Opening is really interesting, spicy, fresh and woody and I just wanted to smell that more and more. Quite quickly it settles down and all that interesting part has disappeared and soft, powdery and a little bit herbal skin scent is left. Don’t get it wrong, what is left is beautiful. There is just a totaI chance from very strong opening to very soft drydown. I find this scent exactly how the main accords are listed and it goes in that order as well from opening to drydown which is rare. I don’t find here any booze or tobacco vibes or notes, no vanilla either. I sprayed 3 for each wrist but if you are whole day on the way prepare to have a bottle with you and re-spray a couple of times. For me poor longevity is not a problem because I like to change normally the scent 3 times during the day (home/gym/casual/evening/sleeping). This for example I wouldn’t wear at the gym but during the evening when meeting friends this would be perfect. If you like spicy notes I think this is a safe blind buy but if you don’t like I recommend to sample first.
