3-D Scent

Now....some people might say to me.... Houdini...you are being negative & melodramatic AGAIN, when you say this has one of the most repugnant openings in perfume history. Yes that's right. Or when you said "...It smells like water..." I thought great I love aquatic notes, until you added "...water so fetid and stagnant you dare not venture to near for fear of contracting Legionaires or being afflicted by Cryptosporidium or something?" This is the truth though. Not a bad perfume and once this sourness has gone in the opening it's a pedestrian kind of aromatic fragrance. Elemi? sure. Leather....hmmmm...not really but if you insist. Cedar I accept is there. What could be responsible for that in the opening? Synthetic moss, in all honesty it does have that kind of mossy, lichen vibe but not nearly as interesting or faceted. I have already mentioned how I just have some prejudice towards this brand for no reason whatever, I just took against them irrationally. Truth is when we count up the ones I've liked, two it's been two bad two good, so middle of the road then. What I do like is they have a polish and a feel that the perfumers they got on board are those more classically trained types not making big Indy/niche bombs but more refined pieces. problem is they can be too refined, pretentious or boringly safe when they purport to convey new concepts. 3-D Scent is an abomination best forgotten about. An olfactory Chernobyl. The best thing to do is drill yourself a borehole deep into the earth and send this cylinder of waste, down into the depths.

[3-D Scent] ⚫️⚫️⚫️⚪️⚪️ The name is pretty uninspired. A slightly richer but very similar experience to Bottega Veneta Pour Homme. The first few seconds smell a little like dirty dish water but it soon gives way to a cold violet heart with pine and sharp elemi resin. Cedarwood and musk begin to steal the show, pushing this into a very “masculine” direction. Below are some perfumes in a similar ilk, but do it far better; Pasha de Cartier EDT Quorum - Puig Rocabar - Hermès 1828 - Histoires de Parfums
