Hay, spices, maple, woods--outdoors, indoors, and altogether fall/winter

Sampling Pineward Perfumes Steading, a spicy, resinous, borderline animalic blend that might be among the most provocative of the house that I’ve tried so far, with listed notes of tobacco, hay, beeswax, barley, dried needles, poplar, hops, maple, and wisps of peat smoke. The hay in particular seems prominent, and reminds me of the hay note in Slumberhouse Sova (in which it is similarly central), complemented by woody notes, the resinous beeswax, and a touch of sweetness via maple. It has the effective of being an ensemble of fall/winter notes, creating a mostly outdoorsy vibe that nonetheless has roughly foody aspects added to it, not as purely outdoors as the more arboreal entries in the line but not particularly gourmand-like like Apple Tabac or Revelries.

Steading is certainly a bit less safe than some of the other woodier entries but I love it all the more for that. Again, I’ll need to retry it alongside some of the others but this is an easy love for me.

Steading has the same pricing as the rest of the line, at $135/80 for 37/17ml.

The real By the Fireplace

It is winter, the family is sitting in the living room by the fireplace. The electricity has failed, which is why everyone has gathered around the warming source and is staring spellbound into the flames. Every half hour, the father throws new briquettes into the stove, as a precaution, so that the only source of light and heat does not go out. Every time he opens it, the smell of burning wood permeates the room.
Hungry, the family munches on a pack of dried plums. Just before the power went out, the grandmother was making dinner - there was going to be roast and sauerkraut. Half-cooked, the beautiful meal now smells abandoned in the kitchen, only making them hungrier.
Stories are told to pass the time. The children listen intently to the adults' tales of times when this was a perfectly normal situation. Whiskey and beer is brought out of the cellar to add to the cozy atmosphere.
After some time, the electricity is running again, the food can be enjoyed belatedly and the fire slowly goes out. Only the whiskey glasses that have not been cleared still give off their aromatic, full scent.
The true By the Fireplace.

A Great Maple and Tobacco Journey...

Steading goes on with a barley infused slightly smoky maple syrup accord with hints of supporting dry tobacco leaf before transitioning to its heart. As the composition enters its early heart the dry tobacco leaf becomes the sole star for about an hour and a half before the maple syrup makes a return and swaps places with it now with the tobacco still detectable, but in a supporting role joined by a faint background of coniferous greens that meld particularly with the maple. During the late dry-down the composition morphs multiple times as it first adds a near sanitized patchouli-like aspect to the maple and tobacco before finally settling on the focal maple yet again through the finish. Projection is good and longevity outstanding at well over 15 hours on skin.

Steading is a tough composition to pin down as the perfume shifts gears several times throughout its development... and it is all good. The natural maple syrup accord seems to be the most prominent throughout, but the tobacco is also quite key and resembles that of dry tobacco leaf found in fine cigars. The most puzzling aspect to the composition's development is in the beginning of the late dry-down, as what can best be described as a patchouli-like facet emerges to meld perfectly with the maple and tobacco. I don't believe there is any patchouli in Steading, but rather the illusion of the ingredient or something similar, which smells absolutely incredible when combined with the other components and is probably my favorite part of the perfume's fascinating journey. The bottom line is the $128 per 37ml extrait bottle Steading provides the wearer an incredible journey from start to finish, earning it an "excellent" 4 stars out of 5 rating and a strong recommendation to all. Very impressive!
