eo01

I've tried just about all the unisex scents for the biehl parfumkunstwerke line. This one is in my top 3 picks for this house. This reminds me of Dam Tao by Diptyque but less dry and more sweet, probably because of the coconut and stryax that EO01 offers. Both Tam Dao and EO01 have the same Brazilian rosewood and sandalwood which gives it almost the same woody character in the base. I don't get the citrus in this at all. To my nose I get a sweet, powdery, woody composition. This stuff can bat well for either team, man or woman. I'd say a woman can wear this all day, everyday. A man could probably do the same but I would suggest layering it with something else if going out to the pubs or clubs. I personally think EO01 (Egon Oelkers) layered with GS03 (Geza Schoen) is a killer-combo a little Egon/Geza remix, if you will. My advice to the wearer of this juice is to wear it plain during the day (women) or layer it during the evening (men). I think this could be a year-round scent. The coconut makes this a good spring/summer choice and the sandalwood makes it a good fall/winter choice. *Longevity 5/10 I think it gets very light and close to the skin after 5 hours. *Projection 6/10 When you first put this on it will notify the room but after the first 3 hours it quiets down *Hot or cold weather, all day, layered evening

This was a blind buy, which I think is a first for me for any bottle over $20. The deal is, I fell for vintage Organza Indecence after buying a small bottle with a few ml left. The one and only time I've asked that a stranger tell me what perfume she was wearing, it was Organza Indecence. And that was after it was discontinued/changed. When I saw this on a discount site (a Canadian one if you're looking) for $60 it was irresistible. I'm stunned how similar the two are. I don't think I've ever smelled any two perfumes that were closer in scent in every part of the trajectory. In the first five minutes, there's more cinnamon and spice in Biehl eo01. The drydown is where it gets crazy. I realize that I was hoping for something very similar to O.I. but without what, to me, is a certain scratchy quality in the base when sniffed up close after the first hour or two. But the biehl has exactly that same scratchiness. I wish I knew what it was or could describe it better. The bottle of this one is beautiful to me. I'm not into frilly things, like the O.I. bottle, and the biehl is an amazingly solid chunk of nicely honed glass. Puts my little Guerlain bottles to shame. Would make a great weapon in a pinch.

The name is a little off-putting, since the word “kunst” has connotations of “synthetic” as well as “art”, so I was a little apprehensive when sampling this, making sure I was alone in the house in case the worst happened. I was expecting something full of weird aldehydes or worse, but no, it’s not in the least “kunstlich” or offensive. This starts out as a yin-yang fragrance, with both the spicy and the sweet, each dancing alone in a different corner. This phase is absolutely gorgeous. I like the shimmering separateness of the two streams, which eventually unite in a sweet tonka/vanilla-rich oriental with a prominent sandalwood base. It’s a modern perfume that seems classic, well-blended and complex. The sillage is good but not overpowering. The scent lasts about 8-10 hours. This could be yet another one of those perfumes that I could wear on a regular basis, for just about any occasion, a “default” that I put on when I don’t want to think. Oh no! - Am I going to need another decant?

Eo01 is really a delicious perfume! It is like smelling a custard. Very sweet, vanilla, benzoin, cinnamon, coconut, tonka beat... With loads of sandalwood , spices and flowers. It is not very intense so It is good for almost everytime and season. The only thing is that i wouldnt use It for very formal eventos. I find It totally unisex and the performance is moderate. Good longevity (6-8hours) with a very moderate projection Scent: 9.5 Longevity: 7 Sillage: 6 Quality/price: 5 Versatility: 8 Originality: 9 Global: 9

Pure comfort, cottony vanilla amber with a rigorous maintien. Like a senior military officer slumped in a Napoleon III sofa, charming blend of neo-baroque debauchery and uniform presence. Perfect for a well-dressed man (classic).
