"For us it is the beast!"
There now stands the poltergeist and the bottle whispers hypnotically:
"Let me in"...
Admittedly, Poltergeist is one of the few scents in my life that I would probably never have tested under any other name or even got on the screen.
In other words, it was only the name that really made me take the test.
Thank God!!
"It knows what scares you..."
The spook starts loud. It bites and scratches and spreads violently and rapidly.
The sourish-balsamic opening note (I suppose mainly the wormwood) makes the chairs shake in any case.
Quite fast juniper joins them, so that it gets a little bit cooler, almost fresher and even a little more spooky.
The already quite demanding prelude suggests that this was not all...
"...that this is not a classic case of haunting but a poltergeist..."
The bulbs are bursting, it's getting cold.
The ancient, solid wooden table in the middle of the room creaks and slides back and forth on the floor.
The table legs crack, the heavy table top is torn apart with a bang and crashes to the floor. Splinters fall, and the smell of the wood increasingly mixes with the (wormwood) spirit that has meanwhile set one of the other pieces of furniture in Brad. The poltergeist has also set the fireplace aflame and the tips of the fire are flickering on the furniture, pictures and houseplants. In the midst of the acrid fire smoke, another almost mystical-looking smoke rises from nowhere and manifests itself.
All kinds of objects fly around uncontrolled and break on the walls and window panes. Lightning flashes outside - and inside.
"This house has many centers..."
Through the broken windows, the furious storm sweeps wet forest air, leaves and branches into the house, which burn on the tongues of fire after a wild dance. Rain whips itself in and drowns a few tongues of flame, which however immediately ignite again.
Flickering lights, fog and smoke. Everywhere.
The walls of the wooden house sweat as they try to protect the surrounding trees from the raging flames... The house shakes. The earth underneath opens up.
"Don't go into the light Carol Anne!"
Poltergeist lives up to its name. Though with that name, it must. Thus he exudes an aura that is very, very unique and in a form I have never seen before. Spooky and full of power. But not destructive.
Smoky woody woody resinous green. Cold and hot at the same time.
And there is light at the end of the tunnel. It beckons and radiates (myrrh) salvation and peace.
Poltergeist is certainly not a scent that you would describe as a "beautiful scent" (even if I feel it that way). Nor can the scent be described as harmonious in the classical sense. Unharmonious in turn would be unfair. Experimental, peculiar and similar words are more appropriate.
To make the curve to the fragrance name again: I personally expect an "olfactory shock experience" (and I mean that in a positive way) when I spray a fragrance called Poltergeist.
Only that the shock finally leads me into rapture and fascination...
Nevertheless, Poltergeist is without question a challenging and undoubtedly a polarizing scent - for me a unique and absolutely wearable work of art.
In this sense:
"This house is clean!"

Small spinning mill at the end:
When I have a lot of money one day, I will release a sequel scent called "Reverend Henry Kane"!
