My Indian Childhood D.S. & Durga for women

I would like to say that the reason I got to try this is the lovely Doctormod:)

My Indian Childhood does not smell quite like I thought it would. Upon hearing the name, my mind immediately thought of Indian food and spices: Turmeric, Cardamom, Coriander, Cumin. This fragrance is about much more than spices, although they are there. What strikes me about D.S. and Durga fragrances is how incredibly well blended they are. I have no doubt that osmanthus, pandanus, patchouli and galbanum are all here, but I can't make them out individually. Their line of fragrances is less about 'smelling the notes' and more about 'invoking a feeling.' My Indian Childhood smells like the desert earth after it has rained, and then the sun comes out and heats everything up. While wearing this I can imagine myself walking down a dirt road in India, smelling the foods at the market, the incense, and the mixture of perfumes the other women are wearing. I LOVE IT. I wish I could describe the smell better than that, but I can't. It is unique, I haven't smelled anything like it. It wears very close to the skin, this should bother me because I am 'that woman' who oversprays because she wants everyone else to know how good she smells, but in the case of My Indian Childhood, it doesn't. This fragrance is like a well kept secret, I like that it stays close to me, I doubt others would appreciate it's brilliance anyway.
