"At dawn and dusk russian forests whisper with mournful voices. An old wise druid displaced in time walks bravely through the silence. He is serving the ancient slavic Gods. His heart rumbles like thunder and is filled with tragic and terrible melancholy. He is moving toward the deeper woods where the trees lift their bony arms with stiff fingers into the evening twilight.The druid Nikolay Eremin created intense, enormously rich, emerald-green, woody and resinous start. La Foret Russe opens with swampy and mossy smell of greeny russian forest.Siberian pine is a sacred and majestic tree. The purifying pine-scent works perfectly together with addition of smoky, pungent and balsamic cypress-notes.The dramatic opening frame is equally important as the upcoming twist to the next level on the move into the wild forest vegetation.At some point in development La Foret Russe takes an elegant step towards more smokier and balsamic structure dappled with forest honey. This strong but short sweet moment vanishes in the silence of a darkened world, proud like giant shaped stone sitting alone in the moonlight.La Foret Russe possesses extraordinary strangeness and beauty to a remarkable degree. Nikolay did everything right. This creation is not trying to please. The strong heart screams, groans and shows us the greatness and mysteries of enchanted russian forests.Nikolay sent me on a lonely journey through the forests of his forefathers...I felt happy there! I was alone in a world of green!" - review by Bernardo Borsé.
