Jenjin Report post Posted February 27 Putrefaction, the veil of decay. A yellowing shroud of raw-edged Muga silk, banana-spotted with chunks of fermented fig and exuding rich, earthy puffs of mushroom dust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bheansidhe Report post Posted April 3 (edited) For those of you wondering "What the hell...?", I am here to reassure you: yes, this perfume is wearable. On first application, it's a banana perfume. The banana part lasts for about fifteen minutes on my skin, and then becomes a softer, vanilla wafer-coded sweetness. But first, last, and always, this is a "silk" perfume. Have you ever smelled raw silk fabric? It's a little musty and dusty - but not in an unpleasant way! - more like in a "furry to my nose" way. This smells like the occlusive dustiness of silk fabric, plus the fig fruit (I'm not sure why this is a "fermented" fig - it doesn't smell alcoholic to me). The "mushroom dust" adds a slightly salty umami note, like miso paste. I'm just baffled at how much this smells like a bolt of raw silk noil, but in a pretty way. TL;dr weird, but wearable! The far drydown is "a slightly spicy, seductive skin musk." Edited April 3 by bheansidhe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
