EXALTÉ

I wasn't crazy about this at first tbh, but after the second wear I could detect all the complexities within it. It's sparkling, fruity, zingy, yet soft, sweet, and creamy. I can definitely see why it could be slightly fem, but it's mainly due to the soda-like litchi at the opening, which is kind of known for being a feminine note. After that, it is 100% in the unisex territory, as it's honestly not too sweet, and since it's blended so well, it's difficult to detect the individual notes like sandalwood, musk, etc. It just feels like a smooth amalgamation, if that makes sense. Overall, this is so easy to wear yet feels so special and unique, which is very difficult to do, so I got to give huge credit to them for that. One of my favorite purchases this year hands down

I’ve tried thousands of fragrances and this one is so oddly unique. It has the fruits and citruses, with that crisp ambrette, but then it becomes so heavenly and smooth with the sandalwood and vanilla. I’m genuinely quite wowed by this, as this is innovative and not really like most things being released recently. **** 7/21 update, I love how it’s not headache inducing either, unlike other fruity frags I’ve tried. Not sure why, maybe due to a good balance of naturals/synthetics, it’s very comforting :)

Fizzy, juicy, and quite succulent (if that makes sense lol) The lychee here is quite natural smelling, like if you peeled it open and got hit with that fresh & sweet aroma Passionfruit isn’t too dominating, but I still get a little bit here Comforting and slightly creamy drydown, performance is good and nothing too nuclear, otherwise it might be super synthetic I feel great when wearing this and the quality is very apparent.

I’ve been wearing this for a week and wow it is phenomenal. It transforms from this sparkling fruity opening to a creamy, delicious musk. I can’t really think of anything similar atm, but it’s pretty stand out so far. It feels pretty unisex, as it isn’t too sweet nor sharp. Beyond good blending, I like how this is very different than other frags I’ve tried, and I’ve tried thousands of things.

Wow, this is so refreshing. It kind of reminds me of a litchi ramune soda, as the ginger here feels so fresh and sparkly, it then dries down with a vanillia-woody-musk base, which feels nice since it’s not one dimensional. Overall I’m beyond impressed with this drop, the scent profile is daring compared to other releases this year, and the presentation is nice. 9.7/10
