Civet King
And here one has to stand up and applaud Adam's creative streak.
After an initial opening of the best quality Civet juice (nothing pissy), green notes of grass, rose (slightly pungent), marigold (which briefly brought me back to my beloved Bogue -20) and much more arrive. There is also a touch of Indian Oud that makes me think a little of Azman's Risk.
In the base there is Zibbi again to act as a base for the perfume and all the warm side notes to make the fragrance a glue on the skin. Truffle dirties and makes the base more earthy together with oud. Shall we talk about the dark greenish colour of the juice? Mamma mia.
It won me over. Gorgeous!

Very helpful Review 12  
Please do not throw your plastic bottles into nature
Zibi roaming with Zibi Baby
in the rain through the endless savannah
see a cloud of smoke rising in the distance
rising in the distance which arouses their curiosity and so they decide to make their way through the old eaglewood forest
which contains swampy paths: It is said that no one has returned from the smoking sky, but Zibi and Baby had no other choice as a pack of wild musk baboons had long since tracked down their creamy cuddle trail and were very hungry When the stupid monkeys were finally awake, they continued their journey through the cool Oudwald forest, hungry as they were, they dug delicate truffles out of the wet earth, but the creepers would not tolerate this and so they grabbed and pricked them, spraying green sap around them, Zibi and Baby were able to escape at the last second
The rest of the way led along earthy paths to the cedar forest
past colorful flowers and then they reached their destination. But what they found there was no incense fire as they had suspected, shocked
they saw people in full white protective suits burning chemicals in the fire presumably found on the beach they should actually be sleeping now but this frightened them so much that they immediately took flight and cautiously set off on their journey home the next day they could still see the cloud of smoke from afar.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That simply can't be true
sooooo a perfect start for me
Rose, oud, musk, calf warm
cozy emens dense and full of volume strong animalic like the Mongolian musk (dirty mounts) woody, swampy, musty and plant sap dark and resinous just perfect so the scent remains here and there leather fur, hair of civet does not come all this Zibi does not smell like monkey enclosure creamy and balsamic jasmine indolic but far in the background. Artamesia root bitter sudig is there from beginning to end the profile shifts for me to a smoky, earthy incense base cedar supports the ethereal wonderfully but then after an hour
turnaround I thought this is the incense fog that gradually swings into the blue synthetic what comes next is so chemical that I had to cover my arm very badly a little smoke and wood remain recognizable but the drydown is very unpleasant, in my nose only the fixative remains
yes, as if the injection agent with which the poor oud trees are sprayed was not washed out properly, the assumption is obvious
that we are dealing with plantation oud, which would be less bad than trying to unnecessarily prolong the fragrance. And where has Zibi gone anyway - only very little at the start and then hardly noticeable.
90 min a beautiful dream and 12h aroma chemistry I am really disappointed because fragrance in the first hour again and again triggered a must have in me luckily I slept a night about it
i was shocked at what was left on my skin this morning. Such a shame but when I look at the 2 colleagues and the price
yes I should have known.

With best thanks to Schoeibksr for the testing opportunity :)

Animal’s straw bed
A fragrance from the latest edition of 5 fragrances (Musk Collection) from Russian Adam, which comes closest to the DNA of the fragrances he created earlier with an agar-animal component. For fans of Areej Le Doré, this item will be immediately "blindly" recognizable.
From the last edition, this is in my opinion the most "animalic" fragrance, but also without special exaggeration - the name is more "hype" than the fragrance itself. Here we have notes of hay, essential vetiver/green roots?, from which is built the bed of an animal that has temporarily wandered off somewhere. The beginning may be associated with a stable scent with a very high amount of greenery, where citrus still gently pokes through.
Over time, the greenness fades and the agar notes familiar to ALD appear. This time surrounded by slightly moist and mulchy-earthy truffles and delicate very floral notes. The laird of our pet is still present and basically noticeable until the end of the fragrance. The scent is certainly uncommon, memorable and really quite pleasant. I think this will be one of ALD's flagship fragrances.

My first 10
Unsuspecting, I entered the ancient, small antique shop of a crotchety old man.
I was immediately hit by the smell of ancient, greasy, leather-bound books.
Cold, damp hay lay on the somewhat dirty floor, covered in clods of earth.

I slowly rummage through shelves of documents, creeping through corridors littered with antique decorative items and furniture that have long since left their best days behind. A musty, green, old and yet familiar smell settles on me.
A shadow appears between jars of essential oils and civet paste.
The shopkeeper, an elderly gentleman dressed in old robes, looks at me with delight.
After hours of browsing, I finally left the store, but the smell lay on me like a veil.
Pitch black, green-oily film.
Very concise civet, noble flowers, green, damp hay and fine oud.

It is such a balanced, powerful composition that it almost seems to stop time.
For me, a fragrance to close my eyes and enjoy.

Pleasantly animalic, definitely wearable. The fragrance welcomes you with open arms, envelops you and makes you reluctant to let go.

For me a 10/10
