A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.But he grew old
This knight so bold
And o’er his heart a shadow
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow
“Shadow,” said he,
“Where can it be
This land of Eldorado?”“Over the Mountains
Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,”
The shade replied
“If you seek for Eldorado!”Copal resin incense blowing through halls of dazzling gold.

In such wise did Hermes ride upon the multitudinous waves. But when he had reached the island which lay afar, then forth from the violet sea he came to land, and went his way until he came to a great cave, wherein dwelt the fair-tressed nymph; and he found her within. A great fire was burning on the hearth, and from afar over the isle there was a fragrance of cleft cedar and juniper, as they burned; but she within was singing with a sweet voice as she went to and fro before the loom, weaving with a golden shuttle. Round about the cave grew a luxuriant wood, alder and poplar and sweet-smelling cypress, wherein birds long of wing were wont to nest, owls and falcons and sea-crows with chattering tongues, who ply their business on the sea. And right there about the hollow cave ran trailing a garden vine, in pride of its prime, richly laden with clusters. And fountains four in a row were flowing with bright water hard by one another, turned one this way, one that. And round about soft meadows of violets and parsley were blooming. There even an immortal, who chanced to come, might gaze and marvel, and delight his soul; and there the messenger Argeiphontes stood and marvelled.
Crisp sea air, kelp, and climbing vines, flame-singed cedarwood and juniper branches, cypress boughs, alder wood, violets, selino, parsley, glistritha, and white sage.

I got this as an imp and I have mixed feelings on it. It’s a nice scent, but it really does have quite a lot of jasmine in it. I was hoping the other scents would come through a little stronger, but instead they give more of a deepening effect, so that the jasmine is a little mossier, a touch earthier, but still distinctly jasmine.

On my skin this starts as a very intense and heady floral perfume, but as it settles undertones of moss begin to peek through. After a while it became a scent that reminds me of a walk in summer woods, the floral scents still strong but not overpowering, like wildflowers by the side of a forest path, but with a grounding base of earth and mosses with hints of the incense and herbs. A very subtly mystical scent, one of my favourites I’ve tried so far.

I like to call jasmine The Scent Eater. On my skin anyway, it swallows up all the other notes. When I first put this on the incense was the strongest scent. Then the jasmine ate it. Then for awhile the floral shared space with the dirt scent…and then ate it. Then the herbs came out to play…and the jasmine ate them too. All of this took under an hour and for the rest of the day I was left with a potent jasmine perfume. I gave it three stars because it really depends on your preference. If you like jasmine, give this one a try. If, like me, it’s not your favorite floral you might want to give it a miss.
