New love
My latest acquisition: the Paragon from Initio. It's been on my wish list for a long time. Alongside Rehab and Musk Therapy, I now have the complete white line in my collection. Each of these series is worthwhile. Musk Therapy is a bit different, Rehab and Paragon go in a similar direction.
I love white fragrances. Clean, neat fragrances that do justice to this radiant white bottle. Initio creates this twist of cleanliness and sex appeal with this white line. Simply one of my favorite brands in the niche with which you can't go wrong in my opinion and blindbuys are not as dangerous as some other brands. Just extremely pleasing without being too 0815.
Paragon was only moderately successful at first. At least in contrast to the other Initios. It still hovers somewhat under the radar, but also has some fans. You should always form your own opinion as tastes differ. I think this Paragon is simply brilliant, similar to the Rehab. Roughly speaking, these two go in a similar direction.
It's definitely worth the money if you look for a good price on the internet. It's also worth the RRP of €250, but you can get it for less than €180. The packaging and the bottle are quite something and you get nice clean vibes with seductive accents on high quality.
As I said, this Paragon goes roughly in this Rehab direction. If you liked the Rehab, you should definitely try this one. It is by no means a twin, but this clean DNA with this seductive sweetness is also very present. The two also share this beautiful lavender opening. Sage and plum have also been added, which already has a very unique touch and stands out from the mainstream. The fragrance is never too heavy despite this pyramid. On the contrary: this sage-lavender freshness is convincing and is accompanied by plum and a pleasant sweet-woody note. Sandalwood is added in the base, which is already very present in the drydown. I hardly notice any or almost no oud, which doesn't bother me. All in all, a fragrance that convinces me 100% and is simply totally interesting and unique. It's already a new love for me. There are also plenty of ways to wear it. Almost always: all year round and for all occasions. Also 100% unisex for me, similar to the Rehab.
Performance is outstanding for a fresher, cleaner fragrance. Double digits with a pleasant and good sillage. Perfect and satisfying.
All in all, a perfect purchase for me that I will enjoy and would buy again. It's definitely worth a test.
