Venerable Victorian Tea Rose… twisted, blackened and emboldened with wickedness.
Reminiscent of hothouse blooms on a humid night, ripe, but touched with decay. Sweet honeysuckle and jasmine with a hint of lemon and spice.
A lazy, warm deep green scent with a thick aquatic undertone: Spanish moss, evergreen and cypress with watery blue-green notes and an eddy of hothouse flowers and swamp blooms.
The greatest of all Aztec cities, and capital of their empire. Amber, hyssop, coriander, epazote, Mexican sage, prickly pear and Mexican tulip poppy.

I got this as a free imp with my purchase, which is great since I’d never have bought it myself. It smells lovely once it’s on the skin – slightly musky with a nice and not overbearing sweetness, good unisex scent – but I don’t get the same sense of “yes, this is for me” that I get with some other scents. I’m sure it will be lovely on others, though. It’ll be very interesting trying to get my fiance to try it since he doesn’t care for perfumes. 5/5

In the bottle, Kyoto reminds me a bit of NyQuil. I get all three notes distinctly, the licorice and cherry reminding me of syrup and the sandalwood giving it a medicinal quality. That said, my nose was a bit intrigued. Definitely different.
On my mom, this smelled awful – like she’d splashed on some ouzo. On my husband, the licorice and sandalwood balanced better, and Kyoto smelled pleasant but not awesome. On me I LOVE IT. The sandalwood comes out the most with traces of the anise in the background and a hint of sweetness added by the cherry blossom. Soft and exotic and gender neutral. On me it lasts 8+ hours. I will be getting a full bottle of this and would rate it a 5 except that it seems to vary so much with body chemistry. Good luck!
