For me it beats the 2nd version by miles, because of the more natural feel, and the cinnamon-like drydown. Now I see how it build that rep.

It's very different from every other Areejes and its flankers. A very understated floral/rose. Subdued, yet intense and long lasting

It is an exceptional, complex, dry and balanced take on wood, where the oud and the sandalwood are balanced to perfection.

It pretty much covers two categories for me. Best floral oud and rose/oud.

Of course it's not a natural artizan one, but for me it's absolutely unique and I love that ink note in it. Creed's most unique one imho

Probably the best non-gourmand chocolat-oud fragrance, in the artisan realm.

It's more about the bready aroma than coffee to me which is very strange but I actually like it. I can't see any similarities with like ROII

For me it's probably the best take on a purely rose fragrance profile. It's all about the complex rose all the way.
