Cacique Renier Perfumes 2020

I have now had a chance to wear Renier Perfume's Cacique on a couple of occasions and thought I'd share my thoughts. I knew I would like Cacique when I was introduced to its perfume pyramid via a post on Instagram a few weeks back. It certainly hasn't disappointed.

I find this extrait de parfum to be quite a complex blend of quality components, with lasting and alternating oud and musk aromas that hang around for an absolute age. At initial application I get hits of juniper and patchouli and, although it is listed as a base note, I get transient whiffs of the burnt caramel quite early on but find they soon shy away as the oud notes expand and become more prominent.

Longevity for this on my skin is absolutely immense. I went to bed on the first day I wore Cacique and woke up the next day still able to smell it clearly on my person. Sillage appears to be moderate. I can smell its presence lingering around me almost continually, yet when I asked a socially distanced colleague today if they could catch a waft they said they couldn't.

I'm finding this fragrance enjoyable to wear and the scent is very pleasing. I have convinced myself that I need to pick up a full-sized bottle of this when my sample is done - another bottle to add to my already too large collection!
