  1. I’m a Joop fanatic and own almost the entire collection, but this is the only one that doesn’t work for me. The strawberry note never comes through, which drains the life out of it; everything else, like the pepper, juniper, amber, and cedar, smells dry and tart-sweet. What kills it is the styrax, which rarely sounds good unless it’s in Mugler’s A*men. Plus, it doesn’t last or leave a trail. Compared to the rest of the brand, I wouldn’t recommend it. It was a hit in its day, but in 2020, few would view it the same way.

The strawberry note never comes through, which drains the life out of it; everything else, like the pepper, juniper, amber, and cedar, smells dry and bittersweet.

  3. I’ve been wearing it for years, and based on the name, I expected something spice and wood-heavy, like baroque. But in reality, it smells different. The best way to compare it: it’s identical to Dantan by L’BEL and Flamboyant by Oriflame, which smell exactly the same to me. And honestly, I liked it quite a bit.

The best way to understand it is to compare: it’s identical to Dantan by L’BEL and Flamboyant by Oriflame—they’re the same fragrance to me. And honestly, I liked it quite a bit.
