This smush was sent to me by the generous u/J33pGuy13, as I don't have anything Lavender forward in my own den (aside from Tabac now, but I just used that Splash yesterday).
This was my first time with anything by MLS. As far as the scent goes, just straight lavender. Not just lavender, but all the lavender. I had no idea there were so many types of lavender. English lavender, spike lavender, topped lavender, and Lavadin Grosso just in this scent alone. I guess saying all the lavender is a bit of a reach. I decided to look up how many types of lavender there are. There are over 45 different species with almost 450 varieties. I was pretty surprised by that. In terms of performance, it was okay. Nothing to write home to Mom about or anything.
Not having anything Lavender forward opted to go with more florals. Enter Two Kings. Rose and Oud with a hint of spices and a dash of incense in the back. The strong combination quickly drowned out the lavender, but it was still just ever slightly present and acted as a nice compliment to the rose and oud. I've found that I really like florals (when done right). I walked away from this smelling like a garden, and Mrs. Pudding blessing in this combo.
No daily challenge for me today, as this one just isn't feasible with what I have going today.
