Spicy gourmand for all
Be aware that on a blotter it smells different re. on the skin: while in the first smells flat, on the skin smells complex.
As to the second option, I can clearly notice the cardamom and the black pepper on the top notes; they morph into flowery notes that feel somehow akin to the way citrics smell to the nose, I would describe this as an "acute" feeling that is opposite to balmy descriptors.
As to the pyramid, this should be the violet, but it is not so if I take as a reference violets in Grey Flannel or Lalique's Hommage a L'Hommme; I'd rather say it smells or feels like the notes in common between Dior's Sauvage and Armani's Code, a woody molecule that is somehow screetchy.
The base notes lead to gourmand territory, unknown to my nose - I can describe it in a generic way, that would be a spicy chocolate, in my imagination, mole poblano (a chocolate soup with chili).
It is not elegant, subdued, discreet, classy; rather strong and bold, as a matter of fact, it reminds me a lot of Axe's Dark Temptation or Axe Oud and Vanilla. Not a bad thing at all, as a matter of fact, it would be my choice in really cold weather days provided it is applied with discretion.
An excelent alternative if looking after a value for money for those into no-frills contemporary kind of scents.
