    Very strong initially for a few minutes then fades super quickly. Not my liking. Very mature. Very cheap quality.

    In our world of violence, disorder, confusion, misinformation, straight out lies, deceptions, war, hate, and all those ugly things, here is a sublime divine fragrance from the Holy Land, in the city of Jerusalem which has recently seen violent protests, upheavals and terror. If only the power of love could win over the love of power! Make perfume not war. This fragrance makes me want to cry. Without any real label, this is a warm balsamic unisex Middle Eastern fragrance and oil with incense, woods, spices, florals, resins and musk. A lot of the notes come to you more at once than in a prolonged length of time. I don’t see how this perfume has any real complexity and reminds me of many Arabic oils and perfumes like those of Al-Rehab. Yet it’s soothing, peaceful, and beautiful. It’s aroma therapy for your own body chemistry.
    Opens without any fruits, alcohol or heavy floral notes so it instantly takes you into another realm of fragrance. The initial note of rosewood and lily of the valley are well blended, natural, woodsy, like catching whiffs of greenish-white lilies in the woods. This is a feminine opening for me. Smells of an open space in the middle of a forest. The green earthiness is later magnified by the scent of cloves and the white woods. The light florals of acacia, mimosa and violet are in the background, and they allow the spices (cinnamon and pistachio, vanilla) to take over in the vein of such perfumes as Opium and Shalimar. So no one would peg this as being floral despite the fact that it relies on the florals for a bit of sweetness. The elemi as someone said is reminiscent of paste but that’s not bad. On me this is a spicy and aromatic unisex fragrance, Oriental and soapy, powdery, smoky, warm medicinal, religious. The perfume doesn’t last very long so one has to reapply but it is oil so one has to just dab the oil to the parts in your body (pulse points) you want the scent to flourish.
    As the woods emerge this is a distinct sandalwood scent. The woods are the dominant note in the dry down though one is also smelling a puff of smoke and myrrh, those balsamic and smoky notes so prized by Persian perfumers. This is eventually turning into a soft musk. Finally I want to say that this is a very mature fragrance and is better suited to a long time fragrance wearer than novice. It’s not a commonly worn fragrance, not casual, not sexy, not meant to be worn daily. It seems to be a religious type of oil, trying to recreate the anointing oils found in the 1st century or before, the anointing oils that were used during the crowning of Jewish kings (Saul, David) and it recalls the moment in the New Testament when a woman was scolded by Jesus’s Disciples for pouring the oil on his feet with her hair in public. This can be more masculine than feminine especially in the latter stages but if you like Opium or Shalimar you’ll love this. Seems perfectly suited to religious high holidays (Easter Passover Ramadan) Jewish New Year Hanukah and Christmas. This can be worn to Church services, cathedrals (the incense myrrh note) and Temple/synagogue.
    Shalom.

    I like Ein Gedi Rose of Sharon is very good. This one reminds me an old paste for boots from 1970 communist time in Poland.
    I dont smell any herbs, or flowers. Synthetic.
    Spikenard and Rose of Sharon YES!
    This one – NOPE by any chance.

    I like this! Upon first application I smell sweet wood, resin and incense. Then flowers fade in with lilac and lily of the valley. I’m not sure I can pick out the violet. It could be cloaked by the lilac. This cologne is so classy and delicate! It reminds me of Shalimar Eau de Cologne but instead of leather you have the resin paired with the wood. The mint in this is so subtle but clearly there adding a smidge of coolness to the gentle warmth. Wow this is nice! I don’t think there’s much silage with this, but I applied very lightly. This would be perfect for the office, I can’t imagine anyone being offended. This would be great for layering, I might try it with my sample of Woodcut by Olympic Orchids. 🙂 Thumbs up!
