Description
“Summer in Stockholm. The sun is an amulet, suspended above the city. Each evening, it contemplates its descent only to change its mind and return to its position overhead. Under its perennial glow, night fuses with day, creating a feeling of limitless possibility. Crisp lemon zest, warm almond, the uplift of geranium, with a tinge of patchouli and a drift of faraway green fields in the breeze.” – a note from the brand.

Pure aldehydes with rosemary and a touch of softness with almond and musks. Very soapy actually!

The opening is a wonderful geranium-rosemary-moss-ambergris aroma that is both fascinating and unique
As the first 10 minutes pass by, the middle phase consists of lemon-moss-pepper where it gets spicier as the time passes
However, it must be noted that this also smells strongly of frankincense (or Arabic gum) and this unlisted ghost note seems to be present throughout the longevity of the scent
As the scent begins to mellow, a slight touch of almond begins to kick in and the geranium makes an appearance again while the moss continues to dominate
This is a very unique smell and is definitely unisex best suited for cooler weather

The most abstract and interesting of the whole line but in general the rest of the perfumes follow current trends, so don’t expect any novelties or innovation. I would happily wear it along with Morning Chess (an airy, transparent patchouli) if they weren’t so unreasonably expensive.
