Holy Carnations Batman!
This Beautiful Chypre opens with a blast of skunky adelhydes. Devastatingly Dazzling, Dizzying and Divine.
Based with a Cedar-y Sandalwood, heavy Oakmoss, the (Clove-ish} Spicy Heart together with opening Carnation had me reminiscent of the infamous Lauder Oriental, Youth Dew.
The Amber is carved in naturally, not so plodding and sweet as the Lauder. I notice a whisper of LOV that suggests a progesterone-ic green-ness.
Baby Powder in the Trail-off is, for me, always comforting.
It's greatest charm is a balance that remains to the dry without sweetness and cloy.
Recommended for those who are drawn to Spicy Chypres.
Sample from a Lanier Nip.
