L'Essentiel Rituals 2022

Well, the presentation in the Rituals store is truly unique, I must say.
When I explained to the young woman what kind of scents I prefer, she immediately reached for this still very new fragrance... And without much thought, I bought it.
By the way, this is my first Rituals fragrance.
The first thing I thought... You know this scent direction... But where from?
Rituals calls it their new SPORT line.... For that, it’s actually a bit too warm, but okay.
At home, it hit me like a bolt of lightning.... Chanel Allure Homme... It reminds me exactly of that scent, it’s not a scent twin, but it goes in the same direction.
A tad fresher, with an additional oriental sweetness.
I really like it a lot.
Unfortunately, the sillage is problematic... The fragrance has a rather subtle projection, which I haven't experienced with any other scent so far.
You can smell it on your wrist... And wonder, where are you... And just a few minutes later, with a hand movement, an intense whiff of this fragrance hits your nose.
In my classification, the scent is Spicy/Woody.... Oriental/Fresh & Sweet.
Overall, the fragrance feels very high-quality to me... Luckily, I don’t perceive any synthetic notes.
The bottle intensely reminds me of EISENBERG... just as massive and noble... The spray head is amazing... It bears significant resemblance to the Dior Sauvage line.
It's worth testing.
