the opening after u first spray it is quite strong. i use about 6-7 sprays and it on me will last 8-10 hours projecting well throughout. the initial smell is a spice from the pepper, then it drys down to a semi-spicy amber. then it later drys to a vanilla. this is a beautiful smell that i hope doesn’t go mainstream. if you have the chance to buy it. BUY IT. in my collection of nearly 30 designer and niche colognes there is something special about this one. beautiful presentation, amazing smell and performance. i will be repurchasing.
