zankoku_zen Report post Posted September 9, 2018 Supernaturally smug, draconically self-satisfied: red currant, persimmon, and oudh. Bitter citrus, and something that smells darkly musk and perfumey. It actually smells bitter, and kinda manly on me. Good throw and wear length. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReallyZeb Report post Posted September 28, 2018 When wet it's a strong, bright and fruity oil, nothing much else. Once it dries it's still beautifully fruity, but not at all sweet. There's a distant incensey back note, like you just walked past a hippy shop with their door closed, and that works to round the scent out but the overall impression is glorious red fruit. I don't get a bitter note at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LavenderCoffee Report post Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) I was excited to try this because I don't see (or smell) persimmon very often - it seems like an appropriate choice for a dragon! On my skin the fruit is bright but slightly tart and bitter, almost reminiscent of bergamot, and I'm getting more of a wood type of vibe from this oudh. Once it dries it is more subtle than I anticipated. It's so close to working for me, but I think it could be stunning on the right person.
