Sådanne Slumberhouse

Source: Luckyscent

My boss just told me I smell like a Yankee candle and that he won't mind smelling like one too. It does smell like an upmarket candle, one that has forest fruits in its name and comes either purple or red usually. Considering I applied a little from a Luckyscent dab sample to my right forearm, I would say the projection is pretty damn good. 

I have mentally placed Sådanne in the same broad catergory as Tauer's 10 Une Rose Vermeille and Parfumerie Generale's PG13 Brulure de Rose. Fruity roses that smell like real roses and real fruit. As opposed to car air-fresheners posing as perfumes. 

Like the Tauer and PG, Sådanne is more than just a fruity rose. Syrupy sweet fruit-bushels of ripe blackberries, strawberries, raspberries some more berries, possibly a fuzzy peach or two and of course bunches of roses. The general effect is similar to drinking a thick dessert wine like Inniskillin or another ice wine. In stark contrast to the nectar, there is a heavy leather that combats the dessert for attention. As if watching the swordplay in saber fencing, the leather and sweet notes perform a repertoire of lunges and parrys so fluid it is more a dance than merely tactical maneuvering. Weaving everything together are warm resins and dark woody notes and there you have Sådanne. 

Sådanne could also have been named Rose Rebelle or Whips and Roses or Good Girl Gone Bad, yes I know these names have already been taken but just to give a clearer picture of what Sådanne is like.
