Scent of a vintage theater stage
Upon sniffing it from the bottle i got an overload of dirtiest patchouli so i waited quite a long time until i finally decided to try it on my skin. You see back in the days, when it just came out i sniffed it also from the bottle and it i remember it smelled nothing like strong patchouli to me, so i was confused.
Well, i have sprayed it and indeed upon the opening the only thing i can smell is a strong mix of rose and patchouli. Nothing else, since those two notes overpowering everything else. Glad the this awful opening fades away quite quickly. The opening part is like a stage of the cabaret, with a low light, old stage, sofas which haven´t been cleaned for a long time and have inherited all the smells of the customers. Where is the chypre, everyone is talking about???
Then after a short blast of glitter in the opening it becomes a quiet chypre indeed with patchouli undertone. Funny, that when i smell it from my skin, all i can smell is a strong black tea, but still i feel a cloud of patchouli surrounding me. It smells indeed like a behind-the-curtains space, where all the wood decorations are stored, freshly sawed wood maybe and a hint of painted surfaces. The dancers who have finished their act have brought a bit of smell from the other part of the stage in front of the curtains, so rose and patchouli are still here.
In general i agree that this is a chemical mix of the notes, but somehow the undertone notes make me want to sniff my skin all the time, i wish that the patchouli notes weren´t that strong here. They give a bit of dis-balance to the composition.
This perfume has 2 sides: one is heavy patchouli-rose and other one is incense-peony. I am still trying to figure it out if it will become a choir on my skin or a bunch of notes screaming in dissonance together. But one thing is for sure - I am intrigued and it would be great scent for fall! This perfume has a very delicate composition, but just ruined by it´s opening. One of those rare perfumes, which smell very vintage (no powder here!) but made after 2000´s.
