'Clean' leather
Esquive is a leather interpretation with loads of musk. A number of variations of the musk-leather accord appear throughout the scent's lifespan. The musks chosen are of the 'clean' type, no animalics galore here.
The opening experience - to my nose - is like entering a textile workshop. Persian carpets, drycleaner musks, linnen fibers in the air. This develops into a soft leather scent. It feels warm, earthy, creamy, close to suede. In the end there is a dark brown ambrette/patchouli base.
Several stages in this show; none of which are really exciting. It all remains on the clean, gentle side. Performance is spot-on. A moderate projection that is stable for hours.
In conclusion: A bit underwhelmed. Not going to wear again.
