Bambu4a – :
I love Iceland. Been there twice. So I had to have this scent. I took a chance and bought it without testing it. It is much lighter than the scents I usually go for, but I like it. It’s a great everyday sort of perfume.
It starts really fresh and citrusy, and moves into a wet, juicy and green phase with a hint of sea air. I guess it is supposed to illustrate the first impression people usually have of Iceland – the intense green landscape, and the ocean that surrounds it.
Then the scent erupts into spicy warmth, like a volcano or a geysir. It’s still moist in a way, but not as cool as the wetness of sea water.
The next phase is deeper, more like earth and wood. Cedar wood is a prominent note, and it brings this feeling of being in touch with the heart of Iceland, I think. I can still smell faint notes of green and sea, and with the dark, smokey earthiness of vetiver it all comes together. The wild nature, the sometimes rough climate, the colours of land and sea – all mixed together in a bottle.
At the very base of this perfume lies a cozy, soft vanilla. It tones down the pungent earthiness and gives the scent a smooth finish. It gives me the feeling of finally coming home, curling up in front of a crackling fireplace and enjoying a big cup of vanilla tea after spending the entire day out in the wilderness.
The scent lasts quite long on my skin, about 10-12 hours. The sillage is intense at first, but then it goes down to a medium. Not to strong, a perfect everyday scent with a slight masculine undertone.
