doomsday_disco Report post Posted August 21 Contemplative and aloof, the Glaucous Dragon prefers mist-shrouded beachside cliffs, sea-battered ruins, and fog-thick fjords. These dragons are unapproachable and solemn; their scales are the color of weathered stone, pale sage, silvered fir resin, white amber, beach lichen, and hazy orris.

gentle-twig Report post Posted 2 hours ago God help you now that the con is over, because I'm sorry to say I love this. I don't necessarily want my hair gloss to be doing the most. I mostly use it as a hair product in part of my wash routine, but gotta get the BPAL goodness wherever I can, right? Sometimes HGs really can overwhelm, though. This one doesn't. It's present but soft and will play nice with your other scents. And it is so lovely. Atmospheric, wistful, and interesting. I get a very modern misty veil of fir, sage, and salt, hovering in front of a more opaque vintage-y orris and moss. The latter accord is just kissed with the amber and cooled by the stone, recalling for me Mars & Venus from this year's Lupers if it were a take on a vintage women's perfume instead of a men's powerhouse cologne. That being said, the elements in question have long been co-opted by unisex and even masculine fragrances (Dior Homme, anyone?), so long-haired gentlemen need not feel qualms, especially with that fir, sage, and sea spray keeping things from becoming too boudoir. As a post-shower product, this is just right. Clean without being soapy, perhaps a touch of spa or salon but in a way that can also yield to the romantic visions of the inspiration. And yes, I do feel that this captures the idea of "glaucous," like the bloom on a grape or a plum, is it matte or glossy, light or dark? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
