TELL ME ABOUT THE FOREST (YOU ONCE CALLED HOME), from Filigree & Shadow was released in 2022. The perfumer behind this creation is James Elliott. It has the top notes of Ambergris, middle notes of Juniper and Thyme, and base notes of Pine Tree and Spruce.
Tell Me About The Forest (You Once Called Home)is fir and spruce and juniper and is an immediate love. I have a huge fondness for fairy-tale forest fragrances, but so many of them are sticky, a fairy forest syrup that you measure a bar spoon into for some sort of Hansel and Gretel cocktail. This doesn’t have that treacly quality; it’s…dryer? Maybe a bit bitter. I feel like it’s a bit of a hermit-ascetic with an acerbic wit and a love of irony. It reminds me of dense, darkened thickets in the midnight woodland art of Tin Can Forest.
