\nThe first Mod (trial, version) of my Holy Grail has arrived! Below is my reaction \/ message to Clement:<\/p>\n

Dear Clement,
\n\u00a0
\nI am so very excited to receive my first \u201cMod\u201d! Thank you so much once again for agreeing to make my very own Holy Grail. I have never had a perfume done especially for me before and I find it difficult to review something that was so kindly created for me and even harder to actually criticize. It feels awkward to say the least.
\n\u00a0
\nI want to start by saying that I think my first Mod, “Holy Grail R1\/A” is a very pretty scent. It smells feminine and light, almost ethereal. I also smell a lot of almond here. Perhaps my nose is playing tricks on me and there is no almond there? It is not one of my favorite notes and, unless it is crucial for the composition, I would prefer not to include it. If I had to describe how the scent smells right now, I would say it smells of almond, light vanilla and a little bit of musk. It reminds me of scents like Castelbajac, Lea St Barth and Strenesse. In my opinion, these are light, somewhat fresh, \u201ccool\u201d scents. I would like my fragrance to be quite a bit heavier, more \u201csubstantial\u201d, much \u201cwarmer\u201d, much spicier and much \u201cdarker\u201d than it is now.\u00a0 I wonder if what I am saying actually makes any sense and I apologize if it doesn\u2019t.
\n\u00a0
\nTo sum it up, I would like the scent to become heavier and spicier. More sultry, more sensual. I would like the musk note to be less transparent than it is now, in fact I would love for it to become \u201cdirtier\u201d, more animalic. A more pronounced cardamom note would also make me very happy as would an addition of a warmer, more robust woody note and some amber.
\n\u00a0
\nI would love to hear from you regarding the scent, the first Mod and my ramblings about them.
\n\u00a0
\nBestest of wishes,
\n\u00a0
\nMarina.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
