Insurrection II Emperor

The white bottle in this line was a go to for me for a while and I tried this one today and in my opinion it’s a great addition to the line. This fragrance reminds me of D&G Devotion pour femme. I feel like this is a better representation of a male equivalent to Devotion than the one released by D&G with that boring coffee note from 5 years ago. Very well blended and the bottle is beautiful. If you like a warm bright spicy citrus fragrance this is certainly one to check out!

Yep it's smells like orange I guess from the Pink pepper but it's light kind of like Coral fantasy but Orange instead of Apple. The one disappointment in this fragrance is the longevity on skin not so good. But for the price you can spray spray. Blind by safe if you like orange ish with a dry woodsy base. Great for the summer I'm giving this a 9 out of 10 unique. 9/10

Generally the Insurrection series hasn’t done much for me, but Emperor is the exception. This is cheap and cheerful for sure, but the creamsicle on top of Aventus DNA twist is actually kind of unique and playful, and I enjoy this more than the more blatant and hollow copies

I love it. It is like a child of Aventus and Ultrared man. Great for warmer weather. Uplifting and playful. Almost unisex. I get the pineapple and moss. Citrus and fruitiness. Slight vanilla to give it some sweetness.

* Smells just like an orange creamsicle seasoned with pink peppercorns * Good blend of sweet, citrus, and vanilla aromas with slight aromatic fougere touches of herbs * Good price point * Good QPR value * Great for younger users * Good for warm weather * Unisex * Smells just like an orange creamsicle seasoned with pink peppercorns * Can be easily replicated by layering a citrus and a vanilla fragrance * Aromatic fougere notes could be stronger to help differentiate it * Not good for older users * Not good for those who dislike modern sweet fragrances Reyanne's Insurrection II Emperor is a flanker in their Insurrection II line which mostly takes its inspiration from Creed Aventus (except for Insurrection II Wild which is a fantastic Mugler A*Men Pure Malt clone). This takes that idea and runs away with the citrus while dropping the tropical fruit and amping up the herbal notes. The result is that it smells like an orange creamsicle in the opening before some more sophisticated aromatic fougere style herbal and pink pepper notes appear in the drydown to give it some sophistication.The major issue is that aromatic fougere notes aren't quite strong enough to lift this into Parfum de Marley's Sedley or Lattafa's Maahir Legacy territory, so the orange creamsicle aroma dominates overall. It's a very pleasant and fun aroma, but it may also come off smelling too sweet and candy-like for some. Overall, this is great for younger users who like the modern style of sweet and fresh fragrances. Not so much for older users. It can easily be replicated with a citrus forward fragrance such as Acqua di Gio or a clone thereof layered with a strong vanilla forward fragrance (like Reyanne's own Insurrection). Or you can just grab this from a discounter. Price point is excellent, quality is high. It's totally unisex and great for the warm months. Recommended, especially if you like sweet and fresh fragrances.
