Eostre of the Dawn

Recommended Posts

Very much a related scent to Dawn: Maiden, which makes sense considering their similar inspirations/subject matter! The main difference between the two on me is Eostre's jasmine replacing Dawn: Maiden's olive blossom - and Eostre is a beautifully jasmine-centric scent on me (though I also get plenty of honeysuckle, I would call it more of a jasmine), creamy with a gentle indolic edge. Between that and the skin musk (which one me is subtle, it's not a musk-dominant scent, but is definitely an important element) this feels more langorous than Dawn: Maiden, which I find a little gently energetic. The lactonic element here also is more dominant than in Dawn: Maiden, and it's a slightly sweeter scent overall. I most definitely picture this one as yellow and creamy white, very much springtime but appropriate to wear at any time of year.

 

This is lovely, very much my style and I'm so glad I ended up with it. There's a particular magic to Dawn: Maiden's olive blossom which means I think I'd go with that one if I had to choose between the two, but I'm so glad there's no need to! But, by that same token, the similarity to Dawn: Maiden means I'm not devastated about this one's discontinuation, and if anyone is seeking this I would strongly recommend Dawn: Maiden as an alternative.
