BPAL Tags: Biblical - Antichrist, Carnation, Haughty, Lavender, Leather, Musk - White, Nobility, Sage, Vanilla, Wood - Cedar
In the vial: Cedar, something faintly sweet, something that's probably leather.
Wet: Cedar, carnations, and yep that's leather. At nose-to-skin distance there's also a little pencil shavings.
30 minutes: Cedar sweetened by carnations and vanilla, and then the leather pops and makes it more complex. Not getting any lavender at all.
Five Hours: Mellow blended cedar/sweet/leather.
Love this and want it. It was a frimp Synecdochic sent me and it was on my wish list because of a comment on a review. I dislike lavender, and generally like leather but had no idea what it would be like in a scent. Never would have wish-listed it without that comment.
The comment described it as Ronan Dex walking in the woods with a few crushed flowers underfoot. That was … a really vivid scent image.
