An oasis that doesn't fully restore me
It can represent a refreshment point in the middle of a sultry summer. It is a perfume with many facets, which can be worn always, but not by everyone.
In the first phase we pass through the scents of various citrus fruits, the grapefruit is the first and the most prominent, but we can distinguish the mandarin, the lemon (even if only for a few seconds) and then the petit grain, which is not listed in the notes.This stimulating blend goes on for about 2 minutes (they are fresh citrus, not sweet). After that there is a clear transition to the central notes, as if you sprayed another perfume. The central phase is composed of 30% blackcurrant which gives it a sulphurous sensation, 30% patchouly, which makes its earthiness evident, 20% sweetness given, probably by the juice of a blonde orange . The remaining 20% is covered by the creaminess of the sandalwood. The musky note is less evident. As time passes, we can see a progressive increase in sweetness, as if, while crossing the desert, we had found the much-desired oasis, but to refresh ourselves, we were only offered to us fruit candies.
