Fragrances as a guideline ? Pfff, who needs it...
Sometimes in life, expectations and actual reality are very different diverge.

I don't want to say anything, but let your gaze linger for a moment on the fragrances...take the words: Lapsang-Souchong tea, Russian leather, oud, black amber, patchouli, breuzinho, bakhoor, labdanum, TEMPLE CHRISTMAS very deeply into your consciousness !

What do you think the scent will give you ?

Right, the smoke will drive the PIPI into your eyes,
"Vi Et Armis", on the other hand, is a joke, for a cosy "cuddle evening" with your girlfriend.
You put on "Cardinal" to "make love"
Well...........*NOPE*
If the scent had been called "Dip chocolate cookies in warm tea with honey and orange and lemon in the sauna area", then....... "sigh* well..... then I would have known what I was getting.

But the saying: "What you see is what you get" has never been so far removed from any perfume as it is from this one!

So what do you get ?
A gourmand bomb of the very first order with "orange blossoms", somewhere a slight smoky note has "hidden" itself (but not a normal smoky note, it is somehow like the smell in a sauna land in the relaxation room).......where it comes from is a mystery to me *wink*

The durability is extremely good ( 10 hours + )
The Sillage, on the other hand, is "pleasantly" at one meter without filling rooms.
