This fragrance is primordial cozy and cozy, reminiscent of incense fragrance without all the harmful combustion products thereby have to breathe and still pollute the environment with it. The scent is expressive and unique, you can't mistake it for anything else, vanilla, orange, spices, ylang ylang soothe the senses and take me on a sensual journey into 1000 and one nights. Scent is warming and cozy and hopefully will stay with us for a long time. I as a man have no problem spraying the scent on my pajamas to go to bed with and have sweet dreams. zzzZZZZ zz ...

Smells spicy and above all very aromatic, still some classic wood to it, all in one a very successful mixture for little money, the whole negative comments I can not join at all, because probably the price must have played a negative role in the fragrance evaluation.

What is a minus for me is the compatibility on the skin, since the mixture burns with me quite, since I would rather recommend use on clothes.

Otherwise, the Halbarkeit with about 6 hours, for everyday life is also completely fine.

P.S. - 3 years later...
Unfortunately, after Lilial removal from the recipe - has become only a watery Abklatsch
From former fullness and power nothing remained. :(
From fragrance it was a Dali Pour Homme (1987) twin.

The whole line of Black Opium is in my opinion a total flop, no character, no expression, no special recognition value, everything basically has this cheap, fruity-sweet and in this case Foral Shock just flowery-fruity-sweet mainstream character, absolutely arbitrary, interchangeable and basically negligible. There will be no Ooh's and Ahh's in this fragrance and when asked "What are you wearing?" one would probably be surprised that it is supposed to be a YSL - which used to stand for style, revolution and exclusivity. The hammer, moreover, is that for this fruity-sweet synthetic plörrchen, with which presumably bottle is more expensive than the contents, still very high money requires.

Uff there is very difficult for me to classify this smell somewhere. Yes, if I may join the other comments - the fragrance is certainly something "special" and I feel like I was back to the beginning of my perfume creation experiments when I experimented with geranium oils and how many people who have already done something like this know how dominant geranium oils can be. Of course such mixtures always ended up in my litter bin at that time, but if you like to wear such a thing today, then I consider it a compliment for my art at that time. Nevertheless, I have to say that it is fair to say that although I don't like this fragrance and which is too simple and fitting to me with the Geranium on Vanilla-Minzaromen-Kombi, it radiates a certain cheerfulness, although fair to say that this kind of cheerfulness can also be very annoying. I would not wear it myself and certainly not at the price at which it is sold. So to all who want the same mixture only much cheaper, I still have some bottles with "secret ingredients" at home ;)

P.S.; At the end comes the cedar wood vanilla base with residues of this previous bähh geranium note, which I don't like at all. I am now looking forward to more surprises while testing this surreal expensive brand.
