Treasure hunt in a sea of flowers
Wafting petals of dark rose blossoms - so unsweet, yes, a touch of soap.
Peppered violets descend - I roam over flower meadows in my thoughts.
Every pollen, every seed, pollen tickles my nose.
Blossoms upon blossoms of every color and hue, my flower heart beats in ecstasy.
On the dark soil of the patchouli, fine vapors loll, sway.
A thick haze of cool incense, in which jasmine blossoms bathe.
In the midst of this sea of flowers, he who wants to find will find a chest of strange gifts.
Fine, dark woods in leather pouches, velvety soft, together with vanilla pods tempting you to feast on them.
But hidden in the last bag made of leather in velour.
There is a hint of soft musky fluff like a trail of shooting stars.
Fin.

I actually wanted to start testing some Ojars a good six months ago, but due to the mass of bottlings I've accumulated and a short creative break, I've only just got around to it. Anyway - I'll start with Ojar's Stallion Soul. I was expecting a clearly oud-focused fragrance with beautiful incense accents, coarse leather, lots of musk and some flowers. But what was revealed to me during my tests was miles away from that. To break it down succinctly, Stallion Soul is a very floral fragrance consisting of a slightly darker, not too sweet rose, lots of violet and very tolerable jasmine. A hint of incense and delicate suede contrast the pleasing mix of flowers until light musk, sweet patchouli, a hint of vanilla and a hint of "oud" are added from hour to hour. I was a little disappointed by the dosage and nature of the latter ingredient in particular. Considering that Stallion Soul originates from Ojar's oud line, I would have expected a little more here. Instead, you get a diffuse mix of dark woods. All in all, Stallion Soul is a beautifully balanced and well-composed floral blend with a slightly oriental twist that is convincing in everyday applications thanks to its unobtrusiveness and softness.
