Herod Parfums de Marly 2012

Which scents are perceived the most ?
If I am completely honest, Herod is a crass orchestra of many different impressive scents.
At the beginning cinnamon and pepper come through very strongly and you can already see in which direction winter is heading here! After the cinnamon and pepper have calmed down a bit, the soft sweet base comes out. Consisting of vanilla, woods and the high-quality tobacco, it provides a warm and really complex scent. Don't be put off by the incense, no it doesn't smell like a service to me at all and I personally can only guess the incense if I concentrate on it.

Herod is just at the beginning a powerful and room filling fragrance, a small explosion. After the bang you are rewarded with a sweet oriental elegance. He can be worn with everything in the cold seasons, I personally only take hold of him when I am nicely dressed.
But it is suitable for everyday use and is very popular, which can be seen especially in the rating here on Parfumo. Nevertheless, it is far away from all the mainstream winter scents that you can sniff at the blue D.
Herod is a STALLION! through and through, an absolute perfume art
For one beginner in perfume, it might be too much of a good thing at first. Give it time, wear it a few times on colder windy and rainy days and you will discover the magic of Herod.

I don't need to say too much about the bottle. ...you could hit someone with the cap alone. Who needs weapons when you've got a Herod flask? I find the packaging of PdM very simple but to the point, because it reminds me of a pinstripe suit. On the packaging you can already see which league this is in - Champions League!

Herod is not in any fragrance for me, he is very high up in the cold year scents, all designers can leave their horses in the stable, because nobody can get near such a powerful steed like Herod! Herod is not just any horse, he is a black thoroughbred Arabian horse, the best of his kind
The Sillage as already mentioned above is a PUNCH, the durability is a tireless horse lung. 14h are no problem for me on my skin.
The next morning, breathe on your wrist and the steed is ready to go into battle with you. Herod does not leave his knight's side and even after his fall he stands on the bad field and spreads devastating hoof prints!
