Eau de Parfum

The vibrant green at work here gives impressions of vegetal, aquatic plant life, growing on rocks in a stream. Only after dry down does the subtle combination of silex (ground stone) and gunpowder accord start to appear on a parallel path to the moving waters. The resulting composition is very casual. Grassy, earthy, watery and sharp.

“Picture the scene. It is the beginning of spring, and the world is once again going through the wonderful process of renewal. Shortly into your walk you come across a body of water, and stop to take in the beautiful fragrances

of green peppery vegetation, and the calming fresh aspect of the water. Everything is so fresh, so invigoratingly youthful, and you feel wonderfully alive, but as you take in the aroma of freshness, an immediate hint of smoky danger assaults your nostrils. Is there a fire in the distance? Is that gunpowder? You do not know, but you know one thing for sure. Your calming walk through the forest is about to get very interesting indeed.” — Rorshach1004, Fragrantica
