Just as the title says, I am very biased but I'll try to describe with detail why I love this perfume so much.It opens up with a spicy, dark greenness with a hint of fresh citrus. Then about 10 minutes in, one of the very few transformations of the perfume happens, and it's pretty much just losing the fresh properties and entering the real backbone of this perfume, which is a slightly resinous and coniferous, burst of green lavender with hints of jasmine and a LOT of sweet cardamom, but don't think of the overly sweet (IMO boring) cardamom in designer perfumes like La Nuit De Lhomme, this is a niched up, higher quality cardamom surrounded by a salted caramel sweetness that's still not "overly niche" to the point it becomes stanky. This is going to be the main aroma during the majority of the perfume's duration, and during this time it has a slight "oudy" vibe to it, even tho it's not declared, anyone who has smelled Haltane by PdM will know what I mean because these 2 perfumes are extremely similar. When the deeper dry-down comes out, the main aroma that remains is a woody, resinous caramel that becomes an amazing skin-scent.I find it not too formal, not too casual, I feel like this is meant to be worn while nicely dressed but not precisely for formal or business settings, I treat it as an everyday-scent but mostly for autumn-winter-spring, since I don't think it's meant for +30 Celsius degrees.
