More Than Lemon Meringue
Lemon meringue but only off the atomizer, on skin it's VERY similar to Xerjoff Uden: a creamy lemon vanilla with a soft woody background. I mean, this came first so it's really the other way around but you know what I mean.
Comparatively, the lemon is less photorealistic but the vanilla is heavier upfront and more creamy. There's no rum accord here but it has a sort of boozy sweetness to it anyway. I also don't notice it going powdery like Uden does. Nevertheless, the performance is obviously worse, with 1.5-2hr moderate projection and 5-6hr longevity. (I get 3-5hr of strong projection and 10-12hr longevity from Uden.) Uden is basically the more complex, better-performing version of this; sometimes you do get what you pay for.
