Unique!!
Probably my favourite scent from Ex Nihilo. I first tried it in a very hot weather, and even then it felt amazing. I would say that it's gourmand type, but at the same time not really: it's very sweet and bold, has a lot of incense and spices. But i also feel a lot of milky notes that make it very creamy. Longevity is insane. It's enough to wear only one spray.

Fève délicieux version orientale
discovered Today thanks to a sample I wanted to complete my discovery of this range after the disappointments amber sky and midnight special.

rather a good surprise, it's a delicious and sweet perfume but with oriental notes, I have the impression of smelling honey almonf licorice and orange blossom from a cake just out of the oven.

It reminds me of Dior Privé Fève Delicious and Jo Malone Mirrhe and Tonka, but while being different thanks to these oriental touches.

a pleasant perfume favored perhaps for the Introduction to perfume for children or a grandpa cake.

ideal for winter thanks to its enormous silla and its hold which lasts 12 hours.

it will probably end up in my son's collection.

A Successful Attempt!
I dedicate my second comment on this platform to this wonderful fragrance :)

The scent was shown to me by my brother-in-law back when I was, as always, on the hunt for an extraordinary fragrance that not everyone wears. (That is no longer the case) And like many other exclusive scents, I discovered this wonderful fragrance at Oberpollinger.

After testing most of the fragrances in the days prior, I had now arrived in the Ex Nihilo section. I tested a few scents but wasn't really impressed and thought to myself: well, whatever, let's move on to the next section, I probably won't find a fragrance I like here anyway. Suddenly, my brother-in-law came along and said: here, try this one, "Atlas Fever," you'll surely like it! Said and done!

Before I tested the fragrance, I was first captivated by the bottle! In my opinion, it looks very elegant and is a real eye-catcher. This is probably also because I generally like the color combination of gold and black so much :)

The moment of truth had arrived. I sprayed a bit on a test strip and waited a moment before smelling it. My first thought: wow, it doesn't smell bad! I don't know many fragrances that smell like this one!

I first noticed a somewhat strong pepper note that stands out but is by no means overpowering. After a few minutes, the pepper note is not as strong anymore and I find it very pleasant. By the way, this pepper note is really noticeable to me throughout the time I wear the fragrance. At the same time, a smoky-woody note also emerged, which was very pleasant and gives the fragrance a certain spiciness. The tonka bean adds a kick to the mix and makes an appearance now and then. A truly special scent. Everything together harmonizes really well, and all in all, I think it's a very successful fragrance.

What I sometimes find mysterious about this fragrance is that it appears and disappears at times. It comes and goes whenever it wants :) at least that's how it is for me. However, I have also experienced it being present all day long, and I could perceive it perfectly! In general, the fragrance lasts for me when I apply it in the morning until the evening. The people around me also perceive the scent very well. I think it's a good and successful fragrance; it hasn't disappointed me so far.

Genius Tonka Bean, refined with floral/peppery vanilla
Atlas Fever is a fragrance that captivated me from the very beginning.
I admit that I find the brand Ex Nihilo great anyway, and this scent, wow.

The fragrance starts for me directly with a sweet component.
At first, I thought:
"Wow, a gourmand and beautifully creamy"
The tonka bean from the base feels totally soft, sweet, and harmonizes wonderfully with the vanilla.
I perceive these two accords right from the opening.

After a few seconds, I notice the peppery notes. It feels like the sweet components have been refined/topped with a bit of pepper.
Additionally, a certain floral quality comes to the fore.
A veil of incense is subtly present.

The fragrance definitely has a woody character, but a certain sweetness remains. The tonka bean works really well here.

I find the longevity and sillage to be really good.

Favorite Scent of Wood
I really like this scent. It is beautifully crafted. I liked it from the very first breath. It smells of wood and vanilla, but the vanilla is not overly sweet, rather very pleasant. It seems to me that the fragrance has no sillage. It sits close to the skin, but it doesn't bother me because I can't stop inhaling it. I have tried many woody scents, but this one is the best. It is not like all the others I have tried.
The price is high, but this fragrance is truly worth the money.

Woodiness, some warm spices, a slightly sweet & floral base. Note blend works, but something in the base smells off. Leans fem, non-summer.

A rather linear, creamy and sweet oriental-woody Winter fragrance, balanced by a gentle bright spicy opening. Good performance. 100% Unisex!

Sweet and smooth vanilla-tonka blend with minimal evolution. Pleasant and easy to wear, but lacks depth for its high price.

At first, it’s nicely spicy and daffodil comes through, but then the scent becomes milky-creamy and oddly sweet for my taste.

Tonka takes over everything else in no time and is left alone on the wood lot.

Dreamy smoky peppery Tonka vanilla sweet//creamy sandalwood - you have to be able to handle it. If modern/sweet, then like this.

Peppered, soft + (incense) smoky wood is the star. Accents of delicate flowers + tonka bean. Dark, sweet, velvety, creamy, cozy.

An unconventional gourmand that stands out; frankincense, vanilla, and tonka bean create a haven of madness.. It chooses its wearer.
