Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
I had doubts about the rose, but yes. Round and well-finished scent. The opening reminds me of the classic barbershop from my childhood, with that powdery, talcum-perfume vibe. The dry down is a deep, dark rose with a touch of British lord’s dispatch. Unisex. On men, it’s elegant, delicate, and a bit dandyish; on women, it’s darker and more mysterious.
I had doubts about whether I’d like this scent due to the rose, but yes. It’s a fairly round and well-finished perfume. The opening reminded me of the classic barbershop from my childhood, with that powdery, talcum-perfume in the air. The dry down is a deep, dark rose with a touch of British lord’s dispatch. It’s unisex: on men, it’s extremely elegant yet delicate and a bit dandyish, while on women, it’s darker and more mysterious.
I know the guy below is from a barbershop, but if it smells like this, it must be in India. Powerful oud opening, stable-like, reminiscent of The Night but at one-third the power. It’s the best synthetic interpretation of Indian oud I’ve tried. Some rose, becoming more floral and soapy as it dries. 10/10 for me, ridiculous price for something that perfectly mimics Indian oud.
A perfume for personal enjoyment that could be a horror for others. I bought it blind, knowing it was challenging, and I was pleasantly surprised. It has the DNA of Frederic Malle’s The Night but is more wearable thanks to the pronounced rose. Despite the dirty, animal, stable or lactic touch, it becomes friendly as it dries. Paris Corner did it again; an amazing fragrance with unbeatable value. The packaging is impeccable and opened a whole new world for me. It’s the culprit behind my obsession with oud. Anecdote: I wore it to work and a coworker said it smelled like a diaper.
I bought it to get closer to rose, a note that’s almost impossible for me to wear except in cases like Flaming Red. It delivers well for the price: synthetic, alcohol-heavy opening, synthetic oud with dirty stable nuances, sweet rose, and decent longevity. That’s this little perfume.
Well, I bought it to start getting closer to rose, a note that’s almost impossible for me to wear except in cases like Flaming Red. It delivers well for the price: it’s synthetic, with an alcohol-heavy opening and a synthetic oud trying to capture dirty, stable nuances, alongside a sweet rose and more than decent longevity. That’s this little perfume.
I won’t go into detail, but I like the perfume. On my skin, the similarity to The Night is limited to both having rose and oud. It lacks the animal character, tenacity, and longevity. The dry down does get closer to The Night, though not identical, which is logical. Still, being from the same line and at this price, it’s great and much more usable than other oud proposals, including The Night, which, despite being my favorite, I admit is for personal enjoyment and a horror for others.
