Abraxas

The opening of Abraxa is bright and luscious, with ripe peach taking center stage. Bergamot adds just enough sparkle to keep the fruit from becoming syrupy, while a touch of dried fruits gives it a rich, almost nectar-like quality. As the fragrance settles, the white florals begin to bloom. Jasmine and tuberose are the stars, but they are polished rather than heady. Osmanthus weaves a soft apricot nuance through the heart, creating a seamless transition from the fruity opening. Ylang-ylang contributes a creamy, golden warmth, while narcissus adds a subtle green edge that keeps the composition from becoming overly sweet. Performance is excellent on my skin. I get over 10 hours of wear, with moderate projection during the first few hours before it settles into a scent bubble that remains noticeable throughout the day. Anyone who enjoys rich white florals will appreciate Abraxas, regardless of gender. It's a fragrance built around creamy florals and ripe fruits, presented with remarkable smoothness. With no abrupt shifts or rough edges, the composition evolves naturally from its juicy opening to its velvety floral heart. It's certainly not an inexpensive fragrance, and whether it's worth the price depends on how much you appreciate this style of perfumery.

If you are looking for a fruity floral that is neutral enough for men to wear, this may be the one. Dry fruit helps pushing the sweet fruity floral tone a bit toward gourmand side. Opening with white flower followed by creamy yellow flowers. Well belnded and luxerious. Long lasting with good sillage.

Mainly just white flowers and ylang-ylang that dominate the scent. Quite indolic. Super strong projection. Too strong for me. Just one or two sprays total would have been alright. Great if you’re crazy over these flowers. But if you’re like me looking for the dry fruits then you maybe out of luck.
