I avoided this one, after a bad encounter with Jaisalmer, which made me feel as if I were suffocating. But, Zagorsk is working well on me; it combines all the complexities that the others, in the series incense, kind of miss.

Good to see I'm not alone with my love for Zagorsk and Jaisalmer-induced queasiness!

Usually people don't care for Zagorsk or are lukewarm about it, but Jaisalmer seems to be one of the most popular CdG Incenses.

Zagorsk was ok. I liked the pine forest notes but found the white snow note to be over the top synthetic and dominated too much. My fav in the series is Kyoto.

Zagorsk is incredibly evocative--though sometimes it smells a bit like green beans and starchy winter vegetables. Other times it hits me as a brisk, fresh iris/pine scent that's almost like Irish Spring. One of the most interesting scents, and I usually reserve it for winter.
