It’s my first Baldessarini: starts with bergamot and juniper, then turns vanilla, amber, and woody with a makeup-like touch. Reminds me of Tom Ford Noir but goes in a different direction. Good trail and longevity, especially on clothes. Got it discontinued at a great price (around $50 for 90ml). It doesn’t smell as synthetic as others say. I’m not sure if I love it or not, but it doesn’t bother me.

A friend tried it at a perfume store in Arizona and hated it: very synthetic, annoying, almost aggressive, smells cheap. Same as its counterpart Private Affairs. It seemed like they were aiming for something niche, elegant, and exclusive, but they achieved the opposite.
