Maze Al Haramain Eau de Parfum

"Be brave enough to wear a fragrance that packs a punch!" I appeal to all those who would love to wear a powerful scent but (still) lack the right courage to do so.
This Maze is a prime example of powerful and complex fragrances that, however, are not perceived as unpleasant or bothersome by most "sniffers."
An opening with bright citrus notes and a slightly bitter-green aroma of wormwood (Artemisia) already piques curiosity for the flood of ingredients waiting in the distant background.
Not explosively, but one after the other, the scents unfold like a fishing net that is slowly being let down into the water. A cheeky rose peeks out, fine jasmine, not too sweet, and a bit of warm neroli.
Many other scent elements may play a role, so cleverly integrated that none can be distinctly picked out. It simply smells floral, green, slightly spicy, casually elegant, and at the same time a bit daring.
The base then comes in very well equipped, with bright and dark woods, amber, light, slightly powdery musk, and pleasantly balsamic notes reminiscent of dark, spicy chocolate.
The longer the fragrance is on the skin, the more intertwined the individual notes become. A dense fabric forms before the nose, very durable, with good projection. And it seems to have a kind of "double bottom," a depth that holds the other aromas while simultaneously producing its own. Patchouli!?... Myrrh?! Gujak?!... it never becomes banal or boring. Until the scent slowly fades away, still dense, but gradually weakening.
An interesting aura lingers!
