Is the hype justified?

A slight hype is definitely noticeable - lately, I've been hearing perfume influencers talk about the fragrance house Zielinski & Rozen, specifically about this scent.

That's exactly why I had to check out the fragrance for myself and see what it's all about.

The notes mentioned in the name are all clearly perceptible. Especially in the opening, neroli and black pepper stand out.
Over time, the fragrance evolves: amber becomes increasingly noticeable and develops into a creamy, slightly ambered finish. Overall, it is a spicy scent with a clear structure and a certain depth.

The price that Zielinski & Rozen is asking for the fragrance is - at least from my perspective - absolutely fair. You get a scent with true niche character, which also comes in a wonderfully authentically designed bottle (even if that should be secondary).

To return to the title of the review:
Yes, the attention for the fragrance is justified.
A fairly priced scent that clearly distinguishes itself from many comparable perfumes through its character. For me personally, not a classic blind buy - but definitely worth a recommendation for testing.

What hype? I have the fragrance, it's really nice, okay. So far, I've only heard Leni talk about it. The scent is currently sold out, but they only make small batches anyway. There's definitely no hype to speak of here.

You're right - "hype" might be too strong a word. Still, I think there are some indicators that suggest otherwise, and you can definitely notice the growing attention. I've also seen the scent mentioned by other smaller influencers, which contributes to that perception.
