Tonight I wanted to give BA some love. This one is a love or hate fragrance in my mind and I believe my 5th wearing. Challenging at times and god forbid go easy on the sprays. The first time I wore this I did 6 sprays and I swear I was tripping balls from it. Pardon the expression.
This is a smoke spicy woody resinous incense bomb.
Please don’t think you will smell like weed/pot. It’s not a hippie pot smoke smell. 😂.
Well blended and excellent ingredients.
I may get hammered for this. No it’s not actual Oud in here. But the synthetic is not harsh or abrasive at all.
Long lasting and warming. No it’s not a projection bomb although it does project about 2-3 feet and the sillage is excellent. Be careful not to spray on clothing as it will obviously stain. Longevity is excellent at 6-8 hours then skin scent. I will absolutely smell this still in the morning on me and my bed linen.
This one did take some time to get to know it and learn its nuances and progression. I still feel as if I’m getting a hint of black and pink pepper with this even though the notes aren’t listed.
3 season frag that I don’t feel would do well in the heat of summer but possibly in a evening setting would work fine.
Another Nasomatto that I highly recommend and am grateful to have. No they are not cheap at around $100-$120/30ml. This will last me for a very very long time.
I struggle at this time to give it a number rating as I’m feeling as if I’m still trying to peel back the onion layers of it but if pressed I would say a solid 8.8ish/10.
Be well all.
