Soir d'Orient Sisley 2015

Of course, the bottle is what captivated me on first sight: the black and gold theme is really eye-catching and I could tell right away from the design on the front that this would be an oriental. I didn't even realize the top was a face. Not being familiar with this brand at all, I did not even think they had god perfumes.

On first blast, I love this spicy rose-geranium combination. It reminds me of Perris' Taif Rose, which I love. There is a lot more spice here, and a synthetic edge similar to Cavalli Oud. The rose is most prominent of all but what I like most about this perfume is that it has a haunting incense which develops on the drydown and makes this perfume more interesting.

The price is high for what you get but with the bottle, I guess it is palatable but I would not call this a niche perfume necessarily, though it could pass for one.

Imagine a night in an oriental luxuous palace: what are you going to wear?
A very elegant outfit and....maybe this fragrance.
Rich, exotic, spicy and well balanced, it's the perfect night scent . In particular, the saffron and frankicense notes give it a touch of mystery and a quite strong character. Anyway, talking about the longevity, we are far from the very strong and intense masterpieces like Ysatis and similar.( 80es are definively gone!)
The black bottle is similar to the Eau du soir 's one. the price is high.

I LOVE this fragance. It is like a more oriental versión of eau du soir. It is more balsámic with the incense and the resins, but with same Green vibe of eau du soir. I have bought It because i found a good offer and because i usually likes It when i tried It on the perfumeríes, but as i already had eau du soir, i am not sure if It was a good purchase because i dont find many difference between both fragances.

The performance is great, as in most fragances of this brand, and the quality of the ingredients is very high, soir d'orient smells very natural.

This perfume is intense but at the same time keeps some of the freshness of eau du soir, so i think It is very versatile, intense for night use but elegant and fresh to wear during the day. I think It is totally unisex.

in this day and age in which rose is in vogue in men´s fragances, this is perfectly usable for men.

Gorgeous Rose/Geranium/Saffron. Well balanced overall, being the patchouli note the last you smell before the fragrance is gone.

A compliment getter if that's your cup of tea. As i see it, a bit unloved for what it has to offer.

Strong performance on skin (+8 hours). Last for more than 12 on clothes. Feel free to spray liberally, it won't overwhelm you.

I can see myself wearing this all year round.

The sillage is almost pure rosebud and its GORGEOUS.

A deep, warm, and enveloping scent that wraps you in a comforting aura. For me, it leans more toward a soft oriental, with slightly sweet, gentle notes that feel elegant and composed. It brings that wonderful, unique sense of embrace that true oriental perfumes provide—subtle yet emotionally resonant. The longevity is good, though the sillage becomes intimate rather quickly, settling close to the skin while still maintaining a quiet, warmly radiant presence.
