Immortal dances in the dream forest
(for me an immediate sibling scent to Baba Yaga)

Listed are very few fragrance components.
No idea what hay flowers smell like, it strikes me.
I think I perceive something Sulékó-typical.... No, I refuse to use the word DNA. I think it is, in both Baba Yaga and Djélem, the very interesting, almost spiky clove - in both fragrances supporting element, here softer, more delicate, a bit more feminine.
Like Baba Yaga, this fragrance also demands: although it has a very special lightness, it wants to be worn thoughtfully .... is not heavy or opulent, but still by no means fleeting or airy (and fortunately for me, not aquatic).

Djélem opens with something sweet and spicy. Fresh-cut hay on a hot summer day, is the official description.
Yes, but not only. In the periphery holds itself already at the beginning quietly the almost characteristic garden carnation. In addition, warm amber, as well as the accents of labdanum and vanilla, which give the spiciness of the clove a soft-harmonious frame. As it progresses, a dark, (and I quote) "mesmerizing" immortelle slowly joins in. In my research on this plant, I come across the wonderful word immortal. Yes, that's how it smells to me: dry yet sweetly fruity with tea and chamomile notes. Beautiful.
The fragrance is supposed to represent the wild and passionate spirit of the gypsy people, their dances around the fire - and is named after their hymn - Djélem. If you follow this campfire idea despite the absence of clearly woody-smoky notes, so the fragrance develops like a slowly moving away from the fire, at most with a fantasy of orientalism, to leave the next morning only a very gentle residual breath on the skin, songs and fiddles as the soundtrack of a dream.

Bloom. Spice. Treacle. Almost glowing. Dark and sweet and thick and slow. Ever so slow. There‘s no hurry anymore when all is said and done.
