Wild Cat M. Asam 2014

~ Inspiration ~
I received a generous sample in a swap. Before that, I was unfamiliar with both the brand and the perfume.

~ Bottle ~
The brown bottle with a leopard pattern is designed to match the name.

~ Scent ~
I perceive grapefruit at the beginning (if at all) only very briefly. Lush jasmine blossoms with delicious almond milk and pralines form an oriental-gourmand heart. Warm sandalwood, tonka beans, and creamy vanilla gently and somewhat dryly round it off.

~ Longevity ~
On my skin, it lasts about 7-8 hours (a bit longer on clothing and hair). 1-2 sprays are sufficient; otherwise, it becomes too cloying and a bit scratchy in my throat.

~ Occasion ~
It fits well into the cooler days and evenings of autumn and winter. When dosed lightly, it's also suitable for the office.

~ Conclusion ~
To me, it smells very much like "Manifesto" by YSL!
I find it somewhat spicy, but I can't explain where this impression comes from...
