My expectations for this were so low I spritzed it on just before I was going to shower – another new niche brand I’d never heard of with a gimmicky brand concept (music the perfume is composed to resemble) put together by unfamiliar noses. A quick spritz to confirm and then move on. But then, instead of a thin and skimpy layer of naturals barely covering a sharp and nose singeing synthetic skeleton like I was expecting, something beautiful happened. I was so transfixed I skipped showering until the next morning when the fragrance finally completed it’s three part performance.
So what does it smell like? Honestly, I think I’ll need another wearing to get a real handle on it but I don’t want to wait before saying something in case the sample gets lost in the pile.
First off, this has nothing to do with tea. On the website it’s describes as a “fantasy tea.” Turns out that their fantasy tea is spiked because what this smells like is mostly a spicy, boozy amber with a hint of fruitiness and a liquorice-y note of immortelle.
The opening reminded me a bit of Sables with the spice and immortelle but this one has a wonderful fruitiness to it that magically never overpowers or becomes syrupy. Instead it adds a complexity. The second movement of the fragrance is where the booziness kicks in. It also seemed a bit salty at this point. I was plagued by the sense that I had smelled something similar before but wasn’t able to put my finger on it. My best guess is Parfums d’Empire’s Ambre Russe, but it’s been at least six years since I smelled that so take that with a big grain of salt.
The last part was a return to the fruitiness. This was probably the sweetest phase and just what you would want from a dry down a fuzzy, fruity amber with a hint of vanilla.
Longevity was good. Sillage excellent. I would describe it as completely unisex, skewing masculine.
Mostly what I want to say though, is that this is beautiful work, deserving of a wider audience. It came to me in my Sens Unique box and reminded me why I subscribed in the first place, because sometimes my instincts are wrong.
