Skin on Skin
S&X, stands for pleasure and sensuality. The smell of skin on skin, as Rankin himself is quoted. It is about greed, desire and merging (at least of two bodies/lovers).

So S&X starts very consciously with animalistic tendencies, with the deep seething of a wonderful "dirty" patch and very dark leather. Angular and uninhibited. The start reminds me a bit of the dark, lustful vibration in Roja's 51 perfume. Wonderful!

After about half an hour, the fragrance finds itself in the phase in which the first greed subsides and the skin warmth of the protagonists takes over. It has a subliminal scent of sun on skin. Of heat. I literally see the little hairs straightening up when the breath or fingers gently caress.

The scent is so beguiling, intense and real, it doesn't matter what chords lead to this effect. And yet for me it has the impression of feminine, unscented skin, as a seductive sweetness resonates with it.

"Just as Rankin captures fleeting desire in an image, Azzi does the same through her scents."

Azzi conjures here the topic sex so divine into a scent and gives it thereby also an artistic, yes, creative depth, that it is increasingly difficult for me to find suitable words, to describe.

The gentle magic of bright musc und tea, which from the fourth hour on shapes the scent, is simply a poem and stands for me for the dreamy cuddling and the artistic dimension of the merging of the souls that resemble the bodies.

Even if the first half hour might be a bit too harsh and up front for some scent lovers, this is an absolute recommendation, when it comes to passion.

The fragrance plays on all levels.

Soul - Body - Mind.

Simultaneously.

Passion in the bottle!

This is how men's fragrances used to smell in the mass market. Today, it's a niche. Resinous, spicy, a hint of animalic, almost no sweetness. I like it!

The woody (patch) and resinous composition with musk and subtle flowers reminds me of classic men's fragrances and pleasantly surprises.

An interesting scent that reveals many facets. From peppery wood and green resins to a warmer, softer, and more human base.

I like it. It feels synthetic, but in a very intriguing way. Did I have this one in the 90s?
