Junoon Velvet Pour Homme

Fell in love with Iris Malikhan last winter. Bought a little 30 ml bottle. It was empty within a month. Because of the pricetag, did not buy a new one. Then I got a 10 ml sample of Memo Italian leather. Boy, I was the luckiest girl alive, because this was difinitely Irish Malikhan ‘s older sibling. ( a little less iris, a little more tomato leaf green ) It was empty within less than two weeks. And then I found this gem. Exact same vibe, dry, powdery, balsamy, sweet, perfectly unisex. Where IM is a little lighter and a fraction more feminin, Janoon is just a little heavier on the oriental side in the drydown, but I am really REALLY happy with this purchase. I can’t wait for colder days to wear this, cause for summery warm days I think this will be too leathery for a really pale ginger girl. ( or maybe.... It isn’t!? Let’s find out soon! ) But for now, when the evenings are still pretty cold, perfect for date night!!!

Opulence and royalty that’s what this says. I’m Arab. This is a dress up fragrance. A wedding fragrance. It’s warm, complex and dense. A unique combo of a warm, green leather. Not animalic but sweet and soft. Excellent fragrance to have in your collection if you want something special. For those wondering about the tomato leaf, it just adds a slight green element to the fragrance which works well, makes it special without messing up the luxurious presence of this perfume.

Rasasi Junoon Velvet pour homme I just discovered this one.. the bottle arrived last night and I am totally smitten... sitting in a cloud of Junnon Velvet Pour Homme right now It's ravishing, energising and also comforting... and filled with history and imagination The beautiful green note of tomato leaf that nestles on a bed of leather, labdanum and sexy vanilla... and then the dry, sophisticated rasp of galbanum softened by benzoin, woods and orris root.. Heaven

Easily one of the best blind buys from the middle eastern houses and extremely underrated. This is dry, airy, resinous, woody and slightly nutty. Amazing cloud, it doesn't overwhelm but sticks around and hugs you for most of the day. Definitely a 10/10 for me. Backup bottle worthy for sure!

Cocoa forward to me! Wonderful, then light leather, plus all the precious resins and a little musk and sweetness. Tomato leaf only really blasts through at the very beginning. A wonderful scent and quite different.
