While it's not a hugely unique scent profile, Percival delivers a solid mix of common scents blended nicely for a solid everyday fragrance. The initial scent is very much like a fresh soap (in a really good way). When the dry down hits, you start to pick up that amber tone. It is a very nice scent. While you can likely find a similar scent profile for far cheaper, PDM just knows how to blend these notes perfectly. In my opinion, the PDM is worth it.
Not very unique but is great qual compared to a lot of similar scents. Very mass appealing and will not offend anyone. If you want to get easy into niche scents this is the safest choice.
Percival is a basic cheapie fragrance trying it’s hardest to be something luxurious, a sheep in wolfs clothing you might say. This plainly smells like overly-synthetic shower gel which is a scent profile that’s been played out to death on the designer market. Of course it smells pleasant, but the obscene amounts of ambroxan and amberwood make it smell the same as 90% of everything else on the market which you can get for a tenth of the price. I suppose there’s some hints of lavender and citrus but it is simply an ambroxan explosion unfortunately. Sorry to anyone that loves this but who is paying such ridiculous prices to smell like something that costs £10? I don’t understand it, got to be one of the worst releases from an already poor house.
