BRIMSTONE: (Company says: In Hermetic alchemy, brimstone is one of the Three Heavenly Substances, one of the primary alchemical Principles. It represents the strength of will and the vigor of passion, and it is a symbol of the process of fermentation. A smoky, gritty blend, husky and gray.)
Wow! They aren't kidding about the grittiness, the smoke, or the husks. It also smell aquatic and faintly ozoney. It is a cousin to JEZIRAT AL TENNYN, only vastly more pleasing. This is what I wanted JEZIRAT AL TENNYN to smell like, but it didn't. It smells like a storm coming over brushfire country, the dry heat of flame about to be quenched by the laden air. Not an easy scent or one for every day, but exciting. It wears long too, lingering on, mellowed and smelling a little like aftermath. I love that about it. This would have been a winner if at around the four hour point it didn't degenerate into almost all patchouli until I was forced to wash it off. My disappointment is huge as I loved this stuff. Also, allergic to it. Ugh.
