As restrained as a jackhammer in a library

I know that many will hate me now and it borders on blasphemy if I criticize the Number One and therefore holy cow! But that's the way it is with reviews - they are always personal and subjective! As for the fragrance itself, it starts off sweet, high-quality and rather heavy, I actually always find tonka bean great in perfumes because it is so multi-layered and that's where my first two problems with this perfume lie. Tonka bean is the higher quality and more subtle vanilla, tonka and vanilla packed together at the start is "too much" and above all too heavy for my personal taste. After 30 minutes I continue to smell a lot of vanilla and additional sugar, probably the honey and sweet cinnamon again, only after 1 hour it becomes somewhat fruity and freshly tart, probably the bergamot and lemon. Conclusion: Very heavy, for me unfortunately too heavy, sweet high-quality fragrance, for me personally also a tick too feminine, too little fresh and too vanilla annoying. As I said, it's all subjective, but it is very well received by outsiders and the sillage and longevity are extremely good and above average! Personally, I also think the price is too high for 50-,€ to 100-,€!
