Aoud Vanille Mancera 2015

Well, I must admit, is this fragrance has taken a while to convince me properly. A few months ago I left a statement here, in which I claimed that the fragrance smells mainly after the two notes that are found in the title. And in general it is true, it is woody, a good portion of oud comes through and also vanilla was not spared, creating a pleasant, not too sweet, somehow oriental-like mixture. Only with the more frequent use has really struck me, is how much saffron is actually included here. Maybe it's because I love him for the fall and winter, or even for cooler days in the summer, very much - saffron just pleases me.
In terms of durability and sillage, he already comes very close to what some of you Parfumos here call a Beast - in the first hours he radiates for my taste very intense, so I use it quite sparingly, otherwise it becomes too much for me ... And even after eight hours, it's still there. As I said, in summer I find the sweet spice a little overdosed, and also in autumn I belong rather to the careful sprayers - so my flacon will last quite long; price / performance is therefore excellent in my opinion. In summary: I would recommend a try to all those who have nothing against saffron and a certain sweetness through the vanilla.
