Sweet, resinous, and good!

Since I was just asked via PM for an assessment of this fragrance, I thought I would take the opportunity to leave a comment. ;-)
I not only love perfumes and essential oils, but I also enjoy incense, and my engagement with incense materials of all kinds led me a few years ago to buy my first Parfume Noire fragrance, Styrax Origin. And it convinced me from the very beginning - however, Styrax is also one of my favorite incense materials, so it wasn't too difficult... Styrax Origin smells like the incense material Styrax or Benzoin: sweet, warm, and pleasantly resinous; a true cozy feel-good relaxation scent (at least for me). I can't detect amber, but it probably contributes to the balsamic overall impression of the perfume. One shouldn't expect a great scent development; the perfume smells almost the same shortly after application as it does several hours later.
I originally only wore it at Gothic parties, but nowadays I also use it occasionally in everyday life, as I simply have too many "dark folk perfumes" to wear them only for going out - and the scent is far too precious to just stand around!
Finally, it should be mentioned that the longevity is quite good, while the sillage could be a bit stronger for my taste.
