Generally impressive, Micallef as a house have been on my radar for sometime now and I managed to get my hands on a comprehensive set of samples. This one had been recommended by a fellow fragrantican who afterwards proceeded to send me, foul and abusive messages direct to my email when I didn't respond quickly enough for his liking. This psycho behavior aside and although perhaps slightly tainting the scent before I'd even tried it. Thankfully, Emir's reputation proceeded it and I was actually really looking forward to trying it. This is a fairly dark, herbal, oud scent but I just wasn't inspired by the composition. The opening is a peppery orange, which retreats into a woody, dirt of patch and woods. It's not bad, not bad at all and certainly quality juice but left me very nonplussed. My reaction was muted when I was expecting to be blown away. Maybe I'm not getting it? but I desperately want to geranium, oud, pepper and patchouli sounds great but didn't translate for me on first inspection. Longevity was excellent and the more it dried down the better it got...one to revisit in a few months I think?
