‘As stories unfurl, behold the sun’s radiant might,
Golden realms ablaze with celestial delight,
Where the revered Naga, divine and revered,
Guardian of virtues, wisdom forever endeared.
In heavens it soars, on wings of ethereal grace,
Glistening gold scales, a celestial embrace,
Through cosmic realms, its purpose crystal clear,
Toward distant heavens, where wonders appear.’ – Siam1928

With this one I got an instant big dose of darker honey. Similar vibe to Guerlain Tobacco Honey with that medicinal tinge, even a tiny bit skanky. This is a pretty deep oud scent and one of the heavier overall compositions that I’ve smelled from Siam1928, probably the heaviest. I did enjoy it a lot, but I think I would’ve liked it even better if it was toned down a bit; it becomes quite a demanding wear (I guess in that sense, I also feel similar about Tobacco Honey).
