Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Desert Eden left me with a mystical scent, as if I’d stepped into a magic ritual I often practice. Sniffing it blindly, I saw it carries sandalwood and frankincense—my usual ingredients—so my intuition hit the nail on the bollocks. Mind you, it doesn’t just smell like witchcraft; it has that essence but is sweet, rich, and super feminine. I felt utterly bespoke, as if it were made for me. It’s a magical fragrance, ideal for those of us who love the occult. I absolutely adore it. The longevity is enormous, at least eight hours, with moderate to heavy sillage. I use three sprays: one on each side of the neck and another on the chest. The opening is strong. It’s a unique aroma; I’ve never heard it on anyone else, so if you’re looking for something off-the-beaten-track, this is your option. But don’t buy it blindly: it’s potent, better to test it first.
I woke up to Desert Eden feeling an air of mysticism, as if I’d taken part in one of my magic rituals. I tried it blindly and, upon seeing the notes of sandalwood and frankincense, confirmed they were my usual elements, so my perception was spot on. But mind you, it doesn’t just smell like a ritual; it has that essence but is sweet, rich, and ultra feminine. I felt super identified with it, as if it had been made for me.

This is the only one from the 2021 new collection, which I believe has around eight or nine perfumes. It smells woody, spiced, and warm, yet soft. You can definitely detect the frankincense on my skin. It’s gentle, without a massive sillage, but lasts for ages. I liked it, although to be honest, it’s far too expensive.
