This bottle does justice to the beauty it carries inside and has become my favorite among the cozy and intimate fragrances (by Zara) for winter use.
The opening has a smoky accord, which lasts for a few minutes. Afterwards, the sweetness takes over and becomes very velvety with the chocolate note. This will unite with the vanilla and both remain together until the end of the perfume. Without ignoring that its best feature is this sweetness, what I most admired about it is the subtle astringency of the leather. It is even antagonistic to vanilla and this makes it possible to differentiate it, due to its lightness, from other perfumes of the genre.
Many put it in the path of By the Fireplace and I can understand why, but I don't particularly believe that you can compare them.
What happens is that this is the only one known to the public that brings some points (only a few points) similar to the main characteristics of Bohemian Oud. Yet there is an abysmal distance between them. There is definitely nothing that can satisfactorily replace them!
