With this fragrance, you definitely make a statement. The composition is so skillfully crafted that you can hardly dissect it or want to. The heavy rose is immediately noticeable. Many perceive a gum note, which I can understand, but it reminds me more of my motorcycle tires when they've been nicely heated up. But in a refined way.
There is always an unobtrusive sweetness present, and overall, the scent is not too heavy since it has a lovely musky freshness, yet it is very expressive. It adapts so well to the wearer that it is absolutely unisex. However, the dress code "Smart Casual" is the absolute minimum. The upper limits are open, and it fits perfectly even for "White Tie".
The performance is superb. Although I only tried a single spray, my wife could smell it 4 meters behind me, and even 8 hours later in the car next to me.
Absolutely not a daily banger. On dates, only if you know that the other person likes it, as some people absolutely cannot stand it, and that must be kept in mind.
