I loved Zerokians latest offering for Creed, so I thought I’d give this twin sister a try.
Starts really fun. No licorice here, some rosemary and cinnamon maybe. Getting gingerbread vibes from it after a while. Warm, ambery, great stuff for the holidays.
My problem with it, after the fun opening, it gets so bloody cloying. It screams and it just won’t shut up. I do recognize the hand of the perfumer but where Zarian has some edgy notes to keep it fun and a bit fresher, this is darker and more repetitive. It’s nothing like any other Amouage and it’s not for me.
