Interesting. Speaking of which, Rustica to start the morning, so I could really experience the spin

Tom Buck.
If Old Paris is the smell of Passiflora, then Tom Buck is the smell of Crippled Kate's.

Hahha. Toque Absinthe for me.
First stir after sitting since last night:
The .5 hasn't changed much. Still smells like wet earth.
1% is ripening up a bit, light ammonia smell
1.5% fair amount of ammonia

Did a little homework, so I understand what your up to. Very interested in how this experiment pans out.
Almond Toast. I don't pick up any nuttiness, but I do get something woody and a little smokey. Very pleasant, not overly strong.

Santo Domingo. This one is fantastic. Nearly black, a bit coarse, but not quite as coarse as Taxi Red, or even Thor's Hammer. The dark fired scent comes through strong, very similar to the scent of ODF, my favorite smell on Earth. If only MacBaren would start making cologne and beard oil.

Onto another dark fired, Viking Brown. Even better. Less moisture, finer cut than the Santo Domingo, still plenty of DF scent. Very nice.

Wanted to mix it up, so I went with Toque Pomegranate. Nice, pleasant pom scent, along with that familiar Toque grind.

Giving Rustica super powers I am interested in the results. If Rustica can get even more potent, that would be a thing. My tolerance is up, but I don't know if I want to poke that bear (but I do). |

6 Photo Gold Rush. Whew, there is a rush. Mentholated, but again, without the menthol scent, just the sensation. Scent is more floral and banana.

I still cant figure out what the hell Gold Rush smells like. But it's nice when you really want a change up

Refreshed my nose, now for Toque Ambrosia. I almost ordered this one, and now I wish I had, it's got a fresh, fruity, sweet scent with very little burn.

Super Kailash. I take back what I said about Cheeta. This one really does smell like the DVD shops in Iraq. It is an incense scent, not sure how to describe it, but identical to one that is popular in that part of the world.

Tried the 6 Photo Special a little while ago also, similar to the Super Kailash, I think your right, Darin, Nag Champa is about right. |
