Nikos = Victory of the People (and the perfumer)
Nikos is a Greek designer (although the perfume is French) and until recently, Sculputre was sold here in Europe for the same price as the big brands (it was sold for more than 70 euros but after it was discontinued, the stock is being sold for a ridiculous price, less than 15 euros).
Regarding the scent, it reminds me of a mix of peace and love. I think this perfume could be sold as unisex. It is citrusy, floral white, green, slightly sweet. It's a very intimate perfume but it projects very well, because whenever there's a breeze you feel it.
At times it reminds me of Montale's Wood & Spices. The opening is much more citrusy but it is in the evolution and dry down that I find the similarities (it becomes more woody).
I consider it a great option for day use, social and formal events, warm and mild climates. For those who like this construction, you can buy it blindly, I guarantee you will have no regrets (especially because the price is very nice).
I confess that I first found the aroma strange, but now I consider it a great perfume. I think the bottle is very beautiful, despite the cap not being the best.

This is an orange blossom bomb. If you like this one you should try God 's Night flanker, another hidden gem.

Just a side note. The fragrance is not discontinued. Like many other classic fragrances, the brands, at some point, put them only on their websites or in very few retail stores. Boss number One, this one, Minotaure, Joop! Home, Burberry London, Lolita Lempicka fragrances, are just a few examples of fragrances that are only sold (or almost) online and for a very affordable prices, because they don't have marketing or retailers to pay and the production's cost is very low.

For me, this perfume is a case of similar to many and equal to none. I look at it as a neroli and tonka combo. The closest resemblance I recall is Altamir by Ted Lapidus which is a fragrance I highly praise. Even if I do like the bottle shape, it turns out to be my biggest objection. It can hardly stand up :-)
