It’s basically an analog to Drakar Noir, but with more fruit and different base notes. Otherwise, they’re almost identical. The fact that it’s discontinued isn’t a loss; owning both in the collection feels redundant.
Espartaco
I’ve never tried it, but my aunt used the women’s version years ago, and it was incredibly interesting—one of those perfumes almost no one knows, destined to die young yet possessing quality and immense personality. The women’s Cabaret was a balsamic, resinous, and opulent freshness; it sounds contradictory, but I always felt a battle between deep, earthy, slightly floral notes with a spiritual vibe against a refreshing, humid, expectorant dry-down. An underrated fragrance with substance; wherever I smell it, I know it was perfumed with this. I’d love to try the men’s version.
MIQUELEMG
An interesting perfume. More fougère than oriental, featuring very clean lavender and sandalwood. It sits in the same line as one of my favorites, Rive Gauche Pour Homme, but where that one has anise, Cabaret has pineapple. The way I use it and the sensations it gives me are what I’d expect from RGPH, perhaps with a more laid-back accent in Cabaret. For lovers of modern fougères. The Art Deco-style bottle is a masterpiece.
