Herbal Heritage Voyage...
Being a big fan of guaiac wood, I was quite excited to try this one out but alas… no guaiac wood seems detectable to my nose. Instead I get top notes of bergamot and a hint of ginger, a heart of lavender and rosemary with a little peppermint lurking in the background and a woody base consisting of sandalwood, amber and some vetiver I believe. That’s basically it.
Here’s how it works : Heritage is fresh, light, clean and woody with a shower gel vibe. It has lots of potential that’s unfortunately not really fulfilled. Performance is, well, acceptable but quite moderate.
Would I describe it as a crappy scent ? Honestly no – it may seem a little uninspired, but overall it is enjoyable if you can see past the weak performance and it’s a decent perfume for the price at about €15.
In spite of the “Heritage” name, I presume that this is probably a “sequel” to the original Voyage (and probably not the first at that), which was released in 2006 and which I also own and enjoy very much. If I were to choose or recommend one of these two, I would be pointing my finger at the juicy musky apple freshness of the original that also packs a better performance on me - but Heritage could be an acceptable, slightly more herbal flanker to sit next to the original Voyage for added spring/summer variety in your perfume collection.
