"Hotspot" in the glacier ice
Who has ever experienced that fragrances can change temperature? I first got this idea while sniffing this extravagant perfume.
To "click" it to some extent I would like to quote an example from nature.
An ice-cold glacier, paired with a geyser, bubbling and hissing 100 degrees hot water, pours out of a hole in the eternal ice. Warming from a safe distance, but the feet are ice-cold.
The MINZE makes "glowing spicy" cinnamon and hot-flowered clove look like chilled, to stroke the nose as a "hot-cold" aroma mix. Even the woods look like they are covered with a hint of frost powder.
I could also express it the other way round...mint and bergamot are "poured over" like lava from clove and cinnamon, woods add their "smoky" whisper and create an unmistakable scent cocktail that is wearable by everyone who loves it slightly extravagant.
Also the trend towards "niches" may be given to "force majeure" without being considered an "extreme outsider scent".

Opportunity makes love (to fragrance)
I recently had a great perfume exchange. My smell against this "Mirto", who chilled there so "innocently" in the souk of my exchange partner before itself. But when I walked on the fragrance page and read the fragrance description, he aroused great curiosity in me. I'd like to have that as a barter object.
"Well done!!" I have to praise myself now. When I tested "Mirto" as soon as I received it, I had a wonderfully fresh and tart, spicy and flowery, woody and earthy "Fougéré" in my nose, which stands out from other perfumes of this genre
The juniper lavender spicy entry note is very soon supplemented with fresh-herb floridity. which is quite cool by mint and powdery by iris at the same time. As fresh and bright as fresh snow. And that in the middle of midsummer heat.
All this peppered with "delicious" Koreander.
Another AHA experience comes during the long lasting fragrance process. A mossy-green and earthy vanilla surprise, which steers the whole fragrance again into another, but equally smelling, great direction.
A kind of scent, which turns the corner over detours and offers a different panorama behind each turnoff.
I discovered a scent over a previously unimagined opportunity that I very much like to smell. Opportunity sometimes makes love, to perfumes you wouldn't have thought of in your wildest scent dreams.

Amazing, mysterious, first class
A scent, as it stands in (nature) beech. The mixture of cypress and frankincense in the main theme gives an astonishing aroma of itself that I have not yet smelled SO.
The small "introduction" with cardamom and pepper gives only a vague idea of what a first-class "lecture" a "professor of fragrances" follows.
Gently lulling with warm voice and smoky undertone. Green in the theme but also to one of the foremothers / fathers of the fragrance art, the incense leaned against and very mysterious, almost mystical, radiating.
Eau Des Baux" is not bound to any gender. (I generally don't assign fragrances to a "sex", but distinguish between e.g. "sweet, flowery" and "rough, woody". Or "light, aquatic" and "dark, smoky")
"Eau des Baux" has something slightly dark and smoky, but is also woody-vanilla with a hint of "healthy spice", which gives the fragrance something "noble" and a large portion of timelessness.
My nose, which knows many, many fragrances, can still be inspired and almost captured when the "fragrance theme",

House Smoke in Leather Patchouli Coat
Deep down in the core of my soul, this scent holds me captive. Reminds me of a medieval settlement.
A slightly warped house, with wood smoke coming out of its chimney. I'm always drawn near him, but don't dare go inside. NOT YET. Cause there's nobody home.
I wait, on bumpy, damp cobblestone the moon reflects. An elderly gentleman from the darkness behind bushes approaches me directly and asks for my desire. Friendly, but astonished to find a female being so late in the evening.
I don't talk long around "the hot stuff" and answer that it pushes me to look around this house because it reminds me of something I could only experience indoors.
So he invites me in, and I see fire burning in the brick fireplace, a cosy warmth surrounds me.
On the rough walls hang tanned leather, on a wooden table stands a stoneware vase with herbs, they smell bittersweet. And earthy.
It makes me feel at home in here. I want to stay. But it's just a dream. The scent of "leather, patchouli and woods" is real.
Now, all of a sudden, I know which real facts underlie this dream.
When I was a child, I often visited my grandmother in the neighbouring village. She actually lived in an ancient stone house. She didn't have a TV. But the old landlords often invited us to the evening television, there was also a stove, which was heated with wood.
And on the table were ALWAYS WIESENKRÄUTER in a vase. Mr. J. had a leather coat hanging from the hook in the hallway, the leather emanated an inimitable smell when he put it on or took it off.
After "leather" anyway, but also after "forest and meadow" slightly earthy, patchouli-like. Perhaps Mr. J. had one of those aftershaves that had penetrated his coat collar over the years. And then Mrs. J. made us a herbal tea that tasted delicious. All these "cozy" scents seem to reawaken in "Dharwah".
To put me into "dreams", which are not so "dreamlike", because it was true, that the evening "sitting in the living room" with the old couple J. together with grandma..

The noble scent of the wild rose
Sure, this scent can be controversial. Fragrance lovers who appreciate gently sweet roses can stumble over "Wild Roses" with their nose.
Even those who love it "bright and friendly".
But for me this fragrance is a true treasure trove of aromas, which I sometimes miss in "modern" rose fragrances.
This rose corresponds to the true nature of these flowers, which originally contain over 400 different scent molecules, very complex, from "spicy" to "green" to "indolent" and "flowery".
And in my opinion, this perfume embodies this complicated symphony of fragrances par excellence. Friendly, yes, but not "sugar sweet." This friendliness is rather slightly rough in nature. One should be able to interpret "Rough shell, soft core".
It is also surrounded by a kind of "darkness", one of the variety "deep and protective"
Everything is still supported by Patchouli and Vetyver, which makes "Wild Rose" very mystical and mysterious.
Anyone who has ever smelled unfilled, extremely prickly "wild roses" (mostly Rosa Gallica) knows what I mean,
Firstly, the "wild roses" are the origin of all fragrant roses, "refined" by ever new crossings.
Secondly, "wild roses" contain almost ALL fragrances together, which makes for an incredibly diverse aroma.
For me one of the ULTIMATIVE ROSE fragrances at all.
