Adam- black leather, pale sandalwood, ambergris accord, and the memory of a long-lost Victorian fougère. The scent of the wood of his guitars, the rosin from his violin bow, the musty wool of neglected Oriental carpets, the plastic, metal, and magnetic tape of his reel-to-reel, the dust that permeates everything.

9/15 This one is so weird it's impossible to describe. Sort of hospital at the beginning, sort of evil floral without being overpowering flowery, a bunch of musk but not any of the placeable ones, slightly sweet but not really.
