Winter in Manaslu

This is the final of the 4 seasonal fragrances from Hima Jomo i've sampled. And i love them all. Winter in Manaslu does in fact smell like winter. It's cold without smelling just peppermint (although it does smell strongly of peppermint). It also smells strongly of pine and cypress, with cedar and basil beneath. I can't smell the star anis or sandalwood, but the scent has a creaminess to it, which sandalwood probably contributes to. spring, summer and fall, day or night, casual to semi formal. Unisex and for any age. Longevity on my skin with notable+ projection is 6+ hours. Personal score: 9.25/10. I really love this series of seasonal fragrances from Hima Jomo. I've been very impressed, and i'll be looking to have all 4 in my collection in the not too distant future.

IN LOVE! The way my nerves settled immediately upon first spray was shocking. Growing up in the Rocky Mountains, this is absolutely a chilly, cold, pine-y scent that brought me right back to my childhood shivering in -40 weather. An aromatic blast that warms up to juniper bushes, far away wood being chopped. It doesn't last very long and the sillage is definitely personal-space but while I was out I kept smelling it on myself. Green and fresh and minty, not at all toothpaste or gum. A very faint static, ionized smell hangs around that reminds me of wool scarves.

This is embodiment of crisp, cold wintry breeze. fresh but gives you a little chill too. i can almost hear winter breeze in my ears when sniffing this. now, with the scent: fresh mint and pine combo that really freshen me up! just like cold breeze in the mountain. as the top notes left my skin, it gets more woody closer to skin. a little creamy sandalwood makes it more and more comfortable towards the end. of all 4 hima jomo vials i've tried & tested, this one was my favorite. exceptional.

This has to be the most realistic peppermint I've ever smelt in perfumery ohh wow. this is amazing Edit: This fragrance is phenomenal. Bought a full bottle after getting a sample for buying a perfume. Sharp, cold, mint, absolutely transports me to the mountains, where the air is thin, but clear. So comforting, fairly long lasting, absolute masterpiece! Currently layering it with Reliqvia and it just creates a mystical smell.

Opens very green, herbal and fresh Lots of mint and sage, accompanied by cypress The aromaticness is toned down by the pine and woody notes It's soft and almost creamy The aromaticness represents the cold winter atmosphere well
