The Trained Nose

Note

Black Cardamom

Carried by 4 fragrances in this catalogue

Black Cardamom smells of warm spice and bright spice, and is most often printed in the heart.

What it is

It sits on warm spice and bright spice.
Every fragrance here is measured on the same twenty-four axes.
How loud far-carrying
It reads from across a room at ordinary strength.
How long it lasts middling
Still audible through the heart of a wearing.
