The Secret Temptation

The immediate first impression I got from Secret Temptation is a cross between the fizzy vanillic sweetness of Calvin Klein Obsessed and the fruity warmth of Baldessarini Ambre. Loads of sweetened ISO-e and a lightly fruity pink peppercorn dominate this one from start to finish. There is a distinct and lasting sweetness to Secret Temptation offset by a very slight bitter, herbaceous accord - though not offset enough in my opinion. In this regard, I think ST would easily qualify as unisex, though leaning ever so gently in the masculine direction. Secret Temptation is very pleasant and wearable, and actually performs well in terms of both longevity and sillage. Worthy of a bottle buy at this cost IMHO. I think ST is perfectly suited for layering with any sort of leather/woodsy fragrance that you might find too dry and in need of just a pinch of vanillic sweetness. To date, I've had great success layering either with the dry woodsy Bentley Absolute or something incense heavy like Casbah or Cardinal. It's like adding just a dash of sugar to enhance (and extend) what is already there.

I just got a bottle of Zadig and Voltaire's Just Rock and because of the obvious intersection of notes, I felt compelled to add to my previous comments on Secret Temptation in light of this new discovery... Secret Temptation is warm, woodsy in an ISO-e, sparkling kind of way, lightly sweet and joyously vanillic, all without being overly cloying. Pink peppercorn dominates from the opening and brings brightness and a soft not-so-fruity-fruitiness that I really appreciate. Truly wonderful stuff for the stupendously low price tag. Literally one of the very best value to price fragrances out there, IMO. What about Just Rock? I'll tell you. Take away the pink peppercorn of Secret Temptation and add a deeper vanilla with amber and a dry sandalwood-like accord, and you get Just Rock. They feel related - as though this could be your daytime dumb reach, while Just Rock is that date night secret weapon in your fragrance arsenal. They also layer amazingly. If you like one, you will more than likely enjoy the other.

Eu amo esse perfume, comprei ele logo antes de conhecer minha mulher. Meu grande problema com ele é a fixação, pois a projeção dele é boa e seu cheiro é incrível, um dos mais harmoniosos e vivos que senti em um perfume, porém ele some em questão de 3 a 4 horas, e se você quer algum tempo maior deve exagerar mais nas borrifadas. talvez eu tenha utilizado ele em um clima errado? talvez. De todo modo, tenho tudo o que agradecer este perfume, ele foi o meu primeiro perfume comprado, tenho boas memórias com ele devido a eu ter utilizado ele no começo de meu relacionamento de amizade ao namoro com minha mulher, e me abriu as portas para querer ter e utilizar outras fragrâncias. Tenho ainda meu primeiro frasco, mesmo que em pouca quantidade hoje em dia, e compraria um perfume com o exato mesmo cheiro se houvesse uma versão mais potente. Um ótimo e memorável perfume, certamente comprarei um outro frasco futuramente, mesmo que para utilização casual, ou ao lado da mulher que tanto amo.

its a sweet surprize from AB, I liked the bottle a lot , coz red i my favorite color, so i tried it one day. i recall it similar to the vibes of hot water by davidoff and also givenchy xeryus rouge, but i tried it few more times, i felt there is a spicy and cardamom popping, and i was gonna buy a 200ml of it, sadly 200ml was sold out, and I ended up buying the 100ml. very nice fragrance, for the price you actually a very good quality frag, after blue and black seduction, i am digging this. good for evening time. lil bit boozy red cocktail/shots vibe. with vanilla and pink pepper. lasts 4/5 hours on me, not a beast but good projection for 2 hours. the best so far in this line. will review it soon on channel. no review in English 8.5/10
