Maine Coon

Took a chance blind buying Velvetail Maine Coon because I have one of these amazing cats. Personally, I feel this is a very masculine leaning scent and even though as a women I enjoy a challenging fragrance and wear them frequently, this one is a LOT. Opening is very aromatic, loud and overwhelming and reminds me of a barbershop. As it dries down the jasmine starts to make an entrance but not quite as much as I wish it would. I feel like this needs more florals to counterbalance how intense the herbs and spices are. There is a medicinal quality to this perfume which isn't sitting well to my nose. It lasts forever on both paper and skin and the projection is insane. I wanted to be able to love this but unfortunately, for me, it was a scrubber that I could not scrub off. Be forewarned. This is one of the most difficult perfumes I've ever tried and I can't even see who or where this could be worn. Alas it's sitting in my dresser drawer with hopes that come winter this might be more likeable. We'll see.
