The rum of the octopus
The scent makes my skin crawl!
A dark, old oak barrel stands there, mossy and weathered from months at sea. Black rum is in it, sharp and with lots of ester it pops in my nose. No Spanish sugar fuzz, this is Jamaican overproof. Bags of spices are around, cinnamon maybe, some nutmeg. There's a little bag of saffron, too.
Suddenly there's a green-smoky spiciness, strange, like burning peat. Also a bit metallic or like brass. And actually reminds of gunpowder. I remember Black Powder, there the top note was similar, but with more citrus.
Alternately comes now rum&barrel, smoke, spices until we are sucked after about 4h in the patchouliTabak Nirvana. There is still some vanilla comes up. Insanely good the stuff.
We're talking Botanical Perfume here. How it managed to create this incredibly complex and varied middle part is incredible. I am very surprised. This is the best rum accord I have smelled in a perfume so far.
Durability is just another topic... 4-5h with me, then is out. The samples come in hearty little bottles with built-in rollerpen! The oil you can roll comfortably on the skin. Cool thing
