You'll Love It!
Delphinus is an incredible fragrance from Creed. First, in the interest of full disclosure, I am a card-carrying member of "The Creed Breed". I love most of Creed's fragrances. Millesime Imperial was my first Creed purchase and remains one of my top 5 favorites. I delayed purchasing Delphinus last year and opted for it's release partner Centaurus first. I love that too, but I'll save my comments for another review. I pulled the trigger of the Delphinus purchase a few weeks ago, and WOW!!! This juice is FAN-FREAKIN-TASIC!!! Like Centaurus it's an amber based offering, but while the former is very spicy and smoky, Delphinus is smooth and smoldering. It is definitely unisex but not as feminine leaning to my nose as I've heard some say. In the opening you get a fruity, spicy heavy dose of incense that fades quickly. The opening could be overwhelming if it lasted longer but it gives way to it's sweeter, more gourmand leaning character. I really like this stuff, no, I love this stuff. It's got excellent sillage, and pretty good longevity as well. My first wearing, I got 6 yes 6 compliments and all from strangers. All that said, this stuff is more expensive than it needs to be so don't pay retail, and don't blind buy. Get a sample, get a spray, get a sniff...you'll buy it.
