What's Inside:
Empecé con Tostado Azul , con una rica base de Loto Azul y Ámbar Gris Negro, y me propuse intensificar la nota de Café, convirtiéndola en el tema central. El reto fue encontrar el equilibrio: permitir que la intensidad del Café brillara sin eclipsar los demás elementos.
Para lograrlo, introduje el sándalo de Sri Lanka. A diferencia del dulzor más denso del Mysore o la cualidad más seca y balsámica del sándalo australiano, el sándalo de Sri Lanka aporta una calidez refinada, con suaves notas especiadas y delicados matices amaderados. Suaviza los matices, aportando una elegancia serena que realza en lugar de competir.
El resultado final es impresionantemente bueno: profundo, rico e inesperadamente fluido.
Notas destacadas:
Loto azul, ámbar gris negro, café, sándalo de Sri Lanka.

Now what i tell you, this is a coffee, blue lotus and ambergris scent, but it blends very well together. When you first apply it you get a strong feeling of coffee, sweet lingering coffee laying on your skin, a cozy coffee reminding of such you sit by the beach and sip. Then you got the beautiful blue lotus coming out and showing a woody and floral face, but after that we got the ambergris which really gives it a sea breeze feeling, a very nice scent overall
Far more masculine and delicate than the explosive and intoxicating Nectar Poeticus, Blue Sri Lanka is deceivingly complex and extraordinarily elegant.
This attar opens with a strong refreshing roast coffee note, which i feel is so rarely done right in naturals, but it is unexpectedly transitioned into something more akin to a cold brew paired with the cool blue vespers of oceanic brine and aquatic lotus that creates a refined ozonic (and surprisingly professional) aroma. With a lack of spices, the coffee is not a warm note. Instead it soon melts into the rest of the composition leaving the wearer with a slightly bitter, much-more-so sweet, creamy, lightly salted crystalline BLUE note that only synaesthesia can hope to describe.
As the heart notes start to become the undercurrent of the aroma, the dry down leaves you with a transition from an icy blue to a slightly purple blue smell as the ouds at the core of the blue roast base take the center stage.
Lasts well throughout the day, but longer on skin. I find it more close to skin than projecting but others tell me it's stronger.
If it must be pigeon holed- This is a datenight scent for spring and fall
The only reason this rating is not 5 stars is purely because I have to compare it to other Elkhaldis and it's more delicate, but just as beautiful as many others
