wilhelmscream Report post Posted March 20 [Googles cloudberries] Ohhhhh, cloudberries! Sure, sure. Not a salmonberry. Kinda close. Its colder climate cousin. In the bottle, it's lemon zest and some ambery, frothy ambergris musk. On the skin, uhhh... Fascinating. [A few minutes later] Okay, the only way I can think to describe this is... post-sex skin smell? It's a little salty, a little sweet, even a little sour? You've got the salty muskiness of the ambergris, the sweetness of the amber musk. It's like sweat on sweet skin. A little tangy from the lemon zest. I don't know what a cloudberry smells like, but there is a definite berry smell in there. Really fascinating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zaani Report post Posted April 14 (edited) This one smells vaguely unisex leaning slightly cologne to me. It's nice, not sweet at all. I know cloudberries by the local name bakeapples and they're very tart orange berries. I don't smell them super strongly, I'm mostly getting the ambergris and musk. Edit: Trying this again now that it's settled, and I'm getting more of the fruitiness from the cloudberries and lemon sticking around. It's a nice fresh scent, and very interesting. I keep coming back to this one! Super lovely to wear, and I find it kind of fresh and calming. Edited April 28 by Zaani Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted 9 hours ago Sogblettur ended up being pretty funky on me during the first few hours of wear, and I attribute that to the amber musk. I think this must feature the fossilized amber note that my skin does not always do very well with. The funky amber, combined with the slightly salty, musky ambergris, just are creating a good combination on my skin. These notes are accompanied by the lemon zest, which adds a refreshing quality to the scent, but can't cover up the funk of the amber musk. I sadly did not get much cloudberry like in Gnome Fracas, which was the main reason I wanted to try this scent. This was a skin chemistry fail on me, but I think it would be nice and refreshing for someone who can pull off this particular amber musk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
