Oooooo! I just received my bottle from Long Lost Perfume. I ordered it on the basis of the reviews on that firm's site plus the one posted by paloma54...hadn't ever smelled the original. I agree about the Christmasy scent...maybe a little bit fir needles and maybe a bit of bayberry? Whatever the blend is, I really like it. It IS bold--maybe even a little masculine--or at least exceptionally assertive.

I second Paloma54; the word that comes to mind immediately is "strange" -- then "deep" and "mysterious." Not a modern fragrance in any sense; idiosyncratic, complex, and not easy to grasp. Never having tried the original, I found mine at Long Lost Perfume. I do love it but have to pick my moments.

I bought my lovely, blue and brown decorated spray bottle of Bakir in my last year of college, when it was undoubtedly way too sophisticated for me!

The scent is extremely unique, very intriguing, with a special spicy greenish-resinous piquancy which makes it different than the usual oriental fragrance. There is something about it which makes me think of Christmas, although I couldn't put my finger on it. I now have a bottle made by Long Lost Perfume Company, and it's very very close to the original. Although I love this, I seldom wear it. It can be overpowering if not carefully applied, and is best suited to a grand occasion, and a very bold personality.
