Huhu Aqua Vitae where are you?
With these words I want to start this comment, but now first to the reason for this. I received with a purchase in the souk Aqua Vitae as a sample and yesterday it was time to test this fragrance, but on the subject of performance can be said here unfortunately really Huhu Aqua Vitae where are you, because unfortunately the shelf life is really very bad, unfortunately I could reach here only 2-3 hours with a little luck maybe 4 hours and this poor performance is for me really an exclusion criterion, because this perfume is not really cheap that can be simply sprayed on it even not in the 200 ml version. The next problem is with Aqua Vitae that the beginning is really great vanilla with a great freshness and fruitiness, but unfortunately this great note fades after 15-20 minutes and you are left with mostly vanilla and tonka bean and musk even though it is not in the fragrance pyramid. I kind of smell musk out here. I can not give a good rating here unfortunately, because for this simply the performance is too bad and also the fragrance suffers.

Vitae and Forte
In this video i review and compare both Aqua Vitae and its flanker, Aqua Vitae Forte. So far I haven't had a lot of luck with Maison Francis Kurkdjian fresher scents, I wonder if my luck is about to change.

as fleeting as the bubbles in champagne
First of, I really like Kurdjian's work, it's like art to me. Nose art. However (and I probably have this issue with most citrus scents) as bright, sparkly and natural-Prozac this is, it truly does not last on skin/clothes for more than an hour, no matter how liberally I spray. For the short span of time that I can smell it, it really is as enjoyable as a hike in fresh mountain air. Bright, sparkly, zesty and all other positive words come to mind when applying this. After it settles it becomes slightly more jasmine/woodsy...and then it's gone. If there was a way this could be made a more tenacious scent, I would definitely not think twice about purchasing a bottle.

It's a more exotic, creamier, sweeter (with better quality) CK One.

A fresh citric pop, light uplifting white florals, and a touch of creamy vanilla. Like Universalis with more lemon + cream. Lemon meringue.

Citrusy-fruity-sweet, watery and breezy-loose at the same time. The fragrance would be very appealing if the longevity were not so poorly.

1st impression:“I ve smelled that before”. Reminds me of a male after shave.It’s a good citrusy floral smell but nothing new or intriguing.
