Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
If you trust amber notes, this is your fragrance. I love it exactly as is. It has everything I’m looking for: originality, a powerful sillage, and 100% orientality. It opens with a beautiful frankincense-tinged rose that fades in minutes to reveal an excellent amber and sweet woods from the blend of frankincense and benzoin. The dry down is a lingering trace of woods, amber, and patchouli. The sillage starts heavy, moderates after about half an hour, and lasts another 5 or 6 hours in that phase. After that, it sits close to the skin for another 6 hours. In two words: amber-balsamic. The only downside is that it’s hard to find; it’s not widely distributed, and I’ve only seen it on Amazon, eBay, and El Corte Inglés.
