Avowal (Клятва)

Ok... This COVID-19 situation made me do allot of changes already & specially with my personal life! Beside that, it made me dig into some old samples i purchased long ago, some i reviewed, and others still didn't! i mean, i have had few past era curiosities like the vintage era that hit me twice, once in April 2018 & the 2nd was in Nov 2019 which made me dig in depth into their samples, then came the curiosity of Russian heritage & Russian perfumers on late 2017 when i paid a visit to one of London's perfume shops who were selling some of "Anna Zworykina's" blends, which also made me go quite crazy by purchasing quite huge amount of samples from different perfumers (ironically except for "Anna Zworykina") but didn't go through yet for (honestly) unknown reasons! maybe laziness, and maybe being comfortable that it's with me at ease! Today i am digging into some of "Nimere's" samples that i have purchased few months back that if it wasn't for "ParfummaniacC" (a fragrantica's memeber), i wouldn't have had even thought of Nimere at the first place because of a situation happened long ago with him ignoring my emails as i was asking to purchase some of his samples, and it turned to be that he is quite a nice guy, dunno why was the ignore for but it is solved already. So thank you plenty "ParfummaniacC" So as first, i'll be honored to begin with sweet "ParfummaniacC's" signature blend , hope i won't disappoint, or offend you :p Christmas seasons spices... Cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, & hints of ginger on plate made of mature vanilla. After few minutes in (3 minutes), i get hints of a worm Christmas tree branch. 5 minutes in, i get a slight of rubbery leather, like a genuine leather bracelet as the sweet spices calms down & forms a chunk of elastic leather. That was quite of a journey indeed! it begun as a Christmas worm autumn hug and settles into a soft elastic rubbery leather with a touch of harshness. Very interesting indeed and an incredible take on leather as i can sense the quality and the balancing of notes. Beautiful.
