perfect winter fragrance DNA with questionable durability

For me, the perfect fragrance DNA for winter if you are looking for a vanilla scent. I mainly perceive vanilla here too. Plus cinnamon and tobacco. However, the tobacco is not as obtrusive as in TF Tobacco Vanilla, for example, and the cinnamon is also rather subtle. The fragrance feels very close to the skin and the longevity is comparatively poor. Of course, this could also be due to my batch. Overall, for me it is a very nice winter fragrance that is more suitable for a relaxed evening on the couch, as it goes under in public. A little tip at the end: try layering it with an oud or amber oil, then the fragrance performs better in my perception without being drowned out by the oil.

I absolutely share your recommendation with the oud fragrance, it pushes Herod into a slightly more masculine "evil" variant - absolutely recommended to try.👍🏼

I've had my Herod for at least 5 years. The durability was already bad back then.
A real shame.
