Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
One of the most brutal incense notes I’ve ever tried. Upon opening, it’s pure animalic, only for those who love oud to the max, with a hint of pepper. As it dries, it becomes spiced wood with a very subtle trail of rose. It doesn’t smell like a subway station, but after an hour, it’s perfect. The price is insane, but it’s worth every penny.
Incredible fragrance, the most hidden gem in the collection, and it has nothing to envy from the all-powerful The Night.
