To refer to January Scent Project Serin simply as an Oriental is to give it short shrift. It skews medicinal, herbal, floral and smoky by turns – which render it all the more fascinating to my nose. Despite considerable dissimilarities between the two, I feel a metaphysical connection between Serin and Santa Maria Novella’s alchemical Marescialla cologne created in 1828: some herbaceous link bordering on the precipice of wizardry, peculiarly reassuring in the manner of ancient receipts. It harkens back to another era when the materia medica (body of knowledge regarding therapeutic use of natural substances) ruled globally – from pre-Roman times until the 20th century (I smile as I ponder this, as John and I have discussed the SMN oddity with relish). Thanks to the kindness of John Biebel we have one 30 ml. bottle of January Scent Project Serin for one registered reader in the USA and three samples globally for three additional readers.
The random winner in the USA of the 30 ml bottle is McKenna. The sample winners are ozzyazziz, salem and linelle.
