Community Verdict
Pros & Cons
- ✅ Really nice heavily spiced vanilla, ambery and musky fragrance. ... it's a unique sweet cold weather fragrance that's very addicting
- ✅ What a masterpiece of a fragrance man. It literally makes me feel warm inside, never had that happen before with any fragrance.
- ✅ The blend is exceptionally smooth, with no rough edges or awkward transitions. ... a true masterclass in perfumery.
- ✅ arguably the best oriental in the world
- ✅ unapologetic and progressive composition
- ✅ great performance
- ✅ Exceptionally unique and iconic scent profile
- ✅ Superb longevity that lasts all day and into the night
- ❌ I find this a bit of an anticlimax. I get very little musk or anything remotely animalic. ... it's hard to recommend.
- ❌ Way too sweet and ambery, would love more of the earthy musk that everyone else seems to be getting. ... more like a crowd-pleasing gourmand.
- ❌ Blind bought a 100ml bottle ... I do regret this blind buy. ... from the first spray I can smell a dirty old dog sitting in a 30C degrees sun heat.
- ❌ not for beginners
- ❌ limited wearability
- ❌ reformulated
- ❌ The animalic musk may be challenging for some upon first impression
- ❌ Can be too potent or cloying in hot weather
