ENKHESPALOS 2010 (LE, Ode to Ares, Lupercalia): (Company says: Spear-Wielding, Elder wood, leather, blonde tobacco, and cognac.)
In bottle: Wood and tobacco, mostly, with leather support. It’s surprisingly green and yet utterly fierce. It’s a dark androgynous scent that does bring warriors to mind. Wet: The cognac is understated, but present. The leather strengthens a lot as it warms. I’m finding the elderwood fascinating. It’s just on the right side of attractive, but vicious and wild. I think it’s making the tobacco rougher and less cozy than in other tobacco scents. Dry: much gentler and sweeter than when fresh. I think the cognac gentles the tobacco and leather while the wood softens. I’m really liking it in the dry down.
