8 cylinder

Today I was once again in car showrooms around, because I love shiny bodies and good mature engines.

Again and again it pulls me to the "star", my friends may find that also stuffy, but these Töff Töffs always stood me faithfully to the side.
Solid with a touch of conservism.

I like to laugh along when I'm asked with a sting whether I've been back to the " pensioners' meeting ".
But under the stylish sheet metal dresses slumber often pithy engines.
Matching the ambience I wore Esencia - a fragrance that also has a wide chest under his well cut suit.

Of course it's clearly a men's fragrance, but sometimes "I get carried away" by it too
It initially looks old school, with lavender and the green notes, then creates a soft twist through the flowery parts, then sweeping out the wild catch with tart oak moss and juniper berry.
To become automotive again - under this classic sheet metal dress an 8 cylinder tubes.
Surprised faces, if one overtakes so motorized casually the other road users.

An understatement scent - for the fast lane.

Great drydown

The opening it's not very good, but after that, with the drydown, get better, a lot better.

It's a old school smell but i think that is acceptable.

PROS:
- Last a lot and projects well
- Not popular
- A old school with nice drydown.
- A quality fragrance
- Elegant

CONS:
- Someone can think that is grandpa smell
- Can be offensive if over apply

It's a nice acquisition for a collector or for someone what looking for a good alternative to the formal - old school scents out there.

If it's your case, try it.

Regards.

A potpourri of herbs, citrus, flowers and spices

As you can already see from the fragrance pyramid, the nose is properly put to the test with the Esencia Eau de Toilette. I personally find the fragrance really good, exciting and very masculine. My best friend finds this too "old-fashioned". The durability is relatively good on my skin with 5-7 hours. The sillage, however, I find rather weak, because after 3-4 hours the whole thing already seems quite close to the skin and I was asked if I wear times no fragrance on me. Compliments remained so logically out.

The top note rattles neatly with a wild combination of herbs, citrus, flowers and spices. It smells green and herbal tarragon, anise and juniper berries. Bergamot, petitgrain and lemons bring a citrus twist to the scent. Galbanum provides resinous and woodsy aromas. Heart notes remain herbal thanks to clary sage and basil. Pine needles underpin the resinousness. Lavender, lily of the valley, jasmine flowers, nerolI as well as rose geranium provide a subtle florality. In the base, nutmeg brings a spiciness to the scent. It also smells a bit leathery, earthy and woody thanks to patchouli, oakmoss, sandalwood, vetiver as well as amber. Firs and cedars make me think of a walk in the woods. In the background, I even detect a certain incense note.

Who stands on herbs, forest, citrus as well as flowers with a slightly aquatic fresh kick, which should try the Esencia Eau de Toilette times. Exciting!

Fantastic green fragrance

I discovered this fantastic fougere a few months ago thanks to Scents of South Jersey on YouTube.

For fans of old-school green fragrances like myself, Esencia is a dumb reach, especially in Spring. The pine tree needles note in this one is just outstanding throughout. It is often compared to Polo Green, Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, and Jaguar For Men, but its dry-down is much more subtle with just the right amount of oakmoss, no soapiness, and dare I say, it's just classier overall.

Masculinity Level: Tom Berenger in Sniper, spending weeks in the forest getting his job done without ever actually getting dirty.

Esencia Loewe pour homme

Born in the 80's, but its soul lives in the 70's! Huge powerful frag that is awesome if you dig Polo Green, Quorum or other chypre/leather/fougere cousins from the era.

A massive, in your face, rainbow of green wet forest, smoke, and leather. Extremely masculine and present with a projection sillage that may redefine "vapor trail".

Put on your flannel, find an axe and splash away!
