    I thought that Calamity was meant to be a perfume without top notes! I expect it less extreme and experimental as LesNez L’Antimatiere by Doyen. ( that I haven’t smelled yet!) But perhaps i am wrong ad I am mixing up perfumes…..
    I have smelled Santal de Mysore and it’s so wonderfull, a kind of a bit flowery version of Santal Blanc, les gourmand but very similar and very very very amazing!!!! {But my wallet starts screaming help, so I will be a bit patient the next months…..}

      Really, no top notes? I haven’t heard much about it either way. But it does have patch + amber, so doesn’t sound much like the LesNez.

    I’ve smelled Calamity J – it is pretty strange, kind of reminded me of Dans Tes Bras actually, in that it was a very synthetic smelling thing. There was some wood in the top notes, then it quickly turned into this strange synthetic thing, with not a lot of smell. I didn’t care for it.

      Thanks. That does not sound compelling.
