Dark Woods

scent families: amber, woods, green, floral, spice, moss, earth appropriate seasons: fall, winter, summer if you're hard core... top notes: pine, basil  middle notes: jasmine, spices base notes: amber, oakmoss, patchouli  smells like: A journey through a magical forest. First, it is resinous, green, and forrest-y with slightly musty, damp undertones.  Next, a rich sweetness and warmth overtake the top notes. The heart of this scent is confident, sensual, sparkling, and somewhat powdery, in the most elegant way. It's technically floral, but only slightly. The overall effect is warm, spicy, and autumnal.   A deep, woody, mossy, somewhat dirty, but smooth base is what lingers on your skin at the end of the journey. It's a forest floor strewn with decaying leaves, mystery, and magic.  strength and wear time: Strong, long wearing. Top notes will be noticeable for 10-30 minutes, middle notes for a few hours, and if you're sensitive you'll still smell the oakmoss on your skin the next day.  1
