Adam Michael has this to say “Whilst I have never agreed completely with textbooks as to the aromatic descriptors for how Mitti Attar (Petrichor) actually smells, I do think the end result is truly divine, heavenly and simply put, spiritually enriching. I am happy at long last to have a batch in our offering. The lengthy process to produce Mitti Attar is ultimately – hydro distilling baked clay (Indian) into Indian sandalwood (Mysore).
I would describe the aroma of Mitti Attar (Petrichor) – and especially this batch – as a combination of balsamic woods, dry decaying woods, non-offensive animalic tonalities, baked breads just out of the oven, spiced cream milky, lightly spiced Middle Eastern foody, incense woody, rice creamy, with some petrichor after the rain tonalities – more in the form of wet gravel and stones. Other notes include, aged leather, hay, tobacco, ash, cigar, musty leaves qualities – think geranium leaves and stems in the late season, dry velvet floral textured undertones, clay, mulch and nutty themes that really sing and pop. And of course as Mysore sandalwood is used here, the aroma of epic Indian sandalwood is very evident and persistent throughout here as well. All of this together, all of these layers unravelling over days on the strip, makes for a truly indulgent, full bodied blissful aromatic. Highly recommended.”

This Mitti attar of superb quality – from its zesty enchanting opening to exquisitie drydown – is rare, gorgeous in every aspect –
wild, pristine and earthly, intimate and diffusive, raw and yet refined, simple while strikingly deep, chest-opening and heart-lightening, one of the most atmospheric aroma-materials there is – to my aesthetic perception;
this ‘Elemental’ is like a mythical gentle titan, adorned in black Gold and furry Silver – an embodiment of the Force of Nature – the fertility, the complexity and the beauty of Mother-Earth herself, soothing and invigorating at the same time. I hold Mitti as one of the more intriguing ‘naturalizers’ for green and floral accords. Thank you Adam and Eleonora (with compliments to the craftsman) for this beauty!

One of the most interesting aromatic we ever smelled.
Its ‘wow’ effect, quite rare for that kind of profile, is systematic. It rivals vetiver for its grounding properties and the sandalwood base is of high quality.
A must-have !
