  1. The projection and longevity are decent, but it smells just like in hippie shops: a saturated, not-so-clean mix of herbs and incense. To each their own.

  2. R.de Lioncourt

    An interesting perfume with a relatively original scent. It could be musky neroli or something animalic; it definitely stands out without reaching the intensity of an F. Bianchi. Maybe with higher concentration it would be a Bortnikoff, not because of its ouds, but somewhere between a Chypre du Nord and L’Heure Exquise. It’s hard to find that floral-animalic balance without tipping into sweetness or fougere. It’s neither daytime nor fresh, yet not dark either. If you like those references or work by Baruti and Rogue, give it a try. It’s not a wild bomb, but it has decent power and longevity for its price and concentration; with a bit more application, it becomes spectacular. I see it as unisex for people with character and charisma. It evokes a magnetic gothic elegance, less modern but very overwhelming.
