Details on Mystikum Saddles of the Silk Road

Saddles of the Silk Road takes you on a journey through time. It captures the spirit of ancient caravans crossing the desert. Created by Ralf Schwieger, this scent mixes the smell of worn leather saddles with precious goods. It is a rich woody and amber fragrance. The vibe is adventurous and warm, like a story told by a campfire on the dunes.

How does Mystikum Saddles of the Silk Road smell?

The fragrance opens with spicy saffron and earthy cypriol, joined by a touch of oud. The heart reveals a smooth leather note mixed with bitter cacao and styrax. As it dries down, it gets cozy with amber, cedarwood, and a unique walnut aroma.

Quite some attic romance

On the test strip I notice the saffron. On my skin, however, I immediately get more oud cypriol and cocoa. The patchouli additionally gives attic or classic vibes. The drydown, however, is in my opinion quite a bit warmer and slightly sweet. I might still need to grow into it.

It's fine in its category

An interesting darker leathery scent, a bit sour to me. Unfortunately nothing extraordinary. Rather masculine.
