feel like I'm keeping a shared secret, warm and mysterious.
I wanted something unusual, for myself only. I don't know whether it will be a compliment-getter and neither do I care. This one is more than "just" a scent for me, it's a state of mind, an experience, something to fill my heart and my mind. Love it!
Update: compared to the EDP, the extrait is more concentrated obviously, with more pronounced metallic and bitter notes; whereas the EDP has more plum and is gentler, with softer and more diffuse woody notes.
