God-Tier fragrance, crap bottle
I adore this fragrance. Beautiful strong amber that lasts all day, and has a brilliant photorealistic dryness, a sandpaper rub, that never stops sitting. The fragrance is strong but wearable year round in my opinion as long as you're a bit interesting and not a clone. Au coeur de desert may not be as deserty as some extremely niche offerings (I would love some civet or birch tar for example) but outside of Ensars and PRINs and other multimillionaire fragrances, this is among the best 165 USD can buy.
One knock against it is the atomizer sucks... it needs to be manually put back up after each spray making 3-10 spray applications near impossible. Also it has a very bad sillage prob 6 or 4. not sure where you guys get the longevity from.. it is weak for me. Not 2# Nota di Viaggio (Shukran…) or Baie 19 Eau de Parfum or Room Service weak but certainly no Musc Ravageur Eau de Parfum or The Lover's Tale or Unutamam or Mandodari either. It's mainstream niche but it's good.
