Very oily muscatel sage with a dash of vanilla - I can't see pea soup directly, but I can guess the relationship ;) Because the smell has something of a meal - for example a spicy-fatty dinner that has been standing untidy on the old wooden table for some time - the guests have left, only the stories are still in the room.

The labdanum and the woods become more dominant over time, occasionally I also hear the lipstick-powdery iris. Towards the end Patchouli remains together with the resin,

In general, this fragrance is both dominant and restrained, warming and fascinating at the same time, without being really graspable. As with Gabriella Chieffo, for me this is often not a scent for the public but rather a private story that echoes. Catalyst rather than reactant.

Cheap Tauerade
The opening of Hystera is an ambroxan (or other ambroxide aromachemicals) galore with a bitter-roasted undertone, a subtle amber accord, green “dark” aromatic notes (sage, perhaps angelica or artemisia too), on a base comprising – to me – patchouli, woods (and ambroxan). It shows initially quite a similarity with some Tauer’s works, notably his “Tauerade” base accord of ambroxan and spices – same sort of synthetic, dusty, slightly smoked-dusty grayish feel, just perhaps greener and woodier here. After some 50-60 minutes it emerges a central dark earthy yet slightly floral note which kind of reminds me of rhubharb, taking Hystera far from Tauer and closer to works like L’art de la Guerre by Jovoy, and that type of “new fougères”. So, halfway that and L’air du désert marocain drydown. It shall contain iris too, but I don’t really get much of that – just perhaps get a generic, plain and quite dull powdery-sweet feel after a while. Mostly it’s all greenish-woodish ambroxan to me. The drydown is pretty much identical for hours, increasingly sour and rubbery. Bit boring, plain and dull, and quite trendy (also quite late, actually). Another “new Italian niche sensation” we didn’t really need. Meh...
