Vintage Chypre
What can be said about Diaghilev that wasn´t said already... It is definitely a fragrance that polarise opinions. For me is for sure a great vintage chypre, deep and opulent, very well blended, as already Mr. Roja has accustomed us.
For the very first sniff that blows your mind and nose (literally) with a blast of clean bergamot, to the torrent of oakmoss with undertones of light dirty, animalic, musky leather that is intoxicating your olfactory cells, the opening of Diaghilev is truly spectacular. The oakmoss is always there, in different degrees, a constant presence throughout the perfume´s evolution. Floral, spicy-oriental in the dry-down till it fades out as a warm amber-labdanum skin scent.
The perfume has a decent longevity (on my skin) with moderate sillage. Definitely overprized but nevertheless a must try for chypre lovers and not only.
Scent 9/10
Longevity 7/10
Projection 5/10
Sillage 5/10
