Like the Kerouac original, On The Road is a modern travelogue classic with attitude and style to spare. The story begins with intense, smoky notes of benzoin and birch, reminiscent of the hot asphalt and grittiness of New York City. As we wind across the country, our journey takes us through the openness of the dusty cornfields of a Mid-Western America, punctuated by forays into smoky tobacco filled jazz bars, and eventually rising to the cedar forests of a Pacific Coast. The restlessness of the journey finally gives way to a bright-eyed optimism left by the fresh green fragrance of galbanum, citrus and bergamot. With this dynamic, vibrant followup to She Came To Stay, Timothy Han solidifies his reputation for smart, complex natural perfumery with literary style to spare.
