Legend of Mysore

Eagerly awaited this to arrive. Wasn’t let down one bit. Being one of the first hundred to purchase this beauty I received a small sample of the sandalwood oil used in creating this fragrance. Phenomenal, the oil is precious. The fragrance itself is great and made of really high quality ingredients and oils. If you’re a fan of Tam Dao or Eau Duelle, this is a good one too sample. This a gem, worth every penny. Don’t expect crazy performance, fragrances with high naturals tend be more intimate and this indeed is an intimate fragrance but it performs just fine. The scent is heavenly, the blending and quality is done so well. If you’re a fan of sandalwood, you owe it to yourself to get your nose on this.

I love this. I clock it as something between Babylon (vanilla, saffron, coriander) and FM Dries Van Noten (same note reference as above, but more sandalwood than Babylon). This replaces the cloves with ginger (a beautiful ginger that’s warm spicy - not citrus tart), not that much saffron, and is not heavy. In other words for any season. If you love woody gourmands or miss FM DVN I think it’s worth sampling!
