Discussion: Deathless Notes

Happy Friday everyone! Today my discussion prompts are:

1. What are your death notes?
2. How did you realize these were death notes for you?
3. How do these impact you while navigating through the fragrance world?
4. Have you ever been proven wrong by death notes in a blend (for example, if you hate X note are there any blends where you were pleasantly surprised it worked for you?)

Some of my death notes are oakmoss, lemon, and banana. Generally they are overwhelming to my nose and make me feel somewhat nauseated, so I'm wary if I see them in a notes list. Lemon in particular has very negative scent associations for me (cleaning products futility struggling against the nastiest bodily fluid messes).

I've been proven wrong on oakmoss by Amorphous Nocturnique (Aroma palette is woody gourmand. Highlights include agarwood, dark chocolate, cinnamon, coconut, tonka, palo santo, and a touch of oakmoss). It's very well balanced, without being too sweet or too woody. It gives the impression of a genderless, witchy wood spirit who has a delicious-smelling home.
