wet: As I recall it was mostly leather and a bit of spice. Not unpleasant, but rather strong.
dry: This is heavenly! I get hints of a powdery softness that must be the tonka, and again a spiciness that puts me in mind of cinnamon--I don't know if that's the leather mixing with the fruit and my own scent, but whatever it is, I love it! There is something edible here too, must be the fruit--I'm fighting the urge to lick the crook of my elbow.
Oh, I know. this reminds me of pomander balls, where the scent of the fruit itself is extremely faded but the spiciness lingers on--pomander balls and leather with a trickle of--chocolate? Yes, chocolate. Maybe that's the rum.
**the more I sniff, the more notes i make out--this is certainly a complex one!**
I'm starting to get the impression that my skin amps up and runs wth anything vaguely spicy. I had this happen yesterday with whatever it is I tested out and didn't review, like a silly. Good thing I'm a fan of spicy scents.
