Falling Trees
by Régime des Fleurs
Falling Trees is a refined, dry woody-aromatic scent that evokes a quiet forest trail in autumn. It opens with a crisp juniper and cypriol-tinged woodiness, gradually mellowing into a warm, resinous base of incense, benzoin, and myrrh, with a subtle hint of smoky cedar. The overall impression is of a misty woodlot after it rains—dry, earthy, and quietly poetic. The scent is highly unisex, but its quiet intensity and low sillage make it best suited for intimate wear, particularly on cool evenings or during daytime to late night seasons. The naturalistic feel is praised by many, though some find it too linear and clean—lacking the raw grit of a real forest. A delicate pencil-shavings quality and a faint, soft incense layer give it an elegant, spa-like clarity without the wateriness of citrus or synthetics. Ultimately, it's a fragrance more about atmosphere than emotion, ideal for those who appreciate minimalist woodscapes with a meditative quietude.

- +Extremely unisex with low sillage, making it suitable for worn intimacy and discreet seasonal use.
- +The drydown features a warm, abstracted resinous spine with subtle incense and pencil-shaving nuances, lending depth without chaos.
Cons
- −Limited longevity and moderate sillage may disappoint those seeking a stronger presence.
- −Some users find it too clean, synthetic, or lacking a soulful, root-bound character.
- −Slight evidence of iso e super or ambroxan dominance, which may overtake the natural wood notes for certain wearers.
