Morgause and Tenochtitlan

Morgause
"A bouquet of five night-blooming flowers deepened by dusky violet, purple fruits and the barest breath of medieval incenses."

Morgause is sharp, pungent, spicy and aggressive. The beginning was floral, very floral. I never caught any fruit, but there was a tangy note whispering under the heavy floral. What really came out on me was the incense. After about two hours, the incense was mellowed by the violet, luckily.

There's something very old school about Morgause. It's like a classic Chanel perfume. Granted, it's sexy and grown up, but it's not really me. Morgause is a serious perfume. I recommend it when serious facking business is going down.

Tenochtitlan
"Amber, hyssop, coriander, epazote, Mexican sage, prickly pear and Mexican tulip poppy."

Honestly, I'm not having much luck with the South American perfumes. They die very quickly on me. Unfortunately, Tenochtitlan was no different.

The little time I did get to partake in Tenochtitlan was wonderful ambery tulips. I did catch an herb note from the sage, coriander and epazote.

If this line of South American perfumes would last on me, I'd be so happy! I've enjoyed each one. Perhaps it's time to invest in a perfume pendant...
