DesirToxic M. Micallef 2019

I bought a sample first and, to be honest, I wasn't immediately taken with it. After wearing it a few times, I fell under its spell for several reasons:

First of all, I have to agree with everyone here who is talking about the "well" exciting fragrance. I can only confirm it: This fragrance is a quick-change artist! After I had bought the full bottle at a reasonable price, the following association came to me: If the fragrance were a movie character, it would be one of the faceless men from Game Of Thrones (For all those who don't know: The people from Braavos who can change their identity).

It's really incredible: for me, this fragrance starts with a really prominent citrusy, sour blackcurrant that projects really strongly with a subtle woody base. I immediately get fresh shower gel vibes here. The currant then fades after 20-30 minutes, and it remains somewhat citrusy before a pleasant sweetness and spicy cinnamon slowly take over. After 1 hour, the scent suddenly changes completely. It is suddenly no longer the shower gel freshness, but a beautiful, seductive and elegantly spicy-sweet fragrance. Luckily, the sweetness is subtle and not a sweet cotton candy. This makes it super universal and easy to wear for everyone. Towards the end, the tonka sweetness remains with a little patchouli and musk. Unfortunately, it then only projects close to the skin and not as strongly as in the first 3 hours.

This fragrance progression and the high-quality composition in general definitely make it an olfactory delight. The only drawback is the performance. It does last for 7-8 hours on the skin (much longer on clothes). But the DesirToxic unfortunately only projects perceptibly for 5-6 hours. So definitely a few splashes on your clothes too ;) Otherwise, it can be worn every day for any occasion, and I would definitely classify it as unisex. If you can get the fragrance for under 200 euros, I can only recommend going for it, if only for the fantastic (as far as I know) handmade bottle!
