BPAL description: The scent is of goat’s milk, ripe fig, and a hint of sweet myrrh.
Sniffed: Sour goat's milk and a bit of juicy fig, a la Carnal. Maybe a hint of dark spice? It's a little foody, but lighter in feel than I was expecting.
Wet: More fig and more spice - oh hai Clove, is that you? I also get a bit of smoky bitterness from the myrrh - this is a lot darker and less creamy on my skin. The milk is still there, but it's thin, sort of watery as well as still sour, and it reminds me of the note in Milk Moon 07.
Summary: The myrrh turns almost dusty, which is better than myrrh usualy does on me, and I think I was wrong about the clove, or it was just a phase, because I don't get it now. This is fruity intense FIG with a little sour thin milk. Not bad, but not fabulous. Fantastic throw & lasting power.
