I've smelt this a bajillion times before. If you're gonna do Rose Oud, make it stand out, make it mean something. This is no better or worse than countless other samesy same perfumes zzzzzzz.

Headache-inducing ambroxan. Very similar to the equally horrible Eau de Citron Noir by Hermès. Lemon and ambroxan, nothing else.

Existem muitos perfumes PG que cheiram a vários produtos de limpeza, e dentro disso, ainda há alguns que cheiram especificamente a produtos de banheiro, e este é (tambores, por favor)... pastilhas de urinol! Na verdade, eu até gosto do cheiro, mas, meu Deus, eu não quero cheirar a isso. Eu só gosto quando meu banheiro cheira assim.

Não, não é fresco e brilhante, é meio opaco e turvo, não é um patchouli agradável. Acho que o almíscar é o culpado aqui, ou talvez madeira pesada demais.

Mais como figo com argila e/ou pistache do que caviar, mas o efeito geral é bastante marinho. Muito interessante e único. É talvez o meu cheiro de figo favorito. Captura e utiliza todos os aspectos do figo de forma plena, criando uma paisagem cativante e intrigante. Eu borrifo um pouco mais, e agora consigo perceber um pouco a questão do caviar. Há metal, sangue e sal se tornando quase mais proeminentes, mas tenho a impressão de que isso é um aspecto do figo, uma ilusão da nota (desculpe) ;D É uma compra às cegas da qual não me arrependo, um perfume bizarro e fascinante que talvez eu use ou não fora de casa.

I left this alone for a few months, and now I've come back to it and discovered two things: 1) despite the notes, it's better in cold weather, because, much like Cologne Indélébile, the base musks are too strong for summer, and the powerful nature of the perfume works wonfefully in the cold. 2) there is bubblegum after all. It's salty-sweet, warm and savoury. Basically, I love this perfume and can't believe I'd somewhat written it off. And it's STRONG. Go easy.

Considering this is cheaper than table wine, and considering how many are whingeing on here about performance, I actually think it's spectacular value. It's so cheap you can bathe in it, and it's the be all and end all of cologne scents to me in terms of balance, freshness and shimmer.

Another Pierre Guillaume which immediately serves me window cleaning chemicals. It's like a bad version of Lys Méditerranée.

Nauseatingly horrible. Like some mouldy old rose leaves were used to wrap up some mouldy old mackerel, then dried and turned into pot pourri. Or perhaps some prawns were left in some dishwater that was then used in a vase with some rotting roses left in it. Off doesnt even come close. I honestly think this is the most disgusting perfume I've ever smelt, I'm having a visceral reaction to it, and the seafood rot won't wash off. I've now solidified my opinion that the 90 sample set is a game of Russian Roulette where I'm at least 70% likely to hate what I smell. Lesson learnt. Today I dared revisit it again, and just like with many PG scents, at the opening I'm like "oh it's not that bad", then 2 mins later I start to get the gross, musky fish smell again. Truly awful, especially when there are so many other perfumes that do this so much better... Love Chopard for example, which is dirt cheap and wonderful.

What a wondeful composition! Spent fireworks, resinous amber, wafting smoke and delicate vanilla. It's 100% linear, but who cares. Too notch scent with perfect performance.
