The god with the lucky touch

Bacchus, the god of wine, fertility and ecstasy, sits as usual with the gods at the table of Olympus.
The feast, as usual, is standard for Bacchus, he just pours the wine into himself and has a good time with the gods.
In a frenzy, dessert arrives, everyone gets exactly what they want and for Bacchus it's fruit.
His favorite fruit is the apple and peach, perfectly served in bite-sized slices, he raises his glass full of wine, mumbles to the crowd, laughs and drinks it down in one go.
Half his plate already finished and his mouth full of fruit, he shouts loudly "Where's my wine?" after all, he asked for a refill 5 minutes ago.
Annoyed, he reaches for his neighbor's glass and starts to drink, drinks, drinks more, puts it down and puts the glass in the light.
He freezes for a moment and looks at the liquid, starts to grin and downs the last sip of rum.
Louder than before, he shouts in ecstasy "Bring me some more of this deliciousness!"
He jumps up and raises his glass to the crowd, the loud laughter of his friends echoes through Olympus and even Bacchus can no longer hold back his laughter.
His stomach aching with laughter, he sits down and admires his latest discovery, the rum he never tasted and the last pieces of apple and peach.
As full of intoxication as he was, he decided to enjoy the next bites and sips in all their glory.

When I smell the Triumph of Bacchus Extrait de Parfum I get exactly these images in my head, now is there anything else to add?

Yes, there is, in my opinion it is a fragrance to fall in love with.

It lives from the rum, it's like when you open a fresh bottle of rum and you get the sweet alcoholic touch, but NOT unpleasant, quite the opposite.
It's sweet, but not too sweet and slightly smoky... i love it.
The fruits are perfectly balanced, I smell the peach more than the apple, but I think I can smell a corpse of acidity, it rounds off this fragrance so damn well.

The Triumph of Bacchus Extrait de Parfum starts fruity, with a lot of power as the first thing you think WOW, but at the same time how well tuned it is.
You stand out with it, you notice it and anyone wearing it should be aware of that.
In my opinion it is rather masculine (due to this "light" alcoholic touch), but women can and should also rock this fragrance, if YOU like it, wear it!

I have a few words about the drydown, as fruity and sweet as it starts, it stays that way, because the fragrance lives from the top notes.
After a while, the intensity of the sweetness subsides, which gives it all a creaminess, and this vanilla comes in slightly, very slightly and just wants to say "hello"... i can't stop raving about it. :)

About the durability and the bottle, with second and third opinions included, the fragrance lasts 10-15h.
What is there to say about the bottle, not much except that it is a 10/10! :)

The price, on the official website of Argos Fragrances, is the equivalent of US dollars at 317.95€ which is without question, a lot of money.
Is the price justified, I think it is.
If you are willing to pay the price, I have a little tip for you, with the code "CHECKOUT15" (as of today it still works) you can save 15% on your entire order at checkout.
But PLEASE, test it before you regret it. :)

Final words, for me personally the Triumph of Bacchus Extrait de Parfum is a masterpiece and has more than earned my first review here on Parfumo!
I hope I can help people who want to get a better idea of the fragrance with my review.

Hey, how many sprays of the extrait do you use, unfortunately I can hardly smell it after 5 hours.

3-5max sprays are actually enough for me for over 10 hours, try it instead of on the skin with clothes there it should last longer. For me several days :)
I can tell you that you may not notice it yourself anymore, but others around you, just ask the people around you after a few hours :)
