Ode to Aphrodite- Notes: Oakmoss, sandalwood, sage, citrus, and Possets' synthetic ambergris accord. 6 ml $20

Possests' inspiration for this scent is from Sapphos' poem to Aphrodite. It seemed apropos to feature this scent today, on the day chosen to celebrate love. Adam and I do not celebrate Valentine's Day in the sense of romanticism, however, we do celebrate it in our love for Savanna as it is her birthday. This year is a big one. She is turning 13. Our very first teenager. She is growing into a beautiful and kind and brilliant young lady. Happy birthday, Savanna!

Ok enough gushing about my oldest. Time to dive into this perfume. In the bottle it smells of light citrus with a buttery sandalwood with a touch of sparkling herbs. Brushed onto the skin the creamy sandalwood spills into rivulets, warm and lush. As the scent moves in the heart the oakmoss sharpens the woody aspects of the sandalwood and highlights some sage and herbs. There is a salty tang to this that reminds me of the sea from which Aphrodite arose. This must be the ambergris moving through the currents of the fragrance. Possets' ambergris accord is beautiful. It is smooth and velvety with nuances of plush woods and warm skin, lightly salty and with a breath of suede. This perfume is stunning and moves from a toothsome sandalwood, brimming with thick cream, to a sultry ambergris embrace.

Hope you have a wonderful day whatever you are planning. We are going to spend our evening at Disney Springs watching the Sonic the Hedgehog movie and dining in at the AMC there for Savanna's birthday.
