Amazone

Mostly like crushed leaves and cut grass, sharp with a bitter edge. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on galbanum, cassia and neroli, moves through narcissus, hiacynth and black currant, and settles on oakmoss, vetiver and neroli.

• galbanum: intensely green resin, bitter and sappy, like a snapped plant stem
• neroli: the bright, just-squeezed side of orange blossom: green, clean and faintly bitter

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
