From Dusk to Dawn
I haven't smelled the previous formulation so I'm coming in with a fresh nose and no associations to what seems to be a controversial reformulation -
This fragrance goes through a number of stages which I find quite interesting - definitely not a linear scent. A fresh opening that is quickly drowned by the 'dusk' into a dark body led by the woods, the patchouli, and to a lesser extent the dark chocolate notes. As the fragrance develops, the darkness fades and a softer/sweeter, lighter base comes to the front with the vanilla, tonka and rum notes bringing out the 'dawn' part of the composition. Throughout, the dark chocolate and patchouli notes are the anchors, though they do fade further into background in favor of the lighter notes towards the dry down.
Excellent performance and great longevity on this - as it should given the journey it takes one through.
