The scent is brilliantly good. Anyone who likes the fragrance dna of Aventus will find pleasure here. It is not an Aventus clone, but it is strongly reminiscent of the fruity pineapple in the top note.

However, the fragrance does not last 25 minutes and the sillage is not present at all. Very sad for such a great fragrance

I think no "Cheapie" (cheap fragrance) has been mentioned as often by any Youtuber or Influencer as this fragrance. Without exception, the fragrance is raved about. This made me wonder a bit. Many descriptions suggest that this is an "old man fragrance" with strong leather & incense notes.

So I ordered a scent sample from a Parfumo user, opened it and then .... WOW.....
It is yes so much better than expected. I was very happy, because I found a new perfume that I like very much and that's not even so easy with all the junk that there is so :-)
So the same day the bottle was ordered! Also ersourkt of course :)

Now to the fragrance itself:
The sweet rum fragrance remains very linear and keeps straight throughout the fragrance pyramid. However, this is neither boring nor bad, because it joins various nouancen to it and underline the "Boosie" character of the fragrance.
In the top note, the fragrance opens rather peppery and has a very slight "sharpness" you can say the above-mentioned rum supports.
Shortly thereafter, the fragrance unfolds a gentle smokiness and it joins woody notes. The fragrance is but never too dry. I now imagine in the background very easy to perceive the cinnamon that fits perfectly into this fragrance chord. However, this note evaporates very quickly.
In the drydown dominates ultimately only the rum with light woody notes such as sandalwood which ensure that the fragrance is not too sweet and retains its "masculinity".

For whom is this fragrance suitable?
Essentially, this behaves with fragrances as with clothes. Everyone should wear what makes him happy and what he wants to wear. However, this fragrance addresses rather self-confident "masculine" gentlemen. Without wanting to step on someone's feet with it I think that this fragrance is not suitable for teenagers or young students and if then just to the appropriate occasion.

I can not get enough of it and smell constantly on my wrist. And also my wife knocks this fragrance around. If you pay attention that the fragrance does not wear you but you the fragrance then you are sure compliments and he will make you happy. At the price you can do aufjedenfall nothing wrong

Everybody had such a boy at school back then.... It was winter -3°C and this boy came nevertheless in short trousers to the school - mostly in addition some festival T shirt. The outfit was certainly inappropriate for the cold days of the year and thus he has always attracted attention and has polarized.

But this perfume from Guerlain is quite different. Grapefruit, bergamot ... that sounds yet a Freshie for the spring / summer. But in winter ?
YES!
This fragrance is perfect for all those who are looking for a fresh scent for the cold days of the year without being too contrasting or no friends of heavy or sweet fragrances but want to adapt your fragrance to the season or their outfit.
The almond (characteristic of this series of Guerlain) and the neroli round off the fragrance and remind me of a cozy winter punch in front of the fireplace. They fit perfectly with the top note.

This fragrance is very pleasing, does not antagonize and provocative yet it is very different from other fragrances. In a way, I find him very individual and I like that especially in this fragrance.
However, it is no longer produced so you should be quick if you still want to get a bottle

Right up front it should be said that there is no oud listed but it can still be smelled. Here Franck Olivier has created a very long-lasting, and strong OUD DNA with a combination of rose, Mochus and other ingredients.

I've been able to try a few oud fragrances by now, and I have to say that OudTouch by Franck Olivier is already very extreme. It's definitely not a mainstream fragrance and it doesn't really have a fragrance pyramid. Don't get me wrong. I love it and I love wearing it.
Only who wears perfume to get compliments the should not make great hopes. Only sworn Parfumo users and niche fragrance freaks will recognize that you carry an oriental-sensual note with you that consciously sets you apart from the crowd.

To the fragrance pyramid it should be said that the fragrance already in the top note reinhaut. I use 1 to max 1.5 sprays. The fresh orange in the top note does not last long because directly the "fake oud" in the form of rose, jasmine and patchouli pushes through and remains directly present. He knows to please and "stinks" not as extreme as it is the case with many other "cheap" oud fragrances. This Duftzustammenstellung remains, however, almost continuously maintained whereby a real fragrance pyramid is missing.
For this, you know directly what you're up to with this fragrance.

Who is not sure whether he likes oud fragrances can slowly get on here, but should remember that he is by no means a representative fragrance for oud, especially since no real oud is included and he can not compete with niche fragrances. But for a small olfactory internship he is more than enough.

P.S. I like to layer the fragrance with a "lighter" fragrance to get so an even more balanced fragrance DNA because the OudTouch alone goes in the "dark" direction. Just try out here on the wrist what suits you best

First of all: I have not yet been able to test the original Percival and can therefore make here no comparison that may wish some. I would like to try my impression to give this fragrance.

You can keep from DUA what you want. Currently, the Hate here in the forum is relatively large although the fragrances speak for themselves. The durability, the sillage and the price is unbeatable. From the craft of Inspired Expressions times apart.

DUA Legendary Knight lives up to its name. I'm actually not a friend of fresh scents but this fragrance has already made it to my top 3 fragrances at all at the first smell. I just could not stop smelling it.

In the top note comes directly a fresh tangerine with a touch of bergamot. Unlike other "fresh" or "aquatic" fragrances, the sillage here is already very extreme at the beginning.

After an initial drydown join sweeter fragrance compositions such as the cinnamon and rose geranium that round off the scents of the top note perfectly. I just can not stop sniffing my wrist - I'm really excited.

After about 1 hour, the initial "extreme freshness" settles and the individual fragrance components harmonize together to create an incredibly seductive scent that is fresh and sweet. The pepper, nutmeg and other woody scents are quite easily perceptible in the heart note and join in the background.

The sillage is a BEAST as mentioned above. It is extremely perceptible throughout the day without tarnishing since the fragrance itself is very pleasing and "Mainstreamig". One is definitely noticed and also takes itself was over several hours. On the clothes it keeps 2 days without problems (depending on dosage)

The scent is masculine, fresh, sweet and woody at the same time. For me crafted a perfect fragrance composition that has convinced me also aquatic fresh scents to learn to love.
I can recommend it unreservedly despite the "pointless" DUA discussion that some bored Parfumo user may lead.
