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 19 hours ago (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 19 hours ago by bheansidhe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
