Horse
by For Strange Women

Horse basically attempts to recreate the scent of a barn without all the animal refuse, and to this extent I would say it is a success. Luca Turin once mentioned that hay absolute could be a fragrance of its own because it is so multifaceted. This notion puts it on par with sandalwood. The base has a bit of vintage English Leather to it but the top isn't nearly as bright, lacking the citrus and aldehydes. The clover is a nice touch, adding a sort of Springey,sticky and sweet texture which is very subtle. I am not usually one for oil-based scents but I would call this a winning combination. if you want to smell like Samuel Smith's famous oatmeal stout in a freshly-stocked paddock I have good news for you.
