Mandodari (มณโฑ) (2020)
by Prin

The heart of this fragrance is leather, tobacco and dark woods which gives an ancient, resinous and aged depth. Coffee and cumin spice contribute even more depth to the core, but these dark dry notes are nicely balanced with soft warm floral blend of champaca, tuberose and gardenia. Mandodari smells similar to many other Prin incensed resinous fragrances but is softened by this slightly feminine touch of smokey florals. Mandodari fragrance is named after an important Hindu character who tells her story in an ancient histoirical novel. Although champaca and tuberose are warm and prominent they blend nicely into the dry woods and earthy spice central theme. The transitions are unnoticeable with excellent blending. I rate this fragrance 3.75 of 5 stars in the Prin Lomrose collection of fragrances.
