Chicago High

Wow! I am blown away with this one! I fell in love with Vilhelm Perfumerie after trying several of their masterpieces. So let’s talk about Chicago High...By the way my home city ;) It’s all about 1920s, retro chic and speakeasy atmosphere.... It opens up boozy, sparkling and accompanied with juicy pineapple and zesty bergamot surrounded by honey and tobacco smoke..... I close my eyes and the scent transports me into this elite secret bar in downtown of Chicago, where all the classiest and influential people gather to celebrate life with a fine drink and a smooth cigar and enjoy some jazz hits of that time... As time goes on citrusy and fruity notes tame down and I get even more tobacco which now is accompanied by leather and a little bit of amber and even less patchouli... Performance is beast on me...10+ hours and projects enough for others to notice To say I am obsessed with this scent is understatement I have never experienced anything even close to this.. It’s a must if you are into heavy night time slightly masculine scents...

A very rich and dry amber, combined with a boozy and leathery undertone. There's also a distinct immortelle note which isn't mentioned, but it adds a sensation of licorice and brown sugar to the whole. Due to the extreme opulence of the fragrance and the lack of cheap tricks, I'm going to guess this was created by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato as well (cfr Body Paint). Very well made, stylistically so different from the rest of the brand that it might have issues finding its audience.

Longevity is very long ,so I will venture to disagree with some of you saying its poor.Me,and my dry skin, on which everything dissapears instanteneously-this lasts all day. Fabulous perfume with those boozy,chick elements-truly a masteriece.The rest from this collection is no.None of them is worthy to spend money on.

What a unique fragrance. Very heavy on the booze, but sweet honey at the same time. I haven't smelled anything like this before. There is a small similarity between this and Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille, but I may like this one more. A bit more complex.

This is really good. I recently I went to Saks, and this wasn’t even on my radar. I smelled a ton of fragrances, but kept coming back to this. It’s like nothing I’ve ever smelled. Try it!
