Siegfried and the palm forest
What made me buy this fragrance was a good deal of curiosity about the many woody scents that are otherwise hardly found in the perfume database, but which clearly suggest a deep forest. Larch can be found in eleven listed perfumes, European larch is not even in the database. The search for the white fir cone is not successful either, but entering "white" in the fragrance search engine leads to some surprising suggestions : blue-green willow? Only contained in the fragrance "Leonore" by Red Dear Grove, together with vetch ?! - All right, go on!. Beaujolais wine !? Found in "Wine and Roses" by Soul Purpose. All completely uncommented scents so far. At the end of this unexpected educational journey on Google, I still notice: Black pine and Alpine cedar seem to be further unique selling points of the Amber Teutonic.
About the fragrance: A purchased specimen revealed to me a really extraordinary aroma. Soft and resinous, with slightly cool fruit, removes woody - and superficially some sweetness, which seems strangely familiar, but cannot be classified immediately. Anyway - maybe a bit foggy, but Teutonic briskly pushed and shot the bottle - uh - bought, the second time you wear it, the sweetish note comes back immediately. To which of these noble woods do you belong? Yes, now I know what it is! It smells like coconut! Ouch! Instead of standing under a coconut tree in the Teutonic forest myth? What a spoiler! And once you have an image in your head, you can't get rid of it easily. Off to the souk right away? That would be very un-teutonic! The biggest sword swinging Teuton of all times didn't run away just because he couldn't do anything with his sword, but threw tree trunks at the dragon. The direct approach to novel scents is not always the best. Self-deception takes place in one's own head, so why not deceive one's own self-deception? When this sweet aroma jumps at me, I ask: And what kind of mystical coconut are you? Yes, now I can smell it! A superficial, exotic resinous aroma, with cool-tangy fruit and mystical, conifer-etheric tones right behind it. Later, the woody notes become more pronounced. There you go! My advice: try twice before buying.
