bheansidhe Report post Posted February 25 (edited) Wet, this is primarily frankincense sweetened by osmanthus, which to me always smells like young green leaf with hints of apricot or peach, and not like a white floral at all. It's surprisingly subtle and low, like the trailing waft of the New Age shop you visited earlier in the day. Resiny, not smoky. Layered with Moss & River Silt, it's a solid nod to my beloved favorite, Halloween in New Orleans. ETA: at the end of drydown it's a faint drift of incense smoke and no florals. It smells at this stage more like a nag champa note. Edited February 25 by bheansidhe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roseus Report post Posted March 15 Oh this is so pretty! Osmanthus is one of those florals that I've never been sure about, in that I struggle to know if I'm pulling it out in blends. I'm actually not getting a whole lot of frankincense out of this blend once it hits my skin. It is a gorgeous fresh fruity-floral, I agree that there is something peachy or apricot-y about it. Nectar-sweet springtime blooms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
