Corpalium's opening reminded me immediately of unwashed hair. It's at this point that there is some sort of projection. As it quickly dries down (after about 15 minutes) it loses its projection and the woody/earthy aspects become more prominent. I did notice Fenugreek, but it's very subdued and subtle. Corpalium took on less of a hair smell and more of a skin or body smell. Not body odor, just the earthy type of smell of someone at the end of the day not wearing any scented product.
Corpalium is a curiosity - something that was interesting to sample but not something I'd bother with anymore. Guys looking for a skin/body scent type of fragrance would be better off with the Signature Royale line from Zaharoff (Signature Royale X, Royale XXX and Royale XXXL). They each offer more in a fragrance and emphasize slightly different accords.
You beat me to it! I was going to say the exact same thing in my review of Poudrextase, my final Marlou sample I'm wearing today. My expectations were based on the reviews and the brand's reputation but overall totally disappointing brand.
