... a man dressed in black jeans, a black shirt with the first four buttons undone, black lace-up shoes, and a slightly worn black leather jacket walks towards a bar. His chest hair spills out from the shirt. He enters the bar. As he steps inside, everyone looks at him. With his three-day stubble, he has a dark gaze. He seems like a guy you shouldn’t mess with. He looks around, finds his friends, and smiles at them with his snow-white teeth, appearing charmingly charismatic.
Upon applying this fragrance, the first thing that hits the nose is a spicy sharp note with a hint of sweetness. It further blends with spicy and woody accords underneath. The caramel adds even more sweetness. Additional woody accents join in, as well as vanilla, which is rather discreet. The oud makes this scent a bit spicier, adding a dark daring element and a masculine note. A light, beautiful smoky accord surrounds the fragrance the whole time, even though it’s not listed in the perfume pyramid.
The longevity and sillage are very good.
Here we have a fragrance that is launched as unisex. However, due to its dark, smoky, masculine accent, I see it more suited for men. This perfume feels very mature to my nose and is, for me, only suitable from around 25 years old. But we know, wear what you like. It certainly prefers the cold days to showcase its strengths. However, it can also be worn in spring and summer, except on very hot days. During the day, I would apply this scent very discreetly at the office, while having coffee, shopping, or at lunch. Quite differently in the evening, I would apply it strongly at a party, in a club, at a bar, or a concert, and this fragrance has the power to stand out even against really sweet scents. It is not a fragrance for those who prefer subtlety; it definitely cannot and does not want to be.
If you enjoy a spicy, sharp, woody, slightly sweet, smoky, dark, masculine scent, you’ve come to the right place. The Spaniards from Barcelona have created a great fragrance here, even if the bottle has led some people's imaginations in a different direction. It’s worth taking a look at this scent and possibly adding it to your collection.
