I am kind of in love with it. The cumin + akigalawood makes it smell very earthy but at the same time metallic. It’s very weird and fascinating. There is a honey, apple, and lychee note combination which makes it fresh and juicy.

The only part I don’t like is the rose which shows up on the dry down and it smell boring and like nice cleaning supplies a bit.

    Got this through on my Scentbird sub this month & slipped it sideways to my wife as it's terrible on me. That cumin ain't working for me

      That okay. It definitely comes off as a “You need to try it at least once in your life but it might not wearable for everyone” type of scent.

    I love a cumin note in perfumes. This one sounds really interesting.
