Out with the old, in with the new(ish?)

Parfums de Nicolai NY Intense is everything that most niche masculine perfumes should be: interesting but familiar, classical but modern, zingy and tart but with added depth. At first smell I am hit by a combination of citruses not unlike Chanel Pour Monsieur or Monsieur de Givenchy. The expectation is that they give way to the heavy base notes but on my skin they remain throughout the life of the fragrance. The other big players are the oakmoss, the lavender and the vanilla with just a dash of spice (a bit of clove and cinnamon). In the drydown there is an oriental feeling without being able to call the fragrance oriental: the base is simply supporting the fragrance, never taking away from top and heart notes, only supporting. Incredible fragrance to be launched in 2014, sits on the same shelf as Habit Rouge, Chanel pour Monsieur and Eau Sauvage.

Just Wow!!!

This fragrance is out of this world. Pay this rant no mind but this frag gets busy. On the opening it is strong as an ox. On the opening this fragrance smells simple and dated. I could compare it to Polo green or any generic scent like old spice or brut. That's when the magic happens. The lemon and bergamot bloom after the the alcohol smells dries down and it's amazing. Normally I would not break character and have to write about a fragrance from my collection but it's oh-so-worthy. This composition mixes the old with the new in my opinion without using anything synthetic. Pour monsieur and Edition Blanche by Chanel can all take seats. The king is here. To explain how this fragrance works I will say that it smells like a lemon tart from from a fancy restaurant. This balanced and I could smell most notes of this for at least two hours. It went from citrusy to masculine and brut. This frag much like Aventus make cross over into every style of fragrance since it drew notes from all across the spectrum. Don't miss out on this as I think it's my new all time favorite.
