doomsday_disco Report post Posted June 17 Rain-soaked leaves, lightning-struck wood, gleaming black myrrh, smoked cedar, hinoki, and black tea. Yosa Buson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted July 21 Kite and Two Crows is mostly about the rain-soaked leaves on me, and the leaves are a fresh, green variety -- there are no dead leaves to be found here! This is backed by the woods and resins, as well as some dry tea. I do get a bit of smokiness from the cedar note, but it's not overly smoky -- there's just a touch of smoke that is present in the early drydown of the scent, but the smokiness doesn't last long beyond that. This has good throw and staying power, and it reads as fresh, but also somewhat cologne-like, to my nose. I don't feel the need to upgrade this one to a bottle, but if you're looking for rain-soaked leaves, this scent has got you covered! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forspecial_plate Report post Posted August 10 This is really nice! It goes on almost soapy but not quite - just on the edge of soapy, maybe the leaves? But then the tea note comes in and whatever was soapy fades back. I agree it has a cologne-like aspect. Eventually the woods come through stronger and I'm getting a seaside feeling I wasn't expecting, kind of like the lab's cypress note that turns up in some oceanic scents. But mostly this is in the same general family as Autumn Sun I, Autumn Landscape with Flock of Turkeys, and also October 32, from memory. Might have to do some death-matching but I love all these scents and each one has its own little differences, so I'm happy to wear all of them, from spring all the way up to late fall.
