Iron Shunga Death Match 5
Lovers in a Carp Steamer
Cranberry, thyme, teakwood, mint, cedar, tobacco flower, and red currant.
Surprisingly fresh, with neither the cranberry nor thyme overwhelming (though fairly sharp in the imp) and just a hint of mint for coolness. The woods come up with a hint of spice as it dries and I'm finding it enticing; I keep sniffy my wrist with a fervour usually reserved for more foody scents.
VS
Konseishin the Penis God
Apple blossom, champaca, fir needle, cistus, myrrh, Peru balsam, and Tan Xiang.
Harsh resin-sap in the imp, but fades down quickly. The apple is MIA; this is mostly fir and myrrh with a hint of balsam. It reminds me of Faunalia without the musk and while I quite like it, I think I need to do some side-by-side comparisons to decide if I need both.
WINNER: Lovers in a Carp Steamer. This fades quickly but I love the woods on drydown.
