"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!"
So, I've bought 4 fragrances (Mulberry Fig, Dia Man, Vétiver Bourbon, Fougère Emeraude) within the last for 4 days. It may have been 5 (Montabaco Rio) if a certain place was not closed over the weekend. Or I may have stopped at 2 given that one's price. Who knows.
Oh, and stay tuned to my impression on those if you're curious.
Anyhow, this one here... Man. This one here.. BIG win.
I've been wanting this fragrance ever since it launched but at first couldn't find it in the US and then, when it was available, I (justly) convinced myself that I did not need it and that I had what I wanted in Wūlóng Chá. However, calculate boredom with obsession and a person can convince themselves to do all type of nonsense. But I digress...
What I get from this is Fico di Amalfi + Fleur de Peau + Amyris Homme, with sandalwood, vetiver, coconut and a very powdery dry amber especially pronounced on the dry down. This is simultaneously one of the best fig, sandalwood, iris, coconut, vetiver and amber scents I've smelled. That alone makes this full bottle worthy (if those notes are your thing).
As trite as saying this is, it's truly "Spring time in a bottle".
My references could be wrong as to the 3 fragrances I mentioned above; I haven't smelled them in quite some time. Those are just what came to mind when I sat smelling this fragrance throughout the day. Today's my first day of actually wearing it out and about and, so far, I stick by my first impression.
This fragrance is very expensive, which I think is the culprit holding it back from being embraced by the community at large. But, man, this is GOOD. Even though they say this fragrance is limited addition, I think they made more because people really love it. However, they may make good on that quote if they decide it's not being embraced enough. In any event, I got mine.
Get it while it's hot, folks!
• Unisex/masculine
• Great longevity
• Spring, maybe all Summer
• 10/10 (I can't see myself getting away from this)
