What was the most memorable thing about this scent?
I can sense and feel that hay absolute would bring a wonderful sort of groundedness to an accord. That it has within it a milky quality and that it expresses summer so beautifully. It was only when I was done recording that I remembered being in a sauna in Merano, in the Tirol region in the north of Italy and my husband had to drag me out of there because they had placed piles of hay on the heat vents and this somehow just amplified the sense of relaxation!
What were some of the things that put me off or intrigued me about this scent?
I was intrigued by how short-lived this scent is
