Why is it so little appreciated?
I stumbled upon a nearly forgotten fragrance while rummaging through my "spices."
Of course, I had to check immediately whether I a) had recorded it, b) had categorized it, c) had briefly described it, and d) had commented on it. Now I see that this quite appealing "Michalski" scores significantly lower here than my nose perceives it.
Indeed, it is nothing absolutely new and also not a widely spread "mainstream" scent that one could smell at "every corner." It is neither a "typical drugstore scent" nor a "niche."
For me, it stands somewhere in between. It has a distinctly spicy-woody, at times smoky character and is neither too "thin" nor too "thick." The longevity is quite durable, the sillage well noticeable, not too much or too little. Its top notes are "warm-fresh" due to the citrus fruits, which then later transitions into a slightly peppery, smoky spiciness and after about 6 hours softly ends in a powerful-woody, gently sweet-balsamic, and "leathery"-earthy presence, without completely pushing the "top notes" into the background. Therefore, I am quite surprised and a bit disappointed that this "Berlin III" receives so little attention. For me, it is definitely worth this review to possibly pique the curiosity of other fragrance lovers. There are certainly much "worse" perfumes even in the higher price segment!
