A short rubbery opening. After that, a spicy carnation with an alluring sweet amber and a creamy sexy musk in the base. Great performance.

RM5 is a beautiful floral amber musk perfume. It is a fantastic addition to any collection. There's no 'rubbery' opening. A gem of a frag!

Strong rubbery opening that softens up after 15-20 minutes, beautiful clean musk afterwards. Atomic performance and definitely no blind buy.

This is a 10/10, stupidly long-lasting fragrance with one of the most addictive smells I've ever sniffed. Unisex sexiness.

Best way to describe it: musky marzipan. Reminds me strongly of the smells from the Middle East that are not Oud-based. Beastly performance.

Elegant, Sensual, Decadente
As the name implies, the nr. 5 by Rosendo Mateu is a floral fragrance with the sweetness of the amber and an alluring musk.
From the beginning, we felt an addictive rubber aroma that protrudes from our skin. The smell is comforting but very light and sensual. Carnation and lily of the valley softens the scent and makes it slightly feminine. However, it is a perfectly unisex perfume that I love to use. The projection is very good and it is a delight to feel the breath of that aroma in the nostrils. Performance is also very good.
One of the best perfumes I've ever wear.

Rare discovery
I have a decant of this , when I smelled this opening of burnt robber or plastic I thought that was the person who did the decant that did something wrong but strangly I was intrigued and it kinda attract me.
The opening is really unique it cools down on your skin after 15-20 minutes and you still gets a spicy fragrance but perceive a little more of the florals and amber that was beautifully in the background.
I didn’t use it that much and wait for prettier days and occasions to wear it but I don’t think I will buy a full bottle of this but I’m happy I smell this because it’s really characteristic and not ordinary and you don’t smell that type of fragrance everyday I will explore it further that is for sure and maybe I will adore it who knows ?

Indescribable beauty (but I'll try!)
Such a beautiful caleidoscope of thousand layers of notes. The prosaic name "Floral, Amber, Sensual Musk" is quite fitting, but not enough to describe this.

It's warm, creamy, fluffy, but also spicy, sharp and even smokey. I definitely smell a pretty pink carnation, but luckily not so much of the lily of the valley. There is a lovely floral sweetness to this that doesn't feel sugary and is blended perfectly into the soft white musk and vanilla. Saffron is the most noticeable spice note. It adds a little sharpness and edge to the composition, but it's very warm and not medicinal like it can be in other fragrances. I think this is what some reviewers find leathery here, saffron can be like that and you have to enjoy it to like this fragrance. And I certainly do. It's like the dreamy musky vanilla fluff needs some grounding saffron to really shine. The rest of the spices remains a mystery - maybe a hint of pepper, a trace of cinnamon or allspice, I'm really not sure.
There is even something woody and roasted in this, all without ever becoming harsh. This perfume masters the art of being spicy without feeling foody, manly, dated, dry or rough. The amber anchors the scent all the way through the final drydown and never turns stale. What's left the next morning is less spicy, more vanillic and powdery, but still magical.

I can't say that this scent reminds me of anything or conjures any pictures in my mind, it's standing on its own feet and my impressions of it change as I smell it. I mean nowadays I have smelled several similar fragrances that came after it, but when I first tried it, it was something completely new. And so far I haven't found a better version of the concept than the original.

Anyways, the whole is more than the sum of its parts and the overall vibe the scent gives me is just warm, feminine elegance. It's very versatile, I would wear it day and night in mild to cold weather. Maybe even on warm nights.

Musky musky musk
Rosendo Mateu 5

Ok, so did nearly a full 180 on this as I was close to not liking it. Seemed a little synthetic as it’s such a unique and different kinda scent. But, with a full wearing, as opposed to just the back of the hand, it worked it’s magic. Lovely musky musky musk scent with hints of florals and musk. Very easy to wear and great performance without being overbearing. A pleasure to wear.

RM5 has a high quality. Smell fabolous. it performance is spectacular.
This perfume is the one that will give you the most compliments. You will arouse attraction from all people around you.
RM5 has a high quality artistic too.

If I had to define the type of aroma. I would define it as sweet, without getting to the gourmand, floral without be femenine, it is unisex, it become mnore masculine in the drydown, musky without be animal.
Well executed and harmonized, high quaulity of ingredients. Something synthetic without being pejorative and Nor make it ordinary.
Long lasting 12 h +, sillage dense, great projection.
