Venus in Furs Hexennacht

This smells like you bought a knock off designer bag that is made with the cheapest plastic leather. Then you spill a packet of spice mix in it and now you have a mish mash of spices with a undertone of plastic. This is a saffron heavy scent and to me, it smelled like a band-aide. That is not everyone's experience with saffron, but it is for me. That band-aide smell combined with the leather and suede notes, just doesn't work. Its smells like pleather. The plastic smell does ease up but it always is lingering in the background. What then develops is this generic spice scent that is slightly warm and sweet. I could not tell you what the spices are, none of them are distinct or interesting. What you are left with is a musky generic spice dry down with a hint of band-aide.

This fragrance does have good projection, it lifted off the skin for a couple of hours after application. It also lasted a long time, about 7 hours on my skin. There are a two sizes available starting at $14 for 5ml oil or parfum extract and $60 for 30ml parfum extract spray. Unfortunately, I would recommend this fragrance even at these very affordable prices.
