Good, even interesting but overpriced for what it offers
So, the bottle I have is original and new. Thus, not much air had time to get in the bottle.
I recognize the smell, but I don't know from which perfume. Almost candy like.
Smells like 'the new summer perfume' smell from perfume shops.
Notes: I don't know. When I spray it on skin, the first few seconds/ minute there's a predominantly flowery smell, that fights with something dusty and in direct contrast. It reminds me of surgical gloves latex or balloons/ powdery smell (almost drug store/ pharmacy kind of mixed smell) . After the minute is gone, the latex gloves smell is strongest, and if I put my nose close to the spraying point, the flowers smell like a garden filled with field/ prairie flowers (really nice) .
Projection is around 1 meter. So OK for office.
It doesn't last too long (around 4 h on skin, without sweating on or washing the area) and I feel it's a weird way of mixing notes. Both linger the same amount, but as I said, depending on the distance, it may smell different- and it becomes a 1 Note then, 1D.
It leans feminine- heavily feminine.
Only men in their early 20' s can wear it, in my opinion.
Bottle is nice, but the cap is really plasticky (light) - although quality injection.
I let it sit, for it to 'macerate ' , and hope it becomes what people here praise it to be.
Tough call.
Update as of today May the 18th:
Not worth the money. Club de Nuit by Armaf EDT performance (silage and strength) , with a 1D Effect smell, whilst it's EDP.
When sweating, because of walking, ect. , first note flies by in a few minutes and then it stays as a faint 1D shy smell.
It's too expensive for what it is.
I adjusted my score accordingly It can be layered really well with Super Cedar from Byredo. Right now I don' t know which is the best to be the first spray and which the second, and if it' s just the Cedar that makes a difference, but it adds a bit of complexity. Both just as light weight (as far as strength) and it seem they complement each other (for my nose at least) .
Now, seeing you pay close to 220+ to make an OK, somewhat interesting, smell, I still wouldn't say go and buy it just for that.
