Hayride

This opens with a slightly boozy aroma coming from the raisins, like you can smell the fermentation of the grapes. The hay is also very strong, it’s aromatic, green, and earthy. The heart of this gets more bready and sweet with an acorn nut bread note and a warm blend of nutmeg, cocoa and cardamom. It smells like a loaf of spiced raisin bread with a hint of vanilla. The green accords in this keep it from being too gourmand though, this is very earthy. There’s a creamy tonka bean and a prominent oakmoss in the drydown with remnants of that raisin, hay, and slightly sweet breadiness. This scent is really complex and so intoxicating to smell.

3rd Sample of Pineward! i love this, my favourite out of the 4 ive tried so far! a sweet spicy fragrance thats really heavy on the raisin! ive never smelt raisin in perfume and this is seriously cool haha. its fairly linear and features a warm bread and raisin smell with a bit of nutmeg! cant smell the hay all too much but theres honey for sure; the type of honey id eat from a local beekeeper. performance is pretty decent, like 8 hours for longevity. this one is BRILLIANT.

Hay and dried fruits. And honey, they do the hay and honey thing right, this is similar to hayride, but heavier and full of dried fruit and sticky nutbutters. I feel like I can smell the horse pulling the cart in the opening, but it dries down almost gourmand. Definitely feels like a fall/winter cold weather scent.

Hay and hot cocoa. This is a strong hay and chocolate scent. Reminds me of Christmas hayrides sitting on bales of hay in a trailer tugged with a tractor around the ranch. Tasty and fun!

Honey and hay. Nothing else to my nose. All of the scents listed baffle me - I get only thick, sweet honey, and hay. I’ve been using up my Hayride sample for the past few days and the more I use it, the more I like it. It is simple and linear: honey and hay.
