Desert Wood

This is a beautiful fragrance. One of my TOP. The best woody scent I've ever smelled. On opening it is slightly spicy thanks to the pepper and ginger, but it lasts only a short time. Very soon the scent turns into a wonderfully smooth, creamy, slightly smoky wood scent. The combination of nutmeg, saffron, sandalwood with a bit of incense is fantastic. Very smooth, soothing and mysterious. It's not killed by the chemical lemon like a lot of other woody scents. I have to constantly smell my hand :-) unfortunately it's a limited edition and apparently can't be bought anymore. I found it at a local store and bought the last 3 bottles. When it's gone, I'm going to miss it a lot. I can't smell any other scent that is similar

Truely deep fragrance, inspiring and mysterious. In my opinion, this Novellista perfume fulfills its function the best: evokes a stories. Nutmeg and pepper start with spicy opening, which walk smoothly to incense and saffron. Chilli adds a subtle but piquant punch to the aligned aroma. The fragrance is tasty enough, but with santal, it is even more. The base is grand and sophisticated. Comforting, elegant, dainty. I am truely enchanted. Novellista is usually avarage for me, but this is far more than an ordinary: Desert wood is masterful. --- Projection is not strong, fits velvety to the skin. Longevity about 5 hours.

This one reminds me of a rainy, cold day in the forest near a house with fireplace. Dark, mysterious, woody and with a prominent incense note. Somehow this scent relaxes me, it's deep, spicy and heavy as a scent. Definitely not a blind buy and more suitable for men. I wouldn't go for a full bottle because it's hard for me to pull this off.

This perfume is actually so incredible. It's actually so unique I've never tried anything like and I feel like it's the best novellista fragrance. Unfortunately it is only limited edition and for the longest time I couldn't get a bottle. Thankfully they brought it back shortly and I finally got myself a full bottle.

Smokey goodness in a bottle that serves you a deep incense scent almost touching the dark side of the tar. Then it opens up the balsamic and leathery notes. I really dig this juice. The only downside is its longevity, powerful at first but lasts only about 4h.
