Heavenly, divine, ...

With this fragrance XJ weiß Gott has set standards! It seduces me (lastingly) from the first moment on and is probably the tastiest amber creation I was allowed to sniff. I am also thankful that the ylang-ylang I loved was so "built in" here that you can perceive it and still (?) wear it.

Now that I have experienced a number of Xerjoff fragrances, I dare to make a comparison: with Roja. Both will have to put up with that - not least they play in the same price league, and they can't defend themselves either. Well, perhaps indirectly, if I call vehement supporters of one or the other to the scene ...

In short: In contrast to Roja perfumes, whose first impression can be deceptive and in which different notes emerge and take effect in the course of the hours, I cannot observe such a development in any of the XJ fragrances known to me. Maybe I'm too much of a layman for that, and more experienced scent noses will wrinkle them over my statement.

Anyway, I love this fragrance anyway (or even more so), because it delights me constantly for a whole day.

Timeless perfume art... a masterpiece!

Simply a masterpiece! I can't express it more aptly!
You don't need to say a word about the H/S with this fragrance, just ultra ingenious!
The P/L, well, it's already a hefty price.

The fragrance itself:
Wonderful warm wood bedded in honey (Yes, I smell honey out)!
It is a very multi-faceted fragrance that unfolds wonderfully on the skin and is by no means linear, but remains true to its line.

Still, he brought back a memory of something... then it occurred to me:

"Oud Save The King" (yes, for comparison some Xerjoff fans will want to hit me now)

But honestly, I compared yesterday with Oud Save the King and found an amazing resemblance to the "Amber Star".

The OSTK smells a little less like honey, a little "cookie" I would say!
In short, if you like the Amber Star but don't have the necessary change, you should try the OSTK!
In comparison to the Amber Star a real "Cheapie", of course not quite so multifaceted and refined, but definitely worth a test!

Nevertheless, Chapeau for this masterpiece!
