Oudic Resinous Cotton candy: Heavy times slightly compact intense
Onekh... I had the chance to test him in a noble department store in Bangkok, 3 sprays and I floated in a soothing fragrance for hours < br /> Wow... Oud, smoke, and this dry sweetness in the smoke...could hardly smell me full...afterwards I got an 8ml tester and could continue to deal with Onekh:-)

Somehow it seems oriental to me, but without all the honey, flowers or extreme spices that make oriental perfumes so heavy, sweet or a pure winter scent in Europe I think you can wear it easily in the desert, at a dinner in the tropics, as well as at a summer BBQ in Munich or at a ski event in the Alps
The fragrance is very masculine and masculine and also somewhat statement (could be an oil sheikh-:).

It is Laotian Oud, Resin and Labdanum an amber-like, balsamic aroma, perfectly smoked and somehow cotton candy, what makes this dry and sweet lightness in the combination... Even if I'm describing cotton candy, I don't know how else to describe it

Scent course: Onekh is there.... and becomes less... but only after many hours... But what you put on is there... so no real fragrance like many other perfumes... (some can feel it boring, I can't), even after 12 hours you can still hear a hint of it.

Sillage: Onekh is here...! (one needs little and floats in a cloud) very perceptible, but always with this dry sweetness of lightness of noble resins .
I get a lot of compliments.
(Some write the fragrance is already sooo often smelled... hmm... would like to know which ones appear this way even without "heaviness":-)

Flacon: Yes... a statement and work of art.... very noble and large

Conclusion: The fragrance is not an office or everyday fragrance, it already has something very special to celebrate, and what makes you notice. But I feel an insanely great symphony in the fragrance, which was never perceived as disturbing or negative...

Price: is of course another "thing" again... 280 Euro in Germany (in Thailand 415 Euro) !!! It's already a number...

But in comparison to other "heavy" resin / Oud Dueften is this already very intensive but much lighter (by the pleasant candy floss or perfectly balanced light sweetness which I can not describe) ) and portable in warmer temperatures.
Everybody has his own nose:-) I think this scent is really great... and if not in the office then just for me at home... or for Events

one of the best fragrances I've gotten lately
of course I can only speak of myself - the perfume smells great on me. Also the comments in my circle of acquaintances are more than positive and I am constantly asked by strangers about this "mad smell" as they say. I would buy it again and again and I'm sure I'd add some from the "Le Gemme" series

Accident at the chemical plant - Department B [escaped substance unknown]
More and more often I notice a wood note in fragrances lately, which shows a pungent character. Even if this note was obviously only used for support in the base, I immediately feel a tingling sensation in my nose. I find this substance as main actor in Bvlgaris Onekh.

The fragrance starts with shower gel freshness, which is maintained throughout the entire process. What's that? You won't find it in the pyramid! Right, but it smells just like one of the many men's shower gels in the black tube. Light fruity notes are added, both immediately suppressed by dark leather, resin and wood. A parallel to the numerous raspberry-leather scents can certainly be seen, but does not play a major role here. Synthetic plasticoud mixes up the rough woody character.

Onekh's leading role plays a sharp, pungent-synthetic wood note. Due to the fragrance pyramid, which can never be idendified, I have often noticed it across mainstream and niche, but especially in cheap Arabic fragrances. Unfortunately this note gives me a headache, almost corrodes through my nose into my head and causes a constant swelling of my mucous membranes. Otherwise - even with extensive scent testing - actually not receptive to physical reactions, it drives me here after a short time to the sink. Anyone who feels that the material used is less caustic and sharp will certainly rate it differently. But even when trying to hide this note, I would have blindly assigned the fragrance to a cheap Arabic house or to one of the cheap (but brave) fashion houses like ZARA.

Anyone who reacts in a similar way to me at this point or has a guess as to which substance it might be may urgently leave an answer. Apart from that, there is nothing more I can say, except that the warming, spicy-ambry, almost cookie-chocolate base doesn't help the fragrance to score any more.

Durability and Sillage are very good, even after washing the scent is still clearly perceptible.

Initially uplifting and citric-spicy, a rather dry oriental spicy-leathery Fall fragrance, balanced by a smooth resinous-woody base.
