Antidotte

I've owned this fragrance for so long that I can't even remember when and where I bought it.

The fragrance starts typically 80s, quite herbaceous and alcoholic.

From the heart note onwards, after 10-15 minutes, the fragrance becomes quite pleasant and I can actually sense the chamomile. This phase is also the best part of the fragrance.

A very faint vanilla is then added in the base until the fragrance finally runs out of steam.

Typical eau de toilette in terms of fragrance performance....but a fragrance with a unique selling point.

The worst thing is the small bottle and the atomizer...which tends to drip when sprayed.

So, supposedly a counterpart to Paragon, I can't and don't want to say anything about that.

Now many people don't like the bottle....I don't think it's bad at all...at least it's something different from the many simple glass bottles.
The fragrance itself is buttery soft...it doesn't offend...a little sweet, a little fruity with something floral and ...yes, in a word, simply creamy.

I have received compliments from men and women at work...I had to ask if you can smell the fragrance well...because I am really smell-blind with it.
If I sniff my arm or shirt directly, then yes...but otherwise I don't even notice it myself.

The fragrance is definitely unisex....if not more for women.

As I personally like fragrances that have a bit of a kick, it's going into my wife's collection...she's delighted.

Yes, I too am tempted to buy fragrances by the hype.
This is also the case with this candidate.
For me, the bottle is a bit playful and it also looks good when it stands next to the many "classic" bottles....but that doesn't make it bad.

I deliberately don't go into similarities to other fragrances or whether it's a dupe, because with thousands of fragrances on the market, there will always be similarities.

About the fragrance.... I don't find it masculine at all...rather feminine or at least unisex.
It's simply a beautiful floral fragrance that always works.
I think it is closest to the leather fragrances without being too harsh.
This fragrance is "smooth" and I find it difficult to filter out individual notes.

The notes listed are: Apples, pink pepper and rosemary.

Cloves and floral notes.

Oudh, vetiver, tiger nut, labdanum and patchouli.

For my nose, I most likely perceive subtle clove, the floral notes and patchouli.
If you're keen, which I'm sure many women are, you can go for it and at 16 you don't have to think twice.
I will give my bottle to my wife.... I personally found 3 great new fragrances this week that are exactly to my taste.

I have just opened the box...in which the fragrance was delivered about 2 weeks ago.
I am no longer surprised by this high-quality packaging from Lattafa, many western fragrance houses can take an example from it.

The bottle is also beautifully made, with the golden and ornate lettering and pattern. There is a heavy, high-quality cap to boot.

From the first spray, I am surrounded by a cloud of oud...a beautiful sweet, balsamic oud with a slight animalic edge.
You have to keep smelling your hand...it's that beautiful.

The fragrance doesn't undergo any major transformation for me...it's simply a beautiful, high-quality blend of oud, styrax and other spicy components.

The following notes are listed on the manufacturer's website:
Top notes: Wormwood, spicy notes, styrax.
Middle notes: Leather, iris, jasmine, cedarwood, tuberose.
Base notes: white musk, patchouli, vetiver, amber, oud.

If you like spicy, oriental fragrances, you've come to the right place

For little money already many years ago in my possession...I have just tried it again.
It starts off very nicely herbaceous and spicy...supported by a hint of lemon, which blinks out coyly.
Reminiscent of the 80s.
The fragrance then hardly changes...an insider tip for people who like herbaceous-spicy fragrances.
Especially as it is still available.....
