Scent Journey
The first spray of Fad Regal is a soft, fresh floral. Cyclamen dominates initially, offering a slightly watery, powdery, and clean impression. There is a hint of sweetness from the labdanum underneath, but the opening remains airy and unisex. Some wearers may find the opening a bit quiet, but it quickly develops.
As the top note fades, labdanum takes center stage. The fragrance becomes warmer, more resinous, and slightly amber-like. A subtle leathery facet appears, adding sophistication. The powdery quality from the cyclamen remains, blending with the labdanum to create a smooth, balsamic heart. This is when the scent feels most unisex and versatile.
The base notes emerge fully. Vanilla, cedarwood, and musk create a sweet, woody, and musky cocoon. The vanilla is creamy but not edible, the cedarwood adds dryness, and the musk softens everything into a skin-like warmth. The drydown lasts for hours, with the powdery and balsamic accords lingering. At this stage, Fad Regal is cozy, inviting, and perfect for cold weather.
