Paragon is a very unique scent profile, and not all for the best unfortunately. It opens straight away with a sweet and fruity plum, alongside lavender and pepper. I find the sage to be very intense and aside from the plum, the main note in this fragrance. The sage is very dry, chalky and almost powdery in a bad way. As it settles on the skin, the palo santo and sandalwood begin to emerge, however they are continued to be overpowered by this chalky sage that just doesn’t give up. I don’t detect any oud in this perfume unfortunately. If the sage wasn’t present, I imagine I would really enjoy Paragon - the plum and palo santo combination is lovely but for me the sage ruins it. This was an unsuccessful blind buy for me and I have since moved it on, disappointing.
