Scent Name: Silver Fir
Manufacturer: Astrid Perfumes, formerly Blooddrop – 2019
Scent Description and Notes: “Silver Fir (and some neighboring white spruce) blended my Frost accord, which is a delicate breathy note of confectioner’s sugar and light peppermint. My goal for these single notes was to truly create an aspect of iridescent frost over the main note, not something hard and icy.“ – https://indiescentlibrary.com/astrid-perfume/frosted-single-notes/frosted-silver-fir/
Oil Color: The color of peach syrup poured straight from the can.
Bottle Design and Artwork: This is a 1/32 imp decant from Ajevie. The label features the decanting company name across the font in large burgundy and purple font. The back of the label has the company name and scent notes in small black font, while the name of the scent is above that in larger stylized black font. The bottle appears as follows:
Scent:
- ITI: Mentholated peppermint with a chilled fir breeze. The chill is slightly sweet, vanillic and buoyant, akin to a vanilla/peppermint whipped sugar scrub blend from Isle of Eden back in 2008 or 2009.
- Wet: Oh, this is lovely! I’m getting a peppermint creamy tone subtly sparkling with specks of iridescent sugar and a chill of silver fir carried softly on an evening breeze. I need to see how this dries, but I’m smitten so far. I love beautiful takes on camphorwood pines and snowy, sparkling mints. This one is beautifully soft and mellowed with the creamy sugar tone.
- Dry: I was sniffing this around the 4-5 hour mark and I noticed that this was a frosted gourmand (bordering on caramel almost), sugary sweet and mouth watering with just a suggestion of peppermint candy at the back. Very pleasant. I’ll add this to my rotation until I run out.
Other Impressions: [Wet] “Peach cream and artificial banana, but it’s the banana in the Runts banana.” -Tony
“*Eyes wide.* I like this one! *bouncing up and down in his seat.* It’s very exciting!” -Student
