I quite liked Akhetaten. I’ve been waiting to try a more floral Prin that doesn’t go dark, woody and/or sweet as many of the fragrances of his that I’ve tried lately. Now those are great, and my absolute favorite discovery from Prissana or Prin in general has been Mandarava.

A lot of the oudy ones have a smokiness and bitterness, albeit beautiful; so it’s a nice change of pace here, while keeping the similar floral richness. I get some green facets, some honeyed incense. Kind of like a much warmer and less green Tirtha, which unfortunately I didn’t like.

A more traditional jasmine and rose heart, with a warm and cozy surrounding. Not a real stand out from the house for me, but a good one for sure.
