Sometimes more would indeed be more...

This is the third, no, the fourth comment on a little-noticed fragrance.
And honestly, I am not surprised. Not because this fragrance is bad, no, I find it at least well-made and quite pleasant.

Unique starts with tart, sour blackcurrant and spicy cardamom; I also perceive a slightly bitter-smoky note, which could well be the elemi resin. Jasmine and orange blossom, the latter quite pronounced, join in as soon as the blackcurrant has faded, and ylang-ylang adds warmth.
Then it becomes spicy and very woody. Clear cedar and warm sandalwood. Vanilla is only present in a rudimentary way. A hint of iris, really just a hint, makes it all a bit more powdery, so at least the color of the perfume fits.
The name, on the other hand, does not fit - unique is this fragrance not. A little citrus added, and one could believe they have a typical fleeting unisex summer cologne on their arm.
This fragrance behaves like a cologne as well, very fleeting, and with extremely little sillage. It’s a shame because, as I said, it is harmoniously and solidly composed, but since it hardly knocks anyone off their feet, no one knows it - you simply don’t remember it.
A bit more expressive would have been nice, or simply a bit stronger, more of everything.

Sans Soucis should probably stick to decorative cosmetics...
