it's very nice to have my whole den to choose from again
Traveling is fun, but the feeling of returning home is often such a relief.

I have a hard time with Indigo as well. Everyone else loves the scent when I wear it, but I can't help but think there's parts of the scent that I'm missing out on. Some days I think I can pick up the scent better than others.

Sorry, couldn't find anyone selling it either. I guess it was a limited release. If you do see it on the 'zara, I highly recommend

Oaken Lab's Serious Moonlight is a truly unique and unforgettable fragrance.
The scent opens with a burst of citrus and black tea, which is followed by the dominant heart of the fragrance, night jasmine and wood. It creates an almost sensual atmosphere. The base notes of Indonesian oud, vanilla, leather, and asphalt add to the complexity and intrigue.
The pillowy B16 knot created a luxurious lather from the Oaken Lab base, and the Blackbird Ti provided a phenomenally close shave with zero irritation.

Definitely falls into the dirty, clean class of scents.
