Imperium Electimuss 2019 Extrait de Parfum

What a beautiful scent it is! It is strange that nobody talks about it more.
There are lots of vanilla and this scent is about this note. However, it's fresh and flowery more than gourmand.
People compare it to Creed Aventus for men, and I can honestly say that it has the vibe. However, only at the opening. And Imperium is totally unisex, to my mind, whereas I could never see Aventus on a woman.
As the scent develops on the skin, it becomes a little greener, but just a little, just a hint. And the vanilla is present all the time, for me at least. This vanilla reminds me of another popular fragrance – Ani from Nishane. So I would call Imperium a beautiful child of Aventus and Ani. Yet, it is a different scent on its own, and definitely worth trying.
The performance of this scent is perfect. It stays on the skin for hours, it projects, it will stick to clothes. It's really addictive and I would call it one of my favorite discoveries of 2020.

Imperium was the unlimited power conferred upon a person in the Roman Empire.
A person who had to possess the best possible qualities, from an intellectual, relational and strategic point of view.
Someone who went back among others and was able to carry out this task.
This fragrance is actually very impactful with its citrus opening, sparkling, that lasts throughout the evolution but also opens to a floral part that like a frame does nothing but making it even more beautiful.
For those looking for a fresh, impactful and long-lasting fragrance, the perfect solution.

Imperium means absolute power which is a pretty badass name for a fragrance with an opening worthy of praise and a closing that is totally forgettable. The opening is almost like a soda pop you find in niche markets. Its a bubbly citrus and herbal that is refreshing and juicy and also a balance of sweet and spicy. Its an interesting opening and would almost make the fragrance worth the price if it could keep up. But it doesn't. There are so many florals it just smells generic, none of them are distinct and just blend into one another and then into the woody synthetic and scratchy dry down. Its like they put all their effort into the forward end of the fragrance and kinda forgot about how to finish it.

This fragrance has good projection, it creates a nice scent bubble around you. It also lasted 8 hours on my skin. There are a few options available for purchase starting at 3 10mL Travel Sprays for $165, 5 10mL Travel Spray refills for $155, and a 100ml for $250. This is definitely not worth the price, there are thousands of rose fragrances out there, go find one that actually interesting.

People will complain of the unoriginality due to some shared DNA with both Creed Aventus and Nishane Ani. Since I have smelled (and enjoyed) both Aventus and Ani, but don’t own either of them, I find Imperium to be a superb value for the money and a really unique crossover for those who don’t want to pay for Aventus and Ani to layer.

Imperium opens up with bright citruses that stick around and keep it fresh enough to still wear in warmer months. It dries down to a very nice smoky vanilla and woods that never gets too sweet or gourmand. Imperium is just about straight down the middle as far as leaning masculine or feminine. It could be worn easily by anybody.

Imperium is not a heavy projector, but it has staying power and lasts on my skin for 10+ hours. This makes it very appropriate to wear for all occasions.

Electimuss bottles are absolutely beautiful and heavy. The atomizers are also top notch. For a niche fragrance that can be worn year round, contains high quality ingredients, and can be had for less than $150 USD, Imperium is an absolute steal in my opinion.

It's a scent too similar to Nishane's Ani to ignore that fact.
In this case it's sweeter, more ambery and not as citrusy, but similar at the beginning. After a while it can remind you more of the Aventus universe, and I would say more specifically of Hacivat, also by Nishane because it moves away from the famous "smoked pineapple" (I wouldn't call it that, but so you understand me) of the original Aventus line.

Its performance is moderate, inferior to the aforementioned Nishane perfumes that I have.
For me it doesn't offer anything that the thousands of "clones" and "inspirations" on the market can't do, some of which are cheaper, a tenth of the price, in fact.
Yes, logically it has a more refined quality, and it was only missing that it wasn't like that with the prices that Electimuss charges.
