This Fragrance initially arrived at my doorstep feeling kind off warm, the courier lay the fragrance under scorching sun and the color are slightly different than what I've from the store. When I test it on paper and skin it smells weird, I only got the smell of blackpeper and woods.
I decided to let it cooldown for a couple of day first then retest it again, still got this weird hint of black pepper and a really really dry drydown.
I decided to let it sit in my shelves inside the box and forget about it, i reached for it after a month or so jut to remember the dryness of the fragrance.
To my suprise the fragrance becomes sweeter and creamier with a hint of aa lovely black pepper, this is the exact one i smelt in the store, somehow the maceration restored the fragrance composition and makes it lovely again.
The fragrance first hits you with this somehow sweet black pepper accord then proceed to transition onto this creamy sandal wood that is tad bit powdery. This is a lovely Barbershop esc or style of a fragrance. Might reminds you of some temple or any asian store market that sells spices, a gentlemanly fragrance if you are looking for a masculine scents and if you love sandal woods do check it out.
This doesnt reminds me of any particular fragrances, but it does this somehow creamy spices like V&R Spice bomb extreme BUT it is not similar or brings any similarity onto the fragrance itself.
NOT BLIND BUY SAFE, so do buy samples and check it in stores to see wether it suits your style or not.
