Argentic

This is my first review so bare with me. This may have to be my absolute favorite blind buy. It is a true hidden gem and it is a shame that it's not talked about more. Upon first sniff the color green bursts to mind and stays throughout the life of this scent. There is a freshness reminiscent to the squeezing of a juicy lime. The musk that arrives helps keep that fresh zest around and somehow makes you more aware of GREEN. The story it tells from the opening to the final wisps of its skin scent stage is mesmerizingly beautiful. The quality of the blend is outstanding, especially given the price it can be found at at discounters (at the time of this article, you can have this with full presentation for under $60). Presentation: The bottle stands out even when placed next to my high-end niche perfumes. It is a piece of art for all intents and purposes. Along with the box it arrives in, Argentic brings to mind the opulent rococo styles of 18th century Europe where one can almost see Mary Antoinette passing this bottle among her courtiers. The sprayer is hands down the best I've ever used. And this is in comparison to Parfum De Marly and Dior, which had the best sprayers up until this point. It shoots out a wide layer of fine mist that coats everything it comes in contact with. Another plus is that you can control how much of each spay you want per press. Final Thoughts: Quality, quality, quality. This has become a staple in my collection, easy to wear to all occasions and any season (day or night). A unique and beautiful scent with great projection and silage. Do yourself a favor and get this as soon as possible.

Argentic is a strange fragrance; extremely unique, very interesting, highly artistic, scarred but beautifully handsome, intelligent and bat-shit crazy at the same time. To me, it is definitely more masculine but I have only sampled this one briefly. However, my bottle arrived yesterday so I'll be wearing it in the coming days. Offhand, there are some strong elements in Argentic that evoke emotions of deep love and/or deep hate . Moreover, it does have a Comme des Garcons type feel and, perhaps, even briefly reminded me of Comme des Garcons (Pharrell Williams) Girl. I'll update/provide a full reviews once I have spent a few days with Argentic. Defintely lots of pepper, woods and balsamic tones. Okay, after spending some more time with this my overall option has not changed, but I do like it more and more with every wearing. I've heard others mention they detected an incense vibe. While I do picked-up on a strong pepper note with balsamic and resinous nuances, it doesn't particular strike me as being an incense fragrance. Still, it's a very nice and unique fragrance.

The box and presentation is beautiful. Open the box and spray it on my arm. My first sniff is disastrous. Headache and Nauseatic. A turpentinish metalic smell that overflown the space. It's like a cheap lemon car air freshner. Funny thing is, my wife kinda love it. I think woman like the smell of it. Then.... interesting happen after 30~40 minutes. The heart notes appears. A spice soft wood combine with white flower. It's kinda clean smell actually. Then the drydown is really invigorating. The insence plus the wood note appear. I couldnt stop sniffing it. It's like, a new fresh printed bank notes....in a good way. The downside is it sits only for 4 to 6 hours. Overall It's an artisanal and complex perfume.

Cool! Never been the first to review something. Argentic is a big love for me - but I like weird stuff. To me, this has a nail polish remover smell - I think this has something to do with the lime/cedar/musk notes. With that said - it's not overwhelming - it doesn't seem to stray too far away from my skin. This is a 10/10 for uniqueness and I appreciate it for what it is. Although light, I can see something like this being associated with comme des garçons. Great stuff - buying a bottle! 7/10

I believe this may be discontinued, which is a true tragedy. This is a stunning spicy woody composition. It’s quite potent in the opening (mayhaps even a tad screechy). But it does last, and it’s a smooth wood, infused with lively spices and turpentine. The bottle is a work of art, and I look forward to trying more from this house.
