Something different for warm weather
I received free samples of Precious Liquid's Sangria Oak and Blue Agave with a perfume order. My experience with Blue Agave wasn't positive (see my review) but Sangria Oak is completely different. In summary - if you want something different for summer that isn't citrusy and isn't blue/aquatic, Sangria Oak is for you. Overall, a very positive experience with Sangria Oak.
Sangria Oak's opening has a subtle touch of citrus but that lasts maybe about 5 minutes. It evolves into an oak/boozy/wine/fruity fragrance, in that order of predominance. The oak (wood) component makes it masculine but it isn't sharp or sour. The fruity accord is like a mix of pear, peaches, apples, etc., not a mix of citrus fruits. There is a touch of sweetness to the fragrance that is at about the upper limit of what I find acceptable. (In general, I don't care for very sweet perfumes.) The sweetness pulls it all together and makes it fresh overall, perfect for warm to hot days in summer, spring or fall. I suspect Sangria Oak would be less successful in winter.
Performance is excellent. Sillage and projection are good for the first 1 to 2 hours, however longevity is very good. I still had a very strong skin scent after 12 hours.
The only negative for Sangria Oak is its price - lists at $275 for 75ml. I've seen it at a discounter on sale for around $240.
