Unknown Pleasures is a gourmand-sweet-citrusy fragrance that melts in your mouth.
Upon spraying, I am immediately surrounded by desserts: lemon cake, lemon pudding, fresh waffles, lemon soufflé, etc.
A worthy competitor to Casamorati Lira, in my eyes even the winner. This one is sweet too, but without the slight cardboardiness of Lira.
The lemon is more distinct and brighter; truly one of my favorite interpretations of lemon so far. Additionally, I get a certain lightness that makes it wearable for me even outside the cold seasons.
The progression is quite simple, as not much happens. Over time, a veil of vanilla envelops the fragrance, making it a bit softer. Surprisingly, the lemon never fades and remains faithfully reminiscent of lemon cake.
As for longevity, it should last throughout the day. I could still perceive it on my wrist after about 18 hours.
While Unknown Pleasures does not receive enthusiasm in every
review, thankfully our perceptions are not all the same :)
