Adult coconut in an extravagant bottle!
I wanted to try this rather lesser-known fragrance by Lattafa, whose DNA seemed like it might suit me - except for the coconut, which made me hesitate for the time being. So although I'm not a big fan of coconut fragrances, I was surprised to find that it was so beautifully crafted here that I enjoyed having a bubble of scent around me at all times.
This is one aspect that absolutely speaks in favor of this fragrance: the longevity is very strong, at least 8, if not 10 hours. After three hours of good performance, the sillage softens to a more dignified one, although it becomes stronger if you apply it properly with 8-10 sprays. The opening is briefly a little alcoholic (I've only had it for a few days, maybe it will settle), but after that the dry coconut in combination with the sweetness of the caramel is what characterizes the entire course.
I also find it not too feminine, which many people feared, as it works with floral notes. It's wonderful to wear as a man because it balances the floral with spicy and harsher notes; cardamom and vetiver help to keep the whole fragrance unisex. You have to want to smell coconut, of course, but provided you do, Antique is a great and rather special scent that, like most other fragrances, I don't compare to any of the more famous ones it claims to mimic. The quality is great, the flanker is unique, if unusual, and the fragrance has a lot to offer in terms of facets and appearance. A recommendation!
