This is my first review and you should know, I am not a “I-smell-my-wrist-and-can-tell-you-every-note-of-a-fragrance-from-top-to-bottom-girl” (“How many hyphens should there be?” … Sarah: “Yes!”). I just try to describe what my nose perceives in some way.
So, now to the scent. I had a little bit of the fragrance decanted to test it because I was immediately drawn to the fragrance pyramid.
So, a spritz on the mentioned wrist and off we go. The first thing that positively popped into my head was: FINALLY! Finally one with leather that doesn’t immediately turn my wrist into a muscular hairy man’s arm, as I unfortunately feel that this is always the case for me when leather is involved…
Continuing on. I can immediately smell the strawberry. Not a squeaky, synthetic, overly sweet strawberry, no, very delicate, delicious without excessive sweetness. The caramel joins in and together with the strawberry, it’s a true feast. I personally don’t smell the rose at all.
In the dry down, there are very subtle vanilla notes that are still noticeable until the end. The oud also comes through but only in a way that intensifies the fragrance a bit and doesn’t disturb at all.
I would clearly rate the sillage 10/10. The spritz on my sweater lasted until the next day and the scent is still noticeable on my wrist after 8-10 hours.
