✅ I love this! I tested a LOT of perfumes yesterday (at the Neiman Marcus in the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas, they have so many hard to find brands) and this was one of my top picks. The card still smells just as nice today.
✅ Fantastic, highly wearable, green and fresh wormwood/absinthe. Beautiful opening that unfortunately fades to a moderately less interesting (though still very pleasant) skin scent very quickly.
✅ A classic fougere. Not exactly groundbreaking, but it does smell nice.

❌ Unfortunately on the bottle the black currant is way stronger for whatever reason, which is a huge bummer to me because it always does the cat pee thing on me.
❌ I love this for about five minutes. Lots of exotic spicy and green notes at the opening but they evaporate quickly. anise, shaving cream, incense and baby powder take over.
❌ The longevity on my skin is disappointing and bad enough that I likely wouldn't buy a full bottle unfortunately.

❌ My problem with this fragrance is longevity it lasts 4 to 5 hours and that is pushing it.
❌ it is too dense and sombre for my taste.
