Etourdi

Stopped by Perfume4U store and the lady handed me this on paper. The opening was strong woody scent. Not annoying but definitely pronounced. Then in a few minutes as I was testing other perfumes, this paper turned into something very smooth, slightly floral, a bit sweetness but not sugary sweet, rather fresh sweet. It hit me strongly like something I have smelled before. Then I realized the dry down is very similar to either or even combination of Luna Rossa Carbon and Prada L'Homme. The price is very high at $150 originally, and the store offered $120 for less than 3.4 oz. But it was EDP, no wonder the longevity is great. I received the paper tester around 2:30 pm. At 9 pm the scent is still strong. Not sure about projection. Can't believe this brand just launched this year in 2019. And it's a US brand, but they tried to make it seem like a France designer. Judging from the scent itself, it's beautiful and definitely smells expensive and luxurious. Well, the price is indeed expensive. Me being a newbie who doesn't feel like spending beyond $50 for anything less than 2.5 oz, I don't see myself buying this anytime soon. And maybe I was being bias about the new brand as well. But if you don't care about the brand, give this a try and I bet you'd love it.

I discovered this brand the other day at perfumes4u. This is simply a masterpiece that reminds me of ezra fitch a discontinued fragrance by abercrombie that smelled amazing with fantastic projection and sillage. It was one of my favorite fragrances and now it sells on eBay for around 600. Etourdi actually smells even better though because it has a higher oil concentration. I tested several colognes that day and nothing came close to how this one smells. It is better then dior sauvage parfum because of its longevity. I sprayed it on my skin and had a tester strip of it and to my surprise I like it even more today. The opening of this fragrance is a beautiful burst of citrus and as it dries down the notes of floral kick in and it has a lot of dimension. I keep smelling the tester strip and it smells like a masterpiece. This is a beast mode fragrance and I think it would be great for a date night or club however I think this could also be a sexy signature scent for everyday. Be prepared for compliments.

I was recommended this fragrance at Fragrance4u about a week ago and have worn it every day since. It is a very nice fragrance very similar to Dior Sauvage. It is a parfum so very concentrated. I got it for a steal at $60ish but the retail price was around $150. The main notes I pick up are the citrus high notes but the most noticeable for me is the amber in the base. It is very strong.
