Steamed Rainbow
Steamed Rainbow by DS & Durga is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with mandarin, sweet orange and elemi, moves into cedarwood, almond blossom and cut grass and dries down to violet and vetiver. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
Heart
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Almond Blossom Soft floral with a marzipan edge. Sweet but not gourmand.
- Cut Grass Exactly what it says. Sharp, wet and nostalgic.
Dry-down
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
