Not unwholesome, but not something I would anticipate in a fragrance. It could very well be one of the most unique scents in the line. When it comes to scents, unique and memorable are good qualities to have.To illustrate how unique it is, this scent reminds me of an old sewing kit that my mother had, when I was a preschooler and she did alterations. There was a fabric ball filled with tiny beads, most likely resin, that was made to store needles. It was fragrant and I liked to just push needles into it. When I smell this I can clearly picture the sewing ball and its satin fabric. That was about 25 years ago.Mage smells to me like resin, fragrant preservative, and dried herbs. It smells like a wizard's laboratory or a spell component pouch (thankfully, sans guano). It's mysterious and dangerous, in a way that suggests a world others are not privy to. It's a powerful and projecting scent, but on my skin it doesn't last very long at all. It begins to fade about an hour after drying, and two hours later it's all but gone, you would have to be intimately close to even detect it. You may have better luck putting this scent on a cotton ball or tissue or something.Of the scents so far, Mage seems to be lacking something. I think it would benefit best from layering with a race or alignment fragrance, so I'm going to try this one again with a race fragrance at a later date. Unfortunately, I didn't pick up any of the alignment fragrances, none of them really grabbed me.</blockquote>
