Anthem - Beware, it's biting!
I ordered a Discovery Set from Manos Gerakinis. It came in a beautiful little black box with the fragrances and a handwritten note.
The first impression was definitely positive. Gradually, I tested the fragrances. Except for two, I like all of them well to very well. One of the two that I don't like is Anthem.
This fragrance is extremely biting! It really hurts in the nose. My first thought was: “Turpentine!”.
I wanted to give Anthem a second chance, so my husband graciously agreed to test this fragrance on his wrist. And again, Anthem proved to be extremely biting! This lasted quite a while until it finally calmed down and became softer. I could then perceive some vanilla, amber, and sandalwood, maybe also a bit of musk.

Anthem will definitely NOT be making its way here.

Saffron-oudy rose, with a green-sour-fruity touch thanks to Ro-Ge, rounded out by YY, and a spicy patch base with ambered sandalwood. °°°

Contrasting: Warm saffron-rose geranium sits atop a herb-sweet base. Zesty and rosy, a bit wicked. Strong. Great scent.

Extraordinary scent. Very rare DNA, hardly comparable.
Bitter-lemon fresh, zesty, invigorating.
It blew me away the first time I smelled it.

Perfectly staged rose geranium. Earthy warm spices provide a foundation and pleasant dryness. Opulence without being overwhelming.

Distinct, almost lacquer-like rose with cozy amber warmth & exotic wood melt. This is Amber Aoud! Anthem feels less plush.

Very finely tuned composition, spicy, classically modern.
Hard to describe. Beautiful masculine scent. Definitely has signature potential.

At first, I sense a tavern-like lemon-spice scent. Then pure rose, saffron, and patchouli vibes.

I always wonder if there's something wrong with my bottle.
Extreme dose of saffron that completely knocks out my sense of smell.

The scent notes sound quite interesting, but overall it smells really unpleasant to me, and it doesn't get better over time.

Initially very citrus and rose-dominant, but then it develops into a harmonious, finely tuned scent with warm and spicy notes.
