Come with Me

Very dry and waxy orris with lots of carrots seeds and a bit of dark leather and tart sweetness in the base. I can also feel something fresh, similar to aldehydes maybe. It’s a really nice and complex scent, I think it should get more attention. On the blotter it’s a bit too heavy for me (probably jasmine or some molecules are giving me a bit of headache), but I would definitely try it on my skin. Follow me on ig: scent.guide

The opening is very promising and unique with an earthy effect from the carrot, I suppose, and then come a nice cloud of musk. I don’t detect the artichoke as such but I guess it helps to push some green vegetable facets of the fragrance and the Orris too. The only negative point is that this Edp disappears very quickly on the skin or the clothes. Ideal after yoga!

The opening is very elegant and comforting but the dry-down is a mess. I am getting bathroom air freshner.

Smell like leather and bloody ceazer salt.

Overall, I like this collection: interesting variations of leather. I am a big fan of the powdery elements of Illusion series and the unforgettable suede note in their signature collection. I get these echoes in The Venice Collection which overall is more masculine. It's not masculinity in a tradition sense, it's a line for metrosexual men with soft and fancy masculinity. "Come with Me" is a Vetiver centered fragrance, similar to Fat Electrician by ELO, with a solid doze of Carrot Seeds that last throughout. I would add the notes of Chalk, Hay, and Whipped Cream in here. It feels so dry that I become thirsty. I hate Ambrocenide that crawls into "Come with Me" at the drydown and kills it all for me. Most people will probably not feel it which is the case with many modern ambers. I speak about it in my last video "I hate Modern Ambers" Dina_France (YouTube perfume reviews)
