So many acquaintances here!
When I get a new fragrance pack from a dear perfumer, I always have to sniff all the sample bottles right after opening to get a first impression of the fragrance. So it is here. But what is that? This all smells very well known.
When I sprayed it on, my first suspicion was confirmed and I even added someone I know and appreciate very much. I don't smell the notes I see listed here in the pyramid at all, but if I read one or the other comment here, I'm probably not alone with it
Oud? I don't find it here. In the beginning maybe a little bit, but that has nothing to do with the oud, what I know otherwise. Leather? No, right? So I can't sniff out leather with the best will in the world.
What I perceive at the very beginning is a touch of Méchant Loup from L'Artisan. This is one of my favourite men's fragrances at all, as it skilfully plays with the theme of gourmand notes without making the fragrance too sweet. For my taste, too sweet delicacies should rather be reserved for women. It doesn't seem right for a man. This one also gets a similarly good curve, whereby I would clearly classify it as unisex and not as men's fragrance. This one smells delicious on women
Later on, other good acquaintances, such as Bonds I Love New York for All or the almost identically scented Mousee au Café by Maison des Reves, report. Both coffee-vanilla scents, whereby neither coffee nor vanilla nor the previously perceived nut are contained in the Oud Save the King. Is my nose broken now? I don't know, I don't know. But that's how the Atkinsons smells to me.
The only note I find in the list, and which I actually smell, is the iris. I guess times that takes him the sweetness a little what gives him his authority to be classified as men scent.
In short, it's beautiful, does NOT smell like oud, has gourmands and is easy to wear for both sexes. Anyone who already owns one of the above-mentioned ones could find another purchase candidate here or - like me - doesn't need it here.
