At first, it starts very compelling and familiar. After some time, I realized the dna is almost the same as Mancera Red Tobacco. However, this one feels much friendlier and i think the cherry nuance from Red Tobacco is missing. It’s less offensive, and if you enjoy this type it could be an easy blind buy. It doesn’t smell synthetic, but don’t expect a beastmode performer. Longevity is around 3-4 h, after that is only skin scent. Sillage is moderate. If they manage to improve the longevity, this could be a real banger because, to my nose, it actually smells better. But for now the price is very similar to Red Tobacco and doesn’t justify choosing this over the latter.

I got a sample of this with an order. It's not really something I'd go for myself. In the opening there is a lot of oud, a lot of patchouli, it's giving a leathery vibe. There is some honey sweetness in the back, slightly reminding me of Xerjoff Naxos. The middle notes and the drydown remind me even more strongly of Naxos though this one is nowhere near as sweet as Naxos - it still remains a bit more woody and smoky than Naxos does. It leans more masculine for me though I can see it on men and women alike.

Мой любимый запах горящей церкви и манускриптов. Дерзкий, заставляет оборачиваться в поисках источника. Шлейф достаточно интимный. Сладость очень незначительная, дымная и тающая. Вы или влюбитесь с первой встречи, или будете потом пинать по шкафу флакон.
