Green "fougère" with trademark Dusita indolic skank....not sure where it's from, I could swear it's jasmine, maybe it's liatris, something I have no knowledge of. Like all Dusitas, this is strong and smells like it's composed of vibrant, humming, natural ingredients, instantly recognisable as the house style. I don't think this one is for me, but I am still blown away by the artistry.
I try to block out all the noise I hear about certain fragrances and perfumers but it's hard to consume your favourite blogs and reviewers without Pissara coming up somewhere. I was curious about the Oud and Splendiris which were both good and very different but not until I dig into the proper florals she is famed for, do I get a true impression of what Dusita perfume is about. A friend very kindly sent me a comprehensive set of the samples I hadn't tried and this one was the first I sampled and I have to say it's pretty special. I get three main elements, but this is a fragrance that twists and shimmers with different looks, moist then dry, light then dark, fragrant then almost dulled down. This is my kind of experience...a trio of vibes, spring from this one. Orange blossom/neroli, going from herbal and bitter green edged neroli material, to perfumed, waxy, citrus orange and fleshy, orange blossom type of white florals. Then bam!!! where did all this dryness come from? It smells like summer as child, straw fields and the substance of hay absolute. I also get a milky tea, it's not hugely metallic or quintessential green or black tea, at least the way it's conventionally used in fresher fair. None of which is listed in the notes here!!! haha (Apart from the hay) Okay so... Lilly of the valley is likely giving all the white floral effect, there's gotta be some citrus even if it's not that pronounced? The hay is very strong and obvious in the heart. The clary sage/petrigrain and moss, account for the bitter herbal edge, and perhaps the tea effect too? Vanilla could be the milk in the tea and sweetness lend more sweetness with the hay? Very interesting stuff and superb quality and clarity of concept. As much of a contrarian as I like to think I am I have to admit that Pissara's sorcery is very really and I think it's working on me?
You're on a hayride through a dry late spring meadow and someone ahead lit a cigarette and you caught a whiff downwind. What makes this scent so special is the addition of a light dusting of vanilla, the choice of florals, on a dry hay accord. For under $100 it's an amazing buy and I own nothing like Erawan in my collection.
Stoked to try Issara and Anamcara next from Dusita
