I’m still learning about this fragrance, and enjoyed your discussion of these three fragrances. I own 2 others with opoponax as a base note (& didn’t even realize it! …see, you’ve got me learning!), they are: ELDO Fat Electrician & Oriza L Legrand’s Empire des Indes. Beautiful fragrances❤

What a beautiful day for filming. I honestly don't know if I have any fragrances with this note, but I think I'd like it given your description. Cheers! 🙂

First, your memes are very entertaining! Second, I really dislike typical resin heavy or incense. I tried Amouge Honour Woman and was horrified 😱😂 I tried to hang in with it, but the longevity is phenomenal, so I scrubbed it with dish soap. BUT, I am surprised Coco is included. That was my first perfume. The lotion was very nice, too.

I think I only have one with opoponax, and that's Chipmunk by Zoologist. Ooh it's gorgeous I am totally addicted, it is up there in my favourites. I find it sk hard to distinguish resins as there are such a variety of them from light, fresh and cirtrusy to dark, sweet and sticky. Elemi is one I am often able to detect but I think that's because I wore Eau des Merveilles and Lush Karma for a good while. They both have quite a lot in common notes wise although Karma came nearly a decade earlier.

Mother Nature obviously didn’t read your memo about filming that day… 😂 So windy!! Opopanax by Santa Maria Novella is my favorite. There’s usually so many resins and balsamic notes that picking out anything other than frankincense, which is so intense and lemony, is quite tricky. I highly recommend Sebastian’s video with Dana - btw, Dana works with materials in the perfume industry and is incredibly knowledgeable but also she is unhinged in the most fun way, I want to go drinking with her and talk perfumes!! 😅🎉 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o99_pNuk36ycipc.htmlsi=IprWz5ogqefBHgta

I am so confused by resins so this is helpful 😊 I feel like I probably know what this smells like now! I have tried a few 4160s now and so far, Red Queen is my favourite. I am always surprised by how much I enjoy wearing Coco too, I wouldn't have ever imagined that 4 years ago when I started YT. What language is Opopanax from? It's an interesting word.
