Cleopatra’s Power Play, 47 BC

Very strong candidate to be an ss, unusual and softly warm. I love the milky dry down, stays on clothes for a long time. Doesn't get sour on my skin, so a huge plus, since it's my personal curse very often. It's a love from me <3

I have been on a scent journey for close to a year now. My journey randomly led me to Chronicles-Scents of History. I ordered some samples from them. They only have two scents, Cleopatra's Power Play and Boston Tea Party. Both are very interesting, but I absolutely love Cleopatra's Power Play. It's very sensual and warm. At first it hits you and right away you can tell that this is different. The dry down is very subtle and quick, there is no alcohol harshness, just the musk and resins. but those settle in. What happens next when it blended with my skin was so divine. I love it. I could spray one spray, and it will last me like 6-8 hours. The different layers of this fragrance are so fun to discover as it becomes one with you. I have not sprayed it on my clothes as I only purchased samples. I got a few sets of samples since it was coming from Poland. My fiancé loves it on me. The customer service is so good. I couldn't get the international order to work at first (in the US), it was my fault, and they were very nice about it. This is the only one on my must have list right now.

🏛️ The Carpet Gambit 🏺 Caesar stares at the rug that has just landed on the floor. Dust rises in the shafts of sunlight; you can smell the grit of the ancient palace and the sand drifting through the colonnades. As the fabric unfurls, it is not just expensive oils you detect. It is the scent of a body after hours in tight concealment. This is not the "pretty" Cleopatra from a textbook. This is a tactical maneuver: skin rubbed with milk and jasmine, yet muddied by coarse textile and animalic musk. The sweetness of the dates is dry, masked by a rough palm leaf and gritty myrrh. This is not a relaxing spa bath: it is milk that has long since cooled, leaving a thick, almost buttery residue on the skin. The fragrance is stifling and intriguingly intimate.
