Diesis Report post Posted July 28, 2023 I’m shocked no one has reviewed this. Wet: Incense that is trying to explain what a violet smells like, but it’s getting nervous & sweating a bit. But it’s mostly right. (Smokey lilac with a frankincense undertone & a sort of skin musk… but not quite? Incense musk? I dunno…) Drydown: It got the hang of violet! But it burnt the petals a bit with the incense. Still good though, still a violet! The musk is either gone, or boosting the resin left behind (it’s not really apparent which resin it wants to be, but it smells lovely & reminds me of the incense I burnt while I was in high school [like 20 sticks for a buck & no one knows what it was trying to be; aka head shop incense without the weed smell]), or red musk gives me the impression of linen? That may not be accurate but something clean & soft (not soap). It last a few hours on me & doesn’t have big throw (if I put my arms down at my side, I can barely smell it & that might be because I know it’s there). The longer it’s on, the less I can pick it apart. It’s mostly lilac headshop incense (that’s my new band name) with a subtle note of laying in a bed that has freshly cleaned sheets (unscented detergent though). Overall, I really like it. If I didn’t already have a massive rotation of scents, I’d buy a back up. But I’m pretty sure it’ll last awhile as a little goes a long way for me. It’s neither cologne leaning or perfume leaning, so I’d call this an easy unisex scent. It’s a bit more smokey like on my brother, but otherwise not much change (lasts longer though). (As an aside, a few times it smelled like a little backyard fire, in a fancy little fire pit with some scented sticks/logs, but it only happened once or twice during dry down. Not sure why, may have been when it was warmed up) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
