Santi Ana envisions sitting in an old, dusty barn filled with green hay whilst the sun beams through cracks in the roof and the gentle whiff of summer flowers bellows through the air. Words cannot describe how transportive this scent is. The hay is the most dominant note - it’s dry, earthy, slightly green and smells as if the real thing is right in front of you. The juicy freshness of honeysuckle and apple create that imagery of florals on a hot summers day, whilst hints of sweet propolis and sharp mint tie everything together beautifully. This scent is magical, it smells strangely nostalgic and yet I can’t place a memory to it. The quality of ingredients is phenomenal, this is pure artistry but unfortunately you simply cannot justify the insane price for a perfume is more like a memory in a bottle rather than something you’d wear regularly.
