Warning: Do Not Try This at Home
I recently purchased the fragrance in the beautiful bottle from T...x blind, because I was very curious about it.
The listed notes sound interesting and practically invite you to get to know them, don’t you think?
What I acquired, however, was not a perfume. The liquid smelled like nothing, to be precise, very subtly chemical-synthetic. Acetone? Another solvent? Something else? No idea. I could not detect any perfume-like fragrance notes in the scent.
I left this unfortunate bottle sitting for a while, hoping that the perfume might reveal itself. Nothing happened. So I had to dispose of the bottle.
I really feel...ed. Such a shame about the money.

P.S. This is already the second fragrance from Pascal Morabito that has caused me such disappointment. The first was Gold Edition. This one tried, not without success, to copy "Black Orchid" by TF, but also smelled a bit weirdly chemical and even triggered an allergic reaction in me.
Although I like "Perle Verte," "My Diamond," and "Black Agent" by Pascal Morabito and even own the first two, I now want to finally learn from the experience and not buy any more Morabito fragrances in the future.

A Noble Powder Scent for Me
Errai is a very fine, feminine, floral powder scent. A powder scent of great craftsmanship: not from the powder box, not from the cream jar, not from the sweet, yellow pollen. It is not dry but also not aquatic, it is not too sweet, it has green and fruity elements and a lot of flower in it, and all together creates a seductive and delicate Fleur. In the heart, a cool iris emerges and remains. Now I understand why I liked the scent immediately: it’s the iris. It is an iris scent, but not a pure one, rather in a successful interplay with other notes.
With the additional spray, the scent was further intensified. And the scent stays, and stays, and stays on the wrist into the night. Such a beauty. Definitely going on my wish list.

Something for Sweet Tooths
I had to test the Majestic Oud, of course. (Almost) everything that has musk, or rose, or incense, or oud, or leather, or amber on it must go on my wrist and under my nose :)
What can I say: The Majestic Oud smells mainly like toffee or chewy candy to me: finely sweet-caramel, creamy. Period. I don't perceive any leather, bergamot, or resin. Over time, the sweetness diminishes a bit and the scent becomes more pleasant, creamier, but at that moment, it’s already fading.
What can I say: the fragrance is definitely in the right place for sweet girls and will surely appeal to men as well. However, it hasn't completely convinced me yet, but everything can still change.

A Great Incense
Yes, the substance of Majestic Oud is a fine, dry smoke: beautiful, noble, balsamic. This smoke immediately reminds me of Encre Noir: here too, you can smell something of the dry herbs (sage) through the fine smoke, although without the sweet-green, bright vetiver note of Encre Noir.
Later, a hint of dried fruit reveals itself in the veil of smoke, but at no moment in its life can the scent be described as fruity-juicy or even sweet.
I find the combination of notes quite successful; the scent fascinates me, it is very pleasant and easy to wear (also by women, although it may lean more towards the masculine side).
The longevity and sillage are quite good.
Let's see, maybe one day I will decide to purchase the fragrance.

The Flower Child
Sagira is a flower child, I only see it on women. The notes come together to create a remarkable whole: the scent of an unknown tropical flower. A little nectar-sweet, a little fruity, somewhat cool, well composed. It remains this way until the end. The only change: I find that the scent shifts slightly over time towards something polished and creamy.
What personally bothers me in the composition is the subtle acidity. I think it comes from the violet - the ingredient that I often perceive as cool and specifically sour. I have had my difficulties with violet notes in the fragrance pyramid on several occasions. It was the same with Anvers by Ulrich Lang. But that is not always the case.
By the way, my family testers were not enthusiastic about smelling the scent on me. "It's okay," "not bad" was their verdict.
In any case, after a long back and forth, I think that the scent is probably not my cup of tea, although I am convinced that it is of good quality and will find its appreciative wearers.
