Profumo Di Te

This is my first written review ever so.I apologize if it's random. If you are a millennial (elder) in the United States maybe this will be understood. In every mall growing up there was that one store that smelled like this. Like someone's basement that you would go to purchase "stuff" or hang out. The cloves, tobacco and incense that permeated the walls and into your clothes in the best way. For me, it's greatly nostalgic, and I absolutely adore it. I dont get alcohol notes as much, just a slight bit of the cognac, but I normally dont get those on my skin so might be me. The closest thing I have smelt is Heretic Midnight Toker but this is sweeter and more depth.

Listen to me you have to get this!!! It is a BEAST and a beautiful one at that. The tobacco, cognac, dried fruits and spices are just heady and intoxicating. I tried a sample before committing to a bottle and it blew me over backwards. That sample lasted me three separate uses, which for me as an over sprayer was amazing. This stuff is strong. Get it!!!!

Clove and sandalwood heavy opening, with a touch of Cardamom. Mellows down after an hour and Tonka becomes apparent. Don't get any Booziness personally. Don't find it like Tobacco Vanille at all (well, there's the clove but that's about it). If anything, the Opening to Heart reminded me a lot of SJP Stash and Intimately Beckham! Yeah I know, but there it is! Think it's the creaminess of the sandalwood they're using. Still, overall a nice frag and if you can get it with a discount it's a decent buy.

It starts off with a pleasant tea note kind of like warm earl grey tea, but then the cloves mixed with the cumin and sandalwood gave it a stale scent kind of reminded me of a small musty old cluttered esoteric shop who has incense sticks and different kinds of herbs and natural stones and always have some incense stick burning in the air.
