![]() ![]() Warmth, gently embracing and discreete warmth, the kind of warmth that makes your body and mind relax with ease is the first thing I feel about Montri. And yet, it feels fresh and uplifting, with a green, slightly camphorous element that keeps threading among spices and roses later on. Uplifting, in a gentle and understanding way, and I believe this is the first Dusita fragrance swaying into a spicy direction – with warm spices like Nutmeg, and Cinnamon, and a touch of a fine gourmand accord – the perfumer’s creation of a Dried Fruit Accent. Montri, a perfume dedicated to Pissara Umavijani’s late father’s (Montri Umavijani) personality, is the 13th fragrance from the brand, and one that feels poetically serene to me. And there it was, the soulful beauty of Montri by Dusita Parfums was the one that matched the word serenity in fragrant form for me! Montri, Illustration by Pissara Umavijani Then I thought about poetry (which does the trick of making me feel serene, too), and I went searching through my fragrances, touching each bottle ever so gently, spraying quite a few on my skin, and waiting for the bingo! moment. I thought about “green” perfumes, chypres, calming musks, soothing ambers, and beautiful vetivers. Lost most positively, confident that all shall be well. Then I thought about reducing the number down to the most recent releases, and adding one more prerequisite: it had to make me feel – untroubled. There are quite a few fragrances that make me feel calm and tranquil, so the most difficult part of this story was to narrow them down to one only. The state or quality of being serene, calm, or tranquil sereneness. Old Herbaceous of Scents and Sensibilities chose the word SERENITY: Oh, I enjoyed the challenge immensely! Some words sparked instant inspiration about a perfume to represent them, some were more difficult and I enjoyed the challenge. In case you’ve missed some of my previous posts, Scent Semantics was a shared one-year journey of 6 bloggers from all over the world: each month a different blogger chose a word, and we all had to pick out a single fragrance that represents it best in our opinion and share our individual choices, explanations, views, thoughts, and musings. When I received a mail from Portia a couple of weeks ago, saying that this is our last word of the month and that the Scent Semantics crew is now dissolved by our previous agreement to write on monthly basis for 12 months, I was surprised how quickly a year flew by! Already? Serenity is a great word to end this collaboration, and Montri is a great choice of perfume to wave a fragrant goodbye. This is the last posting under the name of Scent Semantics for five bloggers from all around the world: I hope you have enjoyed our choices of perfume to match different words of the month.
