Classy Incense
Wow! Was really impressed with Derviche II. Opens with a sweet, fruity scent that quickly gives way to very nice smoky incense. The incense here is reserved and balanced, with the lingering fruit, vanilla and musk rounding it out. Didn't get much of a herb-y note. I can't stress enough that it's very balanced and not in your face. Earlier this year, I tested Zaharoff's Signature Extreme which I liked and was planning on buying a FB. After testing Derviche II, I will go with it instead of Signature Extreme. Derviche II is just a much better quality incense fragrance. Longevity was very good - at 10 hours it was still a pretty strong skin scent. Projection was great for the first few hours. A definite winner by Manuel Cross.
Note that Derviche and Derviche II are completely different fragrances, not alike in any way.
