John Wayne smokes a cigar
The attack is spicy-resinous, subdued by a creamy-milky note with a slight freshness.

Mmmmh, I thought -- He suits me!! I am a girl with a rough shell and a soft core ;-)
So in the morning sprayed on (carefully, as always with new fragrances, only 2 sprayers on the wrist) and out into the everyday madness, inhaled at the latest hourly at the wrist.

After one hour, high-quality leather slowly spreads and the soft creaminess disappears.



After about three hours it gets slightly scratchy and I constantly look around, because I have the feeling that a smoker (yes, clearly male) is standing directly behind or next to me - but there is nobody.
Checked on the wrist - well, I'm the "smoker".
I've already put this vice behind me several years ago, but I still like the smell of fresh tobacco very much.
And this is exactly what I smell all afternoon ---- wonderful Tuscan cigar!
During the shopping trolley rally in the supermarket, cooking in the afternoon, I keep looking around and looking for a cowboy in a leather jacket with a cigar in his hand, who should be standing next to me, but my wrists are playing a trick on me

At some point it was too much for me, I don't want to smell like a smoking John Wayne.
The scent is wonderful, but for me not wearable,
it's just not me.

everything flows....
...and some of it's gone.
According to the world network the concept pantha rei sums up a Heraclitus river doctrine.
He once postulated that a continuous metabolism and change of form takes place. A metaphor for the process of the world.

Well, to be honest, the combination of frankincense with aquatic notes in the top note moved me quite profanly to a test of the fragrance, as these are my two favorite fragrances, which I see united here for the first time.

Immediately after spraying, it is first very fresh and clear, almost airy fresh - but only a few minutes, then incense immediately comes through with slightly bitter accompaniment. According to the description, this is probably the thyme, although I would not have recognized it as such.
After about an hour it gets very quiet, just a soft whisper. I have to put my nose directly to my skin to see something else.
It becomes a soft, gently creamy tone that is only gently roughened - I can't really recognize anything concrete. Apart from some vetiver (the slightly earthy one), the complete middle part is missing. There remains only a tender musk ambered base.

i'm really disappointed, a dreamy start that disappears very quickly.
Or is that how it's supposed to be?
Finally Heraclitus said: "Everything flows and nothing remains"
