Miss AP Agent Provocateur 2018
1
Very Nice for the Price Point
Miss AP is my first Agent Provocateur fragrance. It is very nice for the grey market price point. It is much better than a lot of celebrity scents and other fragrances I have smelt in this price range. I do not find it particularly unique, but it is the type of fragrance that would easily garner compliments.
To my nose, Miss AP is a predominantly pachouli scent. I detect some pink pepper, but I do not detect specific florals such as ylang-ylang which is one of my favourite floral notes. Vanilla is not a listed noted, but I detect a bit of vanilla in the deep dry down. Overall, it is a spicy, warm, powdery, feminine fragrance that patchouli lovers undoubtedly will enjoy. I would classify it as an Oriental.
This perfume is probably best left for evening and leisure wear. Miss AP is said by some to be a reformulation of L'agent. I have never smelt L'agent, so I cannot reliably comment on how similar they are or not, but I can tell you I detect zero incense in Miss AP, and judging by L'agent reviews, I speculate that Miss AP and L'agent may be distant cousins at best.
Miss AP is not at all challenging to wear in my opinion, so if you find the notes appealing, and if you like lightly spicy, powdery Orientals, I deem it a reasonably safe blind buy.
Performance is reasonably good. It does not project very far, but longevity is excellent at 12+ hours on my skin.
Projection: 5/10
Sillage: 5/10
Longevity: 9/10
