November 2019

I got this fragrance in February and I found very interesting. I set it asid because I have so many other fragrances. When I revisited it, oh man. I wore it for a month straight. Great for. Cold weather. It’s on a category of its own. Nothing else I’ve tried like it. I have many if not all niche frags. I don’t like designer other than Tom Ford and the private lines for other designers that veer niche. So take my word. This fragrance is challenging but pleasantly. The mint clashes yet blend smoothly with the oud, tobacco and hazelnut. It’s so well blended that attempting to separate all the notes is challenging yet you can identify them. I got a full bottle for less than 80 bucks. I recommend the brand. This brand commissions indie perfumers and gives them an outline and wow the perfumers deliver unique and creative creations.

Got a sample of this after reading that its one of the finalists in A&O award, and support canadian perfumer. Was a mistake. Big mistake. Scent is rather weird to start with, like a low quality grape flavoured shisha. Has a bit of a piercing nature, slight chemical undertone. On positive side, washed my hand 4 times from a drop of perfume, and its still there. Got as well sample of Neroli, based on great set of notes. Result is chalky smell with slight chlorine undertone. Dont understand how things like these can even be cooked and released :(
