HerbGirl Report post Posted January 1 Another love. I adore mulberries and it is so rare to see them in a perfume oil. Hard to describe but mulberries are really deep and sweet (yet bitter?) in a way that is very different from any other berry. I love all leaf smells. I wasn't sure I liked this at first, but I kept returning to my wrists and was enjoying what I was smelling. It grew on me. Almost like a poem that you know you're supposed to like but then you finally get it and it all makes sense. Bittersweet mulberries, yellowing mulberry leaves and yes, just a bit of lemon to round it out and give it a bit of contrast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted February 8 I've tried this a few times. Although it features the Lab's dead leaves note, the dead leaves here are not as harsh as they are in other blends. The lemon peel is strongest during the wet phase of the scent, floating over the dead leaves note, and then the mulberry joins in -- I'm not very familiar with mulberry and only have had dried ones once, but I agree with HerbGirl's description of the berry, and I do think this is unlike any other berry I've smelled from the Lab before. Over time, this becomes less about the lemon and dead leaves and more about the mulberry backed by the dead leaves and just a hint of the lemon. While this isn't something I feel the need to grab more of, I am glad to have gotten to experience the mulberry note, and I think the scent captures the artwork perfectly.
