A ghoulish and tortured scent, suffused with the blackness of space illimitable: ajowan, vetiver, black musk, opoponax, mimosa, and tamarind.
I was really looking forward to this one because I love opoponax, vetiver, and black musk. (I'm not entirely sure was ajowan and tamarind smell like though. Truth be told, I'm not an expert on mimosa, either.)
At first it smells mostly dark and musky with a sweet resin scent. There's a little bit of some sort of spice that starts to come out on drying, but that doesn't make it smell hot or like there's something burning, which I was a little afraid might happen. I think these are the most understated spices I've ever smelled in a blend. Also the scent seems like it's on the verge of becoming powdery but it never actually gets there.
The spicy factor in this is very gentle, almost foody, and that's combined with the sweet and almost powdery resin over the dark and smoky vetiver. All that together equals EXACTLY the kind of scent that I love. This is really, really good. Just what I was hoping for. YAY! I love it!
