Solomon's Seal, pine, amaranth, ambrette, cypress, wild tobacco, and hemp.
My apologies that the first review for this scent is not a positive one. :D
I'm a Capricorn, so I was looking forward to this scent. I am sad, sad, sad that my wonky skin chemistry ruined my own Sun Sign scent on me.
In the bottle: Pine.
On: Yep, I still amp pine. This isn't a wet, sharp, resinous pine, though, like they often are. Instead, it's soft, dry, and barky. It stays that way for the first five minutes, and then...
...Oh no. OH no. Something in this goes all cat urine on me! omfgwhy. It's not simply reminiscent of cat urine, it's *just like it*. I have a cat who used to mark a lot, so I'm unfortunately quite familiar with the smell...this smells exactly like fabric permeated with old cat pee.
I don't know what note is responsible for this, as pine and cypress are the only notes in this I'm really familiar with.
I didn't wash it off, because I had to give Capricorn a chance, cat pee or no. Let me say, this scent is a tease - occasionally the uric acid scent is *gone* and I just get a light, earthy pine...and then the urine comes back and wafts around me (yea, urine got throw). Much like my experience with a wool sweater I have that has an old cat stain that just will not budge.
:P
I look forward to
eta: It is definitely the fault of my body chemistry and not that of the scent. I put some on a piece of fabric and it smells wonderful!
