En la página de la compañía (Ecuación Natural), le asignan una canción a este perfume, Yanni – Deliverance, es un buen punto de partida.

De salida mucho azafrán y jengibre. Málaga árabe, sus calles, su bullicio, su gente, sus puestos, la vida.
Es precioso el efecto, lo que hace Megamare con la costa aquí lo hace transportándote a las calles de una Málaga antigua.

La calidad de las notas y de la mezcla se nota desde el primer momento, así como la proyección que llega a los dos metros de salida fácilmente.

Hay que matizar que es un perfume fuerte, muy especiado en el sentido sucio, de cargante, de masa de gente, de vida en la calle, para mi entra completamente en la categoría de experiencia olfativa no como perfume usable.

Para mi el principal problema, aunque mucha gente lo apreciará, es que a partir de la primera hora empieza a cambiar de fase y va hacia otro tipo de perfume, el azafrán se va atrás, empieza a salir un clavel muy potente, con algo de tabaco cremoso. Pensaba que el café se notaría más pero sí que tiene un toque, la parte más fuerte y envolvente del dulzor. Según pasa el tiempo sigue cada vez a ese lado floral, hacia un clavel jabonoso, sin calidez y casi sin especias.

Aunque tiene un aura muy bonita a lo que podría ser pasear por jardines árabes, es demasiado jabonosa, aquí no está balanceada, es como usar un aceite de jazmín.

A ratos sale algo del carácter especiado anterior, pero la vibración general es más de un paseo por el alcázar, cuando el pico de flores empieza a suavizarse y vuelven a notarse las notas gourmand, contrasta mucho con la sensación inicial y aquí sí, la parte mala, es que no llega a balancearse en ningún momento la transición del floral intenso de palacio árabe con la parte especiada que queda. Este perfume es una experiencia, un viaje, que no llega a ser perfecto en sus cambios.

If you're expecting just a pleasant and usable perfume for any autumn/winter occasion it is a good option, the general vibe of the perfume is amber + iris, or in sensations, it is warm-clean with an extra masculine touch of the cardamom, the rest of the notes are anecdotal.

Pros:
In the range of designer fragrances it scores medium with aspirations to high
Higher quality of the amber note than I expected
Versatile use
Price

Against:
Does not stand out at all
If you expect something more than just a warm pleasant smell it will bore you

It has an alcoholic opening, fruity, strong red apple (apparently in 2013 it was a heart note, in the new one you can clearly feel it in the opening) and wood, it's a kind of a difficult mix at the beginning, but the papyrus enters and gives a dry touch and together with the initial green notes they create something that is interesting, although in the notes of the fraiche version don't have leather listed, it has the note, it has a dirty jacket type leather, something like the La Yuqawam one, until here everything ok, it could evolve towards something good, but it is as if in a race you start with full throttle and before reaching the last gear you run out of gas.

It lacks performance, it doesn't project at any time, and that green-leather game goes to the skin immediately, there it remains alive for another hour until it begins to unravel, leaving a dark vetiver that rests almost alone for a little longer, It's a shame because there was something being created but the balloon exploded before tying the knot.

I liked it at first sniff, but there was something strange that reminded me a lot...yeah Sauvage EDT, as is, the same smell, I don't know if they recognize that it is a direct clone, but it is 85% similar, the same vibe, less metallic, I prefer the extra pepper of the original that makes the opening more powerful, but both achieve that modern, digital smell (if a smell can be characterized like that) and versatile. If you want to have a Sauvage at a third of the price or if you don't like the aggressive opening of the original but you like the smell as is, it's a great option.

And yes, the bottle, is aesthetic terrorism.

It was love at first test, even though is pretty similar to Santal 33 is quite unique in the fragrance market, it's dry, elegant, versatil, it smell is gorgeous, differences with the Le Labo one are more sandalwood, more cardamom in the top notes and it last longer, also true that is less shining, I think I like Santal 33 around 20% more but with the price tag difference it absolutely doesn't worth it.

Quality/price is one of the best I own, far over it price range perfumes and over a lot of niches, projection is one meter during 2 hours, and in skin it last good around 8 hours, and in that "really skin scent" is more than 12, this morning after the shower it still smelling to that sandalwood base.

From the El Ganso collection, even though all of them are good (special mention to Friday Edition) it's the best.
