You can't blame it for its name
What do I imagine when I think of a fragrance named "Denim"? Durability, sturdiness, work, rough fabric.
What do I get? Flowers, white and sweet, overwhelming abundance with a hint of sandalwood, a giant bouquet of it!
These flowers are incredibly present right from the start; one spray too many and the entire office staff is gasping for air! This incredible floral load knocks you off your feet. Neroli, tuberose, and also ylang-ylang (yes, I know they are not white but yellow) are only barely tamed by the pepper. However, I can't explain where my impression of sandalwood comes from, as I don't find the slightest hint of patchouli in the fragrance. Even my least favorite combination of amber and vanilla is extremely subdued, because even after more than 9 hours, "Denim" remains a floral scent for me and only becomes a bit softer with musk and oakmoss.
I can't detect a real scent progression, a striking change; the bouquet from the beginning is also the bouquet at the end, but is that necessarily bad?!
I can only explain the naming through its longevity; otherwise, I have not the slightest idea why the fragrance is called "Denim."

Indigo used to dye jeans smelled like urine because real indigo is made with urine or uric acid. Good thing this one doesn't smell that way! **Trophy+**
