BONY MOON 2009 (LE, Lunacy): (Company says: In the stark darkness of February, food is so scarce that some are forced to chew bones and make marrow soup for nourishment. It is a time when we honor our ancestors with fasting, solemn ritual, and reflection on the triumphs and accomplishments of those who have passed before us. White sandalwood, dry cedar, and radiant, crisp lunar herbs.)
In bottle: I am surprised there is no palm or cream in this. It’s startlingly rich, dry, yet creamy. I’m already being seduced by its cedar. Wet: The sandalwood and cedar strengthen, yet it retains its creamy faintly sweet affect. The herbs are gentle and complex, beautifully supporting the wood. I’ve never smelled anything quite like this and it intrigues me. Dry: It goes papery after a while, though retains the creaminess. It really fits the concept beautifully.
