The night
... the time has come. The bottling of this magnificent fragrance is coming to an end.
The perfect reason for me to write a more detailed review of this gem.
If you are willing to pay this exorbitant price, you get a perfume that is anything but ordinary. To be honest, I don't even know what to call it properly.
It took me a long time to get used to this DNA and this absolute POWER - when I received my bottle, the first 2 sprays were a real SHOCK! This brute animalic note at the beginning is really not for untrained noses - I was met with a really phenomenal cloud of cowshed/ cheese and slightly ammonia-like acidity. The whole thing goes a bit in a fecal direction.
In my opinion, the saffron intensifies the oud component extremely at the beginning. I thought to myself "WTF! Who wears this voluntarily and pays a lot of money for it?"
Nevertheless, I gave the fragrance a chance and let it steep.... many, many hours later, the oud became very pleasant on the nose, saffron also receded somewhat, the incense and rose joined in, a slightly pleasant animalic note remained in the background, the sandalwood in the DD gave off some warmth and woody nuances. The fragrance becomes really nice in the DD and stays there all the time, it is noticeable, so really perceptible over 15h but without being annoying. I don't think it's a screaming characteristic.
Takes a long time to enjoy the fragrance, but the reward is there - as soon as it has arrived in the dry down.
