Eau Triple Sumi Hinoki

This is absolutely gorgeous. If you can imagine being in a forrest in early winter Japan, freshly off the shower wearing Calvin Klein RTW Fall 1999, in a beautiful cypress cabin. You dress and live like the young mom in the film A.I. (2001). Elegant and simple, yet the fragrance is complex. The cold, humid, clear winds bring the whiffs of forrest, wood, and smoke that comes from a bonfire outside of the cabin. The cleanest smoke fragrance I've ever come across. Light, yet calming, cozy and like all Buly fragrances, it's very intimate. 9/10 only because it could have more longevity and not need so many sprays

This smells exactly like a blacksmith's forge.

An atmospheric perfume that capture sthe burning wood and incense. This is proably the most "Smokey" perfume I have ever sniffed, pure smoke of burning wood. The smoke is forefront but you certainly get the hinoki and resins too, a must try for those wanting something so very different and enjoy smokey scents. A wonderful creation. This is water based and performs well, the water is actually milky. A must try!

It’s October and you’re having a bonfire in the woods. You’re wrapped up warm in your woollen coat, and you’re throwing old letters and diaries into the fire. The paper crackles in the flames as you take a deep breath, inhaling the sharp tang of the smoke. You’re letting go of old experiences, old energy, you’re ready now to meet the new.

literally why do all my hinoki scents keep getting reformulated or discontinued...so glad i was able to snag a travel size sample from a brick and mortar officine buly while i was on vacation in paris. at least it will always have that special memory attached.
