What a nice surprise
I am a big fan of Frankincense so when I knew that Jacques Fath came with a new creation, I had to try it.
The Story goes that Rania Naim, Creative Director discovered Copal Blanc in Mexico which was used also by Mayans and Aztecs, and she loved it. The perfumer behind it is the famous Jean-Christophe Hérault who gave us the Aventus, so I have high hopes for the scent.
There is also a piny note from the mastic, smelling similar to the Greek liqueur, in the lines of liqorice which I am not a big fan of.
This smells fresh, playful and great for a day at the Mediterranean, with sun and waves. It smells rich and complex. On the skin smells nicer than on the clothes and in dry-down reminds me of a Prada Infusion Cedre, maybe from the Mastic and Orris concrete.
Reminds me of: Nothing really, is a very nicely done incense scent
Longevity / Silage: A true beast, lasts very long 8+ on skin, 24h clothes
Versatility: Very nice and likeable scent, anywhere, everywhere. With a white shirt and jeans, rather than with smart casual clothes.
Seasons: It will shine in the warmer months.
Score: 9 / 10 – If you love complex scents, this is for you. The scent DNA is quite unique, it´s well blended and lasts very long.

Excellent and accurate a review. It is most certainly an interesting scent, changes several times after being put on. Will write a review myself soon.
